I Used Journaling to remove 90% of Useless Stress and Scale My Business Faster.
I used to stress constantly about my business. Every small issue felt like a crisis. I worried about things outside my control. I overanalyzed problems instead of solving them.
The stress didn’t just stay in my head—it ruined everything.
❌ My sleep suffered. I’d lie awake thinking about what could go wrong.
❌ My testosterone dropped. Chronic stress wrecks hormones, making me sluggish and unmotivated.
❌ My mental health declined. Anxiety, burnout, and frustration became my norm.
❌ My energy levels tanked. Stress drained me, making deep work nearly impossible.
❌ My business slowed down. Instead of executing, I was stuck worrying.
❌ My mental performance collapsed. Decision fatigue, overthinking, and self-doubt took over.
If I didn’t fix this, I wouldn’t last as an entrepreneur.
Journaling Eliminated 90% of My Stress.
Journaling changed everything. Here’s why it worked:
📌 It forced me to slow down. Writing things out turned my stress into something tangible instead of letting it spiral in my head.
📌 It helped me separate real problems from fake ones. I could see which problems actually needed my attention and which were just mental noise.
📌 It gave me control over my emotions. Instead of letting stress dictate my actions, I processed it logically.
📌 It helped me let go of useless stress. If something was outside my control, I stopped giving it my energy.
📌 It made me a problem-solver. If a stressor was within my control, I’d journal about solutions and create an action plan.
The Journaling Process I Used to Fix My Stress
Every day, for 2 weeks, I followed this 6-step framework I created myself:
🔍 Step 1: Identify the Stress
• I wrote down what was stressing me out in as much detail as possible.
• This made it real and specific instead of just a vague feeling.
❓ Step 2: Is This Stress Real & Worth It?
• I asked: Is this something that truly matters? Is it within my control?
• If not, I wrote out why I was stressing over something that didn’t deserve my energy.
• If yes, I moved to Step 3.
🛠 Step 3: Find the Root Cause
• I kept asking why until I found the root cause of my stress.
• Example: I’m stressed about missing a deadline.
• Why? → Because I’m behind on work.
• Why? → Because I wasted too much time on low-value tasks.
• Why? → Because I didn’t prioritize properly.
• Solution: Fix my priority system.
⚡ Step 4: Create an Action Plan to Fix the Root Cause
• I wrote down 1-3 action steps to solve the problem at its core.
• If something couldn’t be fixed immediately, I created a prevention plan to avoid it happening again.
🙏 Step 5: End With Gratitude
• I wrote three things I was grateful for to shift my focus from stress to opportunity.
📝 Step 6: Stream of Consciousness Writing
• I finished with 5 minutes of free writing to clear my head before ending my session.
The Results? Stress Gone. Business Growth Up.
After just a few weeks of journaling like this:
✅ I felt lighter and in control—no longer reacting emotionally to problems.
✅ My sleep improved, which boosted my energy and focus.
✅ My hormones rebalanced, and my drive skyrocketed.
✅ My decision-making became sharper—less overthinking, more execution.
✅ My business started growing faster because I was operating at a high level.
90% of my stress disappeared, and I started scaling my business with a clear, focused mind.
