Journaling without any goal besides understanding myself better, particularly my beliefs, had a similarly transformative effect on me. I stopped feeling angry and entitled to things I didn't have, and I became extremely positive in my social interactions and in my head. For a long time I credited knowledge graph technology for the change, but now I think it was more likely just the practice of committed, written introspection. (The graphs definitely helped me navigate my notes faster and with less redundancy, though, which mattered because there were a lot of them.)
