When starting a new work at home business it is very easy to become consumed by it. We spend so much time trying to get the business up and running that we may end up becoming burned out and lose our motivation.

For those who enjoy writing in journals and diaries, doing so can be very therapeutic and enlightening. Not only for the shear enjoyment of crafting words if youre a wordsmith and building sentences correctly if youre a grammarian, but for the result and revelation of thoughts that come to life. By capturing the trains of thought, whether in private as in a journal, or in a more public forum such as a story for a newspaper, writing can be surprising and very useful for shaping scattered thought processes.Even though I do not understand how the brain works and how thoughts and ideas are developed and expanded, I know what happens in my mind as I begin to write. Just as is happening right now while Im preparing this article, I really dont know what the final message will be and what the product will look like until I reach the end. I have an idea, and its not well formed yet, or, honesty, ready to be communicated, but it is coming to life and developing as I write. Each sentence becomes its own stepping stone to the next thoughts, and after the process has repeated itself enough times the idea begins to take shape.I think that because this thought developmental process sometimes occurs when a person is writing, the practice of journaling can be very insightful since the writers thoughts are formulated as they are written. The end result reveals the secret, and the secret is what may not have even been known by the author until that revelation. Therefore, personal journal entries can sometimes reveal more than mere facts; ideas can be morphed from abstract to solid.When the clearer revelation is revealed, the author or the artist, if the journal is prepared as an art journal, possibly tells what had previously been hidden. The introspective lens sharpens the image so the underlying message can become better understood. The image of the message becomes clear, and the thought process will have taken its form.Once the idea takes shape, then how is it matured? Must it grow by trial and error, or can it be nurtured with a design in mind, an end result? Therein lays the challenge! The personal motivation and ambition of the thinker will define the results of the thought process. The result will be orderly growth of thoughts with intention, or it will be chaotic, disorganized thinking. The opportunity to determine which it will be is the benefit of introspection that can be gained from being faithful to journals or diaries and being observant of the results.
