My First Ever Journaling Experience | Focus on Progress, Not Perfection


Hi guys!


Hello friends how are you all? I hope you all are fine I am also fine. So today for the first time in my life I did journaling. I suddenly got an idea. I was scrolling on Pinterest and I saw these printable stickers which we can print. So then I got the idea of journaling from this. I chose some pictures like some anime girls pictures some scenery some quotes.


Printing and cutting


Then I got these printed. After getting them printed I cut all of them with my cousin. My cousin also likes journaling very much.


Picking the qoute


Now when we cut everything nicely I started journaling. So before journaling I looked at the quotes to see which one I should choose for today. And I saw a very nice and meaningful quote so I chose it. This quote is “Focus on the progress, not the perfection.”


Explaining the quote


So before starting journaling I want to explain this quote to you a little what it means and why I chose it.

So the meaning of this quote is that we do not need to make everything perfect. In life everything is not perfect the first time. And these imperfections are what that make us perfect. We learn from these small mistakes of ours. So because of this instead of perfection we should focus more on progress. If we are even a little better today than yesterday then this is also progress. If we say it in simple words becoming perfect is not necessary but making progress is necessary. So this was the meaning of this quote.


Process


Okay so now I will tell you how I did journaling. So
as I told you after cutting all these I put them in five separate envelopes so that they do not get bent or anything.

After this I had a small diary lying around which I did not use so I thought I would keep it for my journaling now. I took that diary took a stick glue and started my journaling.

Now I chose a scenery for myself a little nature type. And I took a doll that represents me. And a small background and of course our quote.

First I pasted the scenery on the diary. After this I pasted the background under the scenery and then I also pasted the doll on one side of it.

Now I pasted my quote at the bottom. But on the side it looked a little empty to me so I thought I would draw something with my color markers.

So with them I made small sparks and stars which looked very cute. And in this way our meaningful journaling for today was ready.


Nature


My journaling does not only represent progress but it also represents nature how important nature is in our life. We get happiness from nature. Whenever we are depressed we go near nature and it gives us happiness.


Final result


So this was my post for today. I hope you all liked it. If you liked it then please tell me in the comment section. And if you agree with what I said about this quote then please tell me that also in the comment section. Or if you have any other meanings of this quote I would also love to hear them. Support me as always. Thank you so much. Bye bye.

That's all for today, I will be back soon with something new to share. Until then, stay happy and keep supporting.
