On this podcast, Ryan Holiday discusses 7 strategies that can help you develop a highly effective journaling habit. 

Almost 2000 years ago, Marcus Aurelius stole time away from his incredibly busy life full of obligations to write in his journal. By some incredible stroke of luck, that journal survives to us today. And though it is full of countless pieces of wisdom and important lessons to us, perhaps its greatest teaching is held in its very existence. 

The fact that this person who thought so deeply and was so highly effective took the time to regularly write out his thoughts is one of the most important things we can take away from "Meditations."

Writing, as a system for representing speech and thought, has the power to express our emotions while leaving a lasting trace. Uncompromising in revealing our inner confusion, it sometimes goes beyond introspection itself when it comes to exploring our inner world. And above all, it leads us to greater humility.

This is precisely the aim of the Cogito section, accessible from the homepage of the website. It guides you step by step in reflecting on life’s big questions.
