Mastery Journal specializes in several specific demensions -
the formost being gratitude. As has been said, “what you appreciate, appreciates!”  What you notice begins to appear even more.  With this in mind, along with the other focuses listed below, your “Mastery Journal” is an an amazing possibility for strengthening your forward motion.  

What to Write About
In each entry, consider these 4 dimensions and write about what you are inspired to write about.  

1)​ What I’m grateful for and/or acknowledgement of the hand of the Lord in my life.

2) ​Celebration of forward movement- How I’m getting closer to ______.  What’s working for me. 

3) Crashes and Re-commitment.  ​How I moved away from what I want (what didn’t work, or “Today I ____________________ ). What I’m going to do about it is ________ and/or what I’m going to do to guarantee my results is _________________________. 

4) ​Breakthroughs - In connection with the path between where I am and where I’m going, something that’s really getting clear i.e. "What I'm seeing [that's really moving me] is___________").
