October 09, 2020Progressive Party Idea to Share with Neighbors | Build Joy
Would you consider yourself to be more of an introvert or an extrovert? That question is at the heart of this week’s activity, and journal prompts. Whether you are an introvert, extravert, or fall somewhere in between, there is joy to be found in this week’s suggested activity.
JOURNAL PROMPT-BUILD YOUR JOY ONE THOUGHT AT A TIME
This week's journal prompts are about finding a way to include others in an activity you usually do in solitude.
Journal Prompts
What are a few activities you love to do by yourself?

Take some time to journal about the specifics of the activity.

What do you enjoy most about the activity?

Next, come up with some creative ways to share that activity with someone else. Perhaps that’s with your family or some friends of yours.

Maybe there’s not a good way to do the activity with others. Is there a part of the activity you could share with others?

For instance, if your favorite activity is to take a long relaxing bath, you obviously wouldn’t share that. But could you invite a friend to go shopping at a cute shop that carries bath products?

How do you feel thinking back about it?

People you were with.

The color of the leaves.

The sounds and smells of fall.

Journal about a meal you enjoy having in the fall. Is it something you only have when the weather gets cooler? Who were you with the last time you had it?

Do you enjoy certain desserts in the fall?

Apple Pie

Snickerdoodle Cookies

Pumpkin Cheese Cake

Journal about fall traditions you did growing up.

Think back on a time where you had your heart set on something that didn't happen, or maybe it happened, but not how you had hoped it would.

Did you get frustrated and give up? Did you try again? Or did you find a way to make the best of it?

There's no right or wrong answer here. The idea is just to reflect on how you reacted.

Are there any things that you could have done to make your disappointment easier?

Journal about some different ways you can approach a disappointment in the future.

If possible, reach out to whoever you shared that experience with and let them know you've been thinking about it. See what they remember about that vacation and what other memories come to mind while discussing it.
