I want to say "thank you" to Nancy and Linda for their posts here. By sharing your experiences about the value of developing a book to record important information, you are gifting folks with a valuable tool for them to consider. Mel has asked me to share my experience as well. MY JOURNALS During my journey to recovery, I placed a high value on keeping track of my discovery and other insights that I viewed as important. And so I began to write things down. By doing this, over time, I found a way to have on hand, an information source where I would record personal essential information for me to remember. I decided that I needed a record of my healing journey to revisit so I could stay on track. Journaling then became my way of seeing and fulfilling the wisdom, knowledge, and science of how to heal. And I also found comfort and strength through writing things down. My journals/book, alongside my bible, became my best friends. KEEPING IT SIMPLE Your book is your personal guide to restoration. I believe Mel has given you a simple, yet valuable set of instructions on how to proceed. You will need an 8x11 three hole binder with dividers. Start your first page with Mel's web site address, phone number, coaching hours, and email. Next, divide your binder into sections. Identify your own set of sections where you want to keep what you think is valuable to record. Let this be the foundation for how to organize your thoughts. I think it should include sections for each of the "sum of the parts" for starters. And maybe a section for the "guiding principles" where you can document your own discovery as your journey unfolds. It might help you to include a section for the main manufacturers, where you can record the protocol contacts, dosing schedules and details of special offers etc. Maybe a conference call glossary to revisit past recordings of calls as well. Lastly, I believe that a section where you can write about your own individual progress is important, so that you can track how far you have come in your healing journey. This will encourage and assure you that you are succeeding! I hope this will help you to see that there is wisdom in journaling. It can become a wonderful tool to lead you into remission "sooner rather than later." And don't forget to make your bible your best friend. It is through prayer and relationship with God that we find deeper discernment about how to heal. Lean into him for wisdom too! Strength and Love....and stay the course! Peter |
