A Spiritual Use of the Atomic Habit Journal

I’ve always struggled with journaling—until now.

A new tool helps me combine Bible reading, journaling, gratitude, prayers, discipline, and habit tracking. I’ve been using the Clear Habit Journal from James Clear for over a year now, and let me show you how I’m using it in my spirituality.

The Journal’s 3 Parts

If you haven’t read Atomic Habits by James Clear, you will enjoy it. His premise is that big changes in our lives come from the tiny changes and choices we commit to over the long haul. You don’t need to read Clear's book to benefit from the journal he’s created in partnership with Baron Fig. I’ve used Baron Fig journals for years because of their paper quality and lay-flat binding, so I wasn’t worried about the quality and build of this journal. Baron Fig even sponsored the old writing podcast I did back in the day.

The journal is made up of three major parts:

1) One Line Per Day
2) Blank Pages
3) Habit Tracker

Here’s how I’m using each section for my spiritual life.
