One, or the other, or both? In this case, the one and the other are strategy and mindset. Both are needed to build a successful business. You can't change your mindset overnight or without some work, but if you follow this method, you'll be able to leverage journaling for strategy and mindset.
When we talk about creating a personal brand or building a business, we often go straight to strategy. But, when we focus solely on strategy, it can take quite a while to get clients and reach the monetary goals as quickly as we’d like.
Why? Because if we don’t have the right mindset or are wondering if we made the right decision or are worrying about the what-ifs, we aren’t going to be successful.

The Power of Mindset When Kim launched her business, she was worried about money and bad things happening that she wouldn’t be able to make enough money to support herself and her family. All of these negative concerns and worries started to come to fruition.
It was after a serious illness, that Kim realized she had to change her mindset.
Mindset carries power for reaching your goals.
Spending energy on fears and what-ifs and worrying causes bad things to happen. Worrying is like praying for the bad things to happen. Our thoughts are incredibly powerful. They are there to either propel us forward or hold us back.
Manifestation Manifesting is putting your mind to something, and because you put your mind to it, you took the actions to make it happen.
To have a successful business, you need equal parts strategy and mindset.
Without a positive mindset, you can do all the strategic actions, but not see positive results, and vice versa. You can have a positive mindset, but without action, nothing will happen.
Clear intentions are key. You can document your intentions through journaling for strategy and mindset to work collectively for the success of your business or life.
A Process that Emphasizes Journaling for Strategy and Mindset C – Circumstance
T – Thoughts
F – Feeling
A – Actions
R – Results
Circumstance The circumstance is what is truly going on around you. It can be proven in a court of law.
Thoughts Thoughts create a feeling.
Feelings Feelings are what drive your actions.
Actions Actions give you the results you have.
Results Results are the outcome of actions.
It is important to distinguish between a circumstance and a thought. A circumstance is provable in a court of law.
Think of this example. A friend says, “I am fat!” That is not provable in a court of law. The number on the scale is a fact, but saying you are fat is not. The circumstance is the number on the scale.
Action can be action, reaction, or inaction.
When we don’t approach situations looking at circumstances, we will feel stuck and out of control. How do we change this? We have to get rid of the unintentional thoughts that hold us back.
Create a new intentional thought to replace the negative, unintentional thoughts. Consciously doing the work daily and taking the actions. Brain dump in your journal. Then, go through everything and highlight the circumstance and the thought and then pick three and model them in the C.T.F.A.R. model. This action will help create new intentional thoughts.
