Journaling together as a couple in a relationship is something not many couples do. That’s a huge missed opportunity. Journaling together will help you learn more about yourself and clarify what’s important to you. It will help you reflect on what’s important to your partner. Besides, journaling together will help you to process differences before they become a burden.

Let’s be honest, there are always challenges. But relationship issues are only a problem when you don’t have the tools to deal with those relationship problems.
Many people journal as a private experience, as a way to reflect and get insight into their own lives. I started keeping my own journal when I lived in Mexico as a kid. It was a way for me to process the major events happening in my life. Two years later, I spent seven months living and traveling in Europe. Again, I journaled. Since then, keeping a journal has been a part of my life. I still have a box of all my journals. In fact, they’re so important to me that I’ve scanned them all through, too.

Why 7? Well, usually the first 3 or 4 are obvious. So, this gets you past the obvious. Remember, it’s often the little things that carry us through the long haul.
If you’ve ever heard of SMART Goals, you’ll know that setting an attainable goal needs to have a timeframe. You can chose three months or as much as a year. If you’re love is new, 3-6 months is good.
