Why Journaling Can Help?
In this article, I will share some simple journal prompts for Generator Energy Types. These prompts will help them identify what is causing them to feel frustration (their “not self”) and explore what actions they can take to bring them back into alignment with their strategy (“to respond”). When Generator’s are able to do this, they will experience satisfaction with life and things will feel more effortless.
Before I get the journal prompts, I want to share some additional benefits of journaling. Journaling can…
- Reduce stress and anxiety because writing down your feelings and thoughts can be a very effective way to release tension and stress.
- Improve your emotional intelligence because writing about your emotions can help you better understand and process them.
- Boost your creativity by stimulating your creativity and helping you generate new ideas.
- Enhance focus and clarity because writing in a journal can help you organize your thoughts before making decisions.
- Lead to greater self-awareness and personal growth especially when you reflect on your actions and associated beliefs.
- Improve your memory. When you write things down, you may have a better recall of events, thoughts and ideas.
- Help you identify negative patterns and shift to positive thought processes..
Generator – Your Strategy for Alignment is to “Respond”
- Follow the “hell yes’s”
- Listen to your sacral response which you will feel in your body and it will be unexplainable – “ I don’t know why I want this but it is appealing to me”
- When you say yes to too many things that are a “no” the universe will gift you with burnout.
- The way you know you are living your design? You will feel satisfied – “I feel lit up by life” or “high on life”)
How to know when you are out of alignment
- You will experience frustration – things in your life feel like they are not flowing or moving with ease.
- You may feel uninspired, blah, not in flow with life, nothing is moving, or stagnant.

- You will feel a sense of satisfaction – life feels exciting, life is lighting me up, feeling full of life or high on life.
Tips for leaning into your design
- Set boundaries and say “No” to things – If you don’t feel strong enough to say “No” to something, ask the universe to remove the thing, give you ways out or the strength to say “No”.
- Create Space – Doing nothing is better than doing something that is leaking your energy. Remove the things you can to create space for the universe to send new opportunities and ideas.
- What can you shed? – Consider the burdens that you can let go of, especially the things you are doing out of a sense of duty.
- Be Curious – Engage your 5 senses everyday, out in the world, TV, or social channels. Pay attention to everything in front of you and be aware if you are really interested in something or not.
- Make a plan – If you cannot remove yourself from the situation, person, project or commitment right away, create an exit strategy (e.g., save an exit fund)
- Change the energy of the thing – If there is something you cannot remove yourself from or take off your place, consider taking on a new perspective or finding a way to make it enjoyable. If it is hard to imagine such a shift, ask the universe for guidance or help.
