How And What I Write In My Journal: How To Maintain A Journal

I started maintaining a journal only a month back. Although I had heard about the numerous benefits of journaling , I always felt that my brain could keep a record of everything. Besides, I never knew how to write a journal. I explored some journaling pages on Instagram and after seeing all those beautiful journals, I gave up!
