1. Make it part of your routine. For instance, make it a weekly habit to have coffee on Sunday morning and update your journal. If you pair writing with another routine activity, (especially an activity that you enjoy doing) then you'll be more likely to complete it.

2. Hang a wall calendar in a high-visibility location and put a sticker/tally mark for every week that you successfully log. It's an easy visual reminder of your progress, and it can bug you if you don't log for a week.

3. This may not be the advice you want, but not logging for a week isn't the worst thing - it's okay to have a week now and then where nothing of note really happens.

1. Yeah I think I need to shift my time. Originally I aimed for Sunday evening/night since I considered it the end of the week. At that time I found myself to tired or caught up in another activity more often than not. Sunday morning sounds better, especially as a way to get it "out of they way".

2. That sounds like a good motivator!
