Every week I go live on Sundays on my Facebook Page, JJS WRITING CAMP, and we talk about a specific journaling prompt. We free flow write in response to the question or prompt and through that, discern what actions we may take because of what we discover and uncover.
What I learned today is neither facebook nor linked in allow embeds of the videos they host on their sites so – next week I will also stream on YouTube so I may share here.
In the meantime, here is a link to the livestream on Facebook at the Writing Camp with JJS Page. When you watch that replay, I offer ideas and the prompt more fully than just in writing.
Satisfied, Passionate, Purposeful: What do these mean to you?
- Free flow write for up to 5 minutes on any on all of these words. What are you doing when you feel the most satisfied, the most passionate, the most purposeful?
- How are you spending your time so that you will spend more of your time feeling satisfied, passionate and purposeful?
- Your subconscious mind will give you details you have yet to discover when you free flow write rather than planning every words to say.

I love this! What good idea!
I like the instruction to freeflow about a specific word: I tend to freeflow write all the time anyway.
Have a beautiful rest of the weekend!

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing these suggestions and the link. I’m going to try this in my morning journaling.

Doing a Facebook live weekly is a great way to connect with your audience. Not only do you get to share your content, but you also get to answer any questions that your viewers may have.
I try to do this, but fail miserably – LOL. I stopped trying. I applaud you for doing this.

Hi Julie: Very good idea. It’s like doing Julie Cameron’s Morning Pages. I did a few free Wild Writing workshops with Laurie Wagner who has similar concept. She reads a poem a couple of times and then we write for x number of minutes. I found it very effective. If I have time, I will give you

This is an awesome idea! I’m so happy I came across your blog. I will definitely be checking in and using your prompts!

Julie, you are one very productive creative woman! Did you craft that giant mug? I’m sure your writing prompts are powerful for many!

I used to participate in WordPress’ prompts before with my other blog. It is very helpful when I run out of ideas.
Will try to write about purposeful following your instruction.
This is a nice post.

I am writing about purpose today – with a bit of passion thrown in, too. I start my day with writing practice so all sorts of gobbledy gook shows up I am not attached to and it helps my other writing come out better…. 🙂 Thanks for reading and commenting!
