Sunday Journal Prompt

“When you pen down your dreams, an inner strength and divine power is activated.” 

– Lailah Gifty Akita


Journaling has helped entrepreneur, media mogul and philanthropist Oprah Winfrey throughout her life. Raised in poverty and subjected to abuse, she says journaling helped her build mental stability and strength. By looking for things to express gratitude for in her journal, she found that something always showed up.

Beyond writers like Mark Twain, Virginia Woolf, Vladimir Nabokov, John Cheever and Cheryl Strayed, famous journalers include thinkers and inventors like 
Winston Churchill, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, and athletes such as gold medalist Katie Ledecky and marathon-runner Eliud Kipchoge. Perhaps, as author Lailia Gifty Akita says, penning down our dreams activates an inner strength and power to work toward fulfilling them. 


What can you imagine for yourself? Pen it down to unlock a deeper strength.
