The greatest individuals of our time have written memoirs, autobiographies and jou als. Why is this? What motivated them to chronicle their experiences, thoughts, emotions, and beliefs? How can one benefit from this proactive practice? There are many reasons why keeping a journal can serve personal development and improve productivity quite well. One of the best reasons that I have experienced is the fact that it provides a “landscape” of the personality, emotions, and belief systems. It is like creating an instructional guide, in which you can reference different times and enhance your reflection and cycles of your life. Definitely allows you to view how much inner growth has occurred. The journal can serve as a confidant, if you are unable to share at the moment. Helps to identify talents emerging and life purpose. There are many important reasons for beginning a journal, and the results of it will be as unique as the individual. What you will need to start the self-journal process: 1. A journal of your choice. Determine what size, whether you want lines or blank page, design, etc. 2. A pen or pencil. 3. A sentence or grammar corrector tool. 4. A commitment to continuing the journal. It is okay if you do not write in it every day, but make an effort to be consistent in entering into the journal. First, do not force a reason to begin. Purchase the journal and keep it handy is how to start. In your mind, the reason is just to express yourself authentically. For example, if you happen to admire the beauty of nature, write about how that interaction inspired you. Or if you happen to stumble across a quotation or bible verse about confidence that impacts in your life, write about it. It’s just that simple. The idea is not to have any expectations of how or what to write. Just write about anything. It should be effortless to chronicle your experiences.

One of the comics that I admired for her sharp observational humor is Carol Leifer. Well, Carol just published a very funny book called, "When You Lie About Your Age, The Terrorists Win." She writes about embracing her life and her age and her writing is insightful and hilarious. I just had the good fortune to interview Carol about her life and her new book. ec. We both grew up on Long Island but we never had any play dates together. Another thing we have in common were fathers who were both naturally very funny.

ec: Before we delve into the subject of Intuition and how it has impacted your life, in all areas of your life, can you give us your definition of Intuition? I think there are still some who feel that getting in touch with your inner voice only happens in a smoked filled backroom with a woman named Mistress Sylvia and a crystal ball. TR: Well that has been known to work but there is a better way. My definition of intuition is that still inner voice within that we all have but have learned to discount. Einstein called intuition the highest form of knowing.
