What I’ve been doing for a while now is doing daily voice or video logs rather than written logs. I find it removes any barrier to journaling.
The app I use called Day One will show you previous entries “on this day” from previous years and it can be fun to look/listen back on.
- mettamage 4y agoThanks DINKLEBERG! (What show was that again?) Thanks for the app tip, you removed my barrier to immediately try it today. And I can skip the lengthy blog post too!
- dinkleberg 4y agoHaha thank YOU for the message. That makes me happy to know someone recognized the name. It was from the TV show The Fairly OddParents. And I've been loving the voice/video logs. It's so much easier to just talk to my future self for 5-10 mins rather than writing it all down.
- mettamage 4y agoAh yea Fairly Odd Parents. So much fun :) I've tried it today for the first time. The transcription thing is awesome! It is a little less useful as I speak in Dutch and English and tend to switch spontaneously, but just to have a separate app that can transcribe if I really want it to is awesome.
- wnolens 4y agoI like to talk things out with the Google Recorder app on my Pixel phone. The app automatically (and for free) transcribes as you go, so you also have a readable and searchable version of your entry. It's probably my favorite phone app after maps.
