12 Lists for Your Daily Journal

There are many things you can add to a daily journal, including your thoughts, what you 
spent your time on, tracking goals, and so much more. But another amazing thing to put 
in your daily journal is with lists. Not just your to-do list, but so many other options.


1. Goals for the Year

Kick off your journal with a list of your aspirations for the year. This can include personal 
goals, career targets, fitness achievements, or simply experiences you'd like to have.


2. Daily Gratitude

Create a daily gratitude list where you note down things you are thankful for. This simple 
act can help foster positivity and appreciation for life's little moments.


3. Books to Read

If you're a bookworm, a reading list is a must-have. Jot down all the books you wish to 
read and tick them off as you complete each one.


4. Bucket List

Everyone has dreams and experiences they want to have during their lifetime. Penning 
them down in a list can be a fun and inspiring exercise.


5. Daily Affirmations

Write down affirmations that help boost your self-esteem and foster a positive mindset. 
Reading these daily can help maintain a healthy perspective on life.


6. Places to Visit

From local spots to global destinations, listing the places you wish to visit can inspire 
your future travel plans.


7. Recipe Try-outs

If you love cooking or want to improve your culinary skills, list down recipes you wish to 
try. This can add an exciting twist to your everyday meals.


8. Mood Tracker

Create a list where you note down your daily moods. This can help you become more 
self-aware and mindful of your emotional health.


9. Personal Achievements

Having a record of your achievements, big or small, can be a great confidence booster 
and motivator.


10. Fitness Goals

This could include workout routines to try, steps or distance to walk each day, or any 
specific fitness targets you have in mind.


11. Movies and TV Shows to Watch

Just like books, there might be movies and TV shows you want to catch up on. A list can 
help you remember them all.


12. Self-Care Activities

It's important to take care of yourself. Jot down your favorite self-care activities or new 
ones you want to try.

Creating these lists in your journal can make it a fun, personalized space that reflects 
your aspirations, experiences, and interests. Plus, they can help bring order to your 
thoughts and ideas, and make your journal a source of inspiration and motivation.
