Ever feel like you’re going through life on autopilot? We get so caught up in daily routines that we rarely pause to check in with ourselves. Journaling is a great way to reflect, reset, and gain a deeper understanding of who you are.
If you’re ready to dig a little deeper, here are 10 powerful questions to ask yourself in your Settini journal. Take your time, be honest, and see where your thoughts take you.
1. What truly makes me happy?
Forget what should make you happy—what actually does? Think about the small joys and big moments that light you up.
2. When do I feel most like myself?
Is it when you're creating, exploring, helping others, or spending time alone? Noticing these moments can help you design a life that feels more you.
3. What’s something I’ve always wanted to do but have been too afraid to try?
Write it down. What’s stopping you? How would it feel to take the first step?
4. What are the biggest lessons I’ve learned so far?
Life is full of ups and downs. What have your experiences taught you? How have they shaped you?
5. If I had no fear of failure, what would I do?
Imagine there were no obstacles—what dream or goal would you chase?
6. How do I want to be remembered?
Fast forward to the future—what do you hope people will say about you? This can reveal what truly matters to you.
7. What’s draining my energy right now?
Be honest. What (or who) in your life is leaving you exhausted? What steps can you take to protect your peace?
8. What is one thing I can do today to take care of myself?
Self-care doesn’t have to be fancy. It could be resting, setting boundaries, or doing something you love.
9. What do I need to let go of?
Old habits, past mistakes, unrealistic expectations—what’s holding you back? Writing it down is the first step in releasing it.
10. What do I want more of in my life?
More laughter? More adventure? More quiet moments? Define what you want and find ways to invite more of it in.
