Set a phone reminder to do it at the same time everyday

You can write daily affirmations that you want to say everyday. Anything that's on your mind, literally just jot it down right away

It's ok to write about the little things that happen throughout your days

You dont have to force yourself to write everyday. I keep a journal whenever I feel down and write when the time comes.

Tbh I wouldn’t make your first goal to be do it every day. I think it’s best to start of smaller, and maybe to make a goal like 2-3 times a week at first, and if you can keep up with that add more until it’s every day that you’re journaling. It could help you get used to it without having the stress of not being able to miss one single day, and it could make it more enjoyable. That could make you more motivated to continue it also
