Recently, I conducted a survey exploring the obstacles preventing people from journaling (写日志). Therefore, today I introduce to you a practical tool-the MicroMOVEment Wheel. This tool aims to assist you in overcoming these barriers and help you pick up your journal. even at times when you feel unmotivated.
She developed it primarily as a creative planning tool for her writing projects and goals. Although originally targeted at writers, this technique can be used by anyone to complete any project in a fun and creative way.
Here's how it works: Take a blank sheet of paper and draw a large circle, and then another smaller circle in the middle. In the center circle, write down what you aspire to achieve or what inspires you. Remember, journaling shouldn't feel like a chore in your day: instead, make it an enjoyable and expressive outlet. So, craft descriptions for your journal entries that are encouraging and energizing. These are what SARK refers to as the MicroMOVEments. Each MicroMOVEment is five minutes in length. So, in the case of journalling, that would represent a minimum of up to five minutes of journalling in one sitting, on any given day.
Now. imagine you're new to journaling. By setting aside five minutes out of your day. you could write one word in your notebook that sums up a feeling or an experience. The idea of the MicroMOVEment is to create easy steps to get your journal writing or writing projects moving. By keeping the steps concise, they become doable and achievable.
