Benefits of journaling:
Journaling can provide a space for self-reflection, personal growth, or creative expression. Documenting your thoughts, emotions, and overall life can have many benefits, such as decreasing stress, improving your mood, and helping you process different events in your life. Journaling can also increase creativity, help you document your successes, and gain clarity and perspective.
Before we get to the list of ideas and suggestions, here is a great site to take a test to identify your unique personality type. Now lets get to the recommendations.
Here is a list to help you discover the perfect journaling style for your unique personality:
1. ISTJ Personality
You are known for patience and hard work, being calm and responsible, and may love traditions. You are practical, logical and take care of your responsibilities, so you may enjoy calligraphy/handwriting journaling. While learning a form of writing of the past, you will be challenged to develop a new skill while answering journal prompts. Your patient personality would excel at gaining this new but vintage skill.
2. INFJ Personality
You are the idealists and deep thinkers. This gives you a creative imagination and a different way of looking at the world while always being the advocate in the room. INFJ personalities, may do well with dream journaling. Dream Journaling is a method where you can write down your dreams or document your aspirations for the world or yourself.
3. INTJ Personality
INTJs are strategic thinkers with a plan for everything. You don’t take anything at face value and always question everything. You love ideas and theories, which is why mindfulness journaling may do you wonder. Since you take an analytic approach to everything, why not take the time to analyze, dissect the things you engage in or notice and document these observations and your thoughts about them.
4.ENFJ Personality
ENFJs are charismatic. You love to connect with people and want nothing more than for others to thrive. You tend to be idealistic about the future, yet those ideas may be abstract. Professional journaling is a great option for you, it provides a space for you to write down all the ways you want to serve others and be able to work through how to bring those ideas to reality.
5. ISTP Personality
ISTPs are the explorers and experimenters of life. Some may find you mysterious, but you love to learn about life through your senses, often by building and creating. Hence scrapbooking journaling would be ideal for you. Create to your heart’s content by cutting, pasting, and producing works of art.
6. ESFJ Personality
ESFJs are the life of the party. You love to connect with others, so you may often find yourself organizing events to make others feel happy and supported, which brings you joy. For you, I recommend a playlist or song lyrics journal. Not only will you have a place to keep a potential playlist for future parties or events, but you can also go deeper and write about the memories and personal meanings linked to these playlists or song lyrics.
7. INFP Personality
INFPs, you are the poetic and altruistic personality type. You can get lost in your daydreams, fantasies, and the deeper meaning of life and human nature. But in reality, you make for great listeners and helpers. A spiritual journal might be the exact type of journal you need. Jot down those daydreams and fantasies, make notes on your analysis of life, or document your spiritual journey.
8. ESFP Personality
ESFPs are energetic and born to be front and center. If there is a spotlight, you are sure to find it, but you make sure to share that spotlight with others. You want others to have great experiences as much as you do. This is why a memory journal would be great for you. Write down all your fun adventures and go even further, adding scrapbook items you may have saved to capture the memory.
9. ENFP Personality
ENFPs are the free spirits of the group; if there is a box, you will not be found in it. You have a positive outlook on life and enjoy connecting with others on a deep level, making you wise and thoughtful. Consider a relationship journal; jot down the interactions and connections that truly make an impression on you. In the end, you will have a journal of memorable connections and experiences you treasure.
10. ESTP Personality
ESTPs, you are a go-getter; why talk about it when you can act now? Full of energy, you are the epitome of a social butterfly and do not shy away from living life to the fullest. I recommend travel journaling because there is a high chance you will find yourself in faraway places, but even if you don’t, you can still write about all your outings in your hometown or city.
11. ESTJ Personality
ESTJs are the organizers of the group; if something needs to be brought together, you are the right person for the job. Your motto for life is doing what is right and leading others to come along for the ride. Consider bullet journaling; it will allow you to create the perfect planner to organize your busy life.
12. ENTJ Personality
ENTJ’s – hello, our natural-born leaders. Move over challenges and obstacles because this is the environment you thrive in. You take charge and push yourself to get things done. Goals journaling may work best for you. Write down daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly goals, write how you plan to attain them, document the journey and find the joy in being able to check them off once accomplished.
13. INTP Personality
INTPs – you are known for being logical and great thinkers. Life, in general, fascinates you, and you enjoy questioning, analyzing, and debating, even if it’s just in your mind. So try your hand at a stream-of-consciousness journal. Write down all those ideas, theories, analyses, and notes from the readings you are likely consuming. It will be interesting to look back on your thoughts and how they may change with time, and who knows, you may even write about the next great invention.
14. ISFJ Personality
ISFJs are the givers of the group; nothing makes an ISFJ happier than caring for others, especially those closest to them. You are the personality that will never fail to show support for others and only wants the best for others, which is why a gratitude journal could be ideal for you. Jot down all that you are grateful for to keep reminding you of your fortunes which will give you that continued energy to provide for others.
15. ENTP Personality
You are the debaters, small talk is not your cup of tea, but bring on an intellectually stimulating conversation, and you are in bliss. You are not one to conform without questioning and analyzing but still can find humor in the topics you discuss. As a result, you may be an avid consumer of knowledge, and a commonplace journal may be perfect for you. Document what you regularly learn from the content you take in so you have information to back you up the next time you play devil’s advocate.
16. ISFP Personality
ISFPs – you are an introvert in disguise because you outwardly exude an adventurous personality. You are open-minded and up to explore the world and what it offers to the fullest, making you an ideal activity companion. Consider an adventure journal because you are sure to have many experiences to document. It will be great to look back at all your experiences and the people you have met along the way.
