Product Description
Where were you a year ago ?
What were you doing 2 years ago ?
What were you feeling 3 years ago ?
What were your dreams 5 years ago ? "THE 5 YEAR JOURNAL" will enable you to journalize and plan the next 5 years with what you want, what you have felt, and where you have been. Year by year your entries add to the total summary of your feelings and events, until, on one page you can look back at the past years, up to 5 years - day by day - thought by thought - experience by experience. We tend to be hard on ourselves, not always giving ourselves the credit due for what growth and change has occurred. Journalizing in this Journal and in the Workbook sections, over a 5 year period will memorialize what was happening. Then having 5 years to look back upon, at one glance, can give us a more accurate reflection of what did or did not happen in the past. Recording a relative reflection creates an accurate record of memories that we can then use for assessment and personal growth. This Journal will be a reminder and support, of where we have been and where we want to go with our lives. Even if you already journal, "THE 5 YEAR JOURNAL" can be effective in addition to what you are currently doing. This Journal can be a quick and easy tool for highlights and learning from hindsight. "THE 5 YEAR JOURNAL" has a unique design that allows you to start journaling any day of the year. With the passage of time we gain a different perspective. Time is a healer and what was once hard or unbearable can now make more sense, giving us a clearer picture. Recording and tracking our lives in this Journal can actually bring relief, clarity, joy and laughter. You can also use the MonthEnd Summary, Quarterly Questions, Year End Favorites, The Best and Worst Things That Happened to Me, Q and A Year End, Create Your Own Topic, and Year End Summary as meters to track experiences at a glance. Imagine sitting down, just you or with friends, remembering that favorite movie or favorite song, reading about what you were doing, what you were feeling, or what was happening in your life on a specific date. With this Journal there will be a first hand account of what was, what had happened to you in your life. With the distance and time in-between, you may have a new experience with your past and create a more rewarding future. Imagine passing this Journal on to a friend or family member so they could know you and your history. They could feel your joys and successes, and experience your pains and sorrows. This Journal can also be used for personal or business items, recording important dates, future deadlines, anniversaries, and more. Dates important in your future can now be pre-recorded for a manner of easy reminding. The most important idea to remember about "THE 5 YEAR JOURNAL" is that you now have a quick and easy-to-use tool that can be an asset for your well being. It can enhance and assist you in the many ways that you choose to use it. It can be fun.

 A chronicler's dream! August 24, 2008
I bought the 5 year journal on the eve of my 25th birthday thinking it would be great to chronicle those last 5 years of my twenties. So far I've loved it! Each month has a section at the beginning where you can write your goals for the month, then at the end of the month, there's a place for a review to see how well you did in accomplishing those goals. Each page has two dates, with lines for each year of the five years. My only complaint is that I sometimes run out of space! Each page also has quotes on it designed to inspire thinking and reflection. Yes this sounds incredibly cheesy and yes my family did make fun of me for buying this, but it's the best way for me to chronicle this time in my life. The author includes tips for using the journal which I've ignored mostly, but they seem pretty helpful. This is a great space to keep track of big (and mundane) events in your life and it's much easier to jot down a couple of thoughs daily than to write long diary entries. I completely recommend this item!
Wonderful Reflections February 19, 2008
I started journaling in the 5YJ on January 1, 2008 and should be done in 2012. So far, it has helped to maintain my focus and force me to think of one good thing about my day no matter how hectic it gets. I have recommended this journal to my family and friends. It is such a wonderful way to look back at your accomplishments and the things that were so important to you in the past. Most of all, it is a wonderful tool for GROWTH!!!
The 5 Year Journal - Excellent! January 28, 2008
I love this journal! I write in it everyday. I like it because it gives me a couple of lines to write my thoughts, ideas, and emotions. I do not feel like I have to pour my heart out or write a whole paragraph. I can put my thoughts down in just a couple of sentences. I love the monthly focus and the quarterly questions. Also, I love the fact that I can keep writing in the same journal for the next 5 years. It will give me the opportunity to see my growth and focus on my goals and dreams for the next 5 years.
I would definitely recommend this journal and it was worth the price!
 The down grading of the 5-Year Journal January 20, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is not the first time I have ordered this diary. In fact, I originally ordered this product 5-years ago. As it says, it is a 5-year diary and I decided to get another as I had just completely filled in my original 5-year diary. The first 5-year diary had a plain green cover, but the quality and workmanship could be seen. It was a great product when I first got it and decided to get it again as I liked the handy aspect of a summary all together of what the last 5-years of my life where. In addition, I liked the quality and workmanship. Unfortunately, they have not kept up with the quality they had with the original 5-year diary. In fact, the pretty picture is the only postitive of the new 5-year diary. When I ordered, I expected to get the same quality that was in the original 5-year diary. Unfortunately, I was sadly mistaken as the product is no longer as good as it use to be. The quality of the workmanship has been severely downgraded. In the original 5-year diary, the cover was a plain green cover with gold embossing to a plain paper cover with black ink printing and a picture. It feels more like a book now than a diary. In addition, I see a vastly downgrade of other original work. This book is similar to the original but not nearly as good. The original book size was 10 1/2 inches by 8". Now the book is down to 10 1/4 by 7 1/4. When talking about a normal book this is not much but with a diary it is allot. You have the same amount of lines on the page with allot less space. This means you must write even smaller and put less information on a page. Three lines is not allot of space to write in the first place. In the original, you could change one line into two if you had to, in this version, you really can't. One of my favorite features in the old book was a ribbon that allowed you to mark the pages. This ribbon is not in the new 5-year diary which makes finding you place in the book difficult and time consuming The paper quality on the old diary book was great and it had a slightly different paper that attached the book. This version of the 5-year diary has all white paper of questionable quality. In fact, I hope this is archive paper and will last. Unlike the original, it has the feel of regular paper that you get from Office Max for use in the copier and not the feel of paper used for writing in a diary. Hopefully, this will hold up like the original 5-year diary, but only time will tell if the downgrades of this once fine product will hold the test of time like the original. In my opinion, the individuals who took over after the death of Doreene Clements are not as interest in making the quality product as she was. Her e-mails over the last 5-years prior to her death showed her passion for her work and for her product. I wonder after seeing this 5-year diary whether the death of the creator of this diary means the death of her dream. With the current quality, only time will tell if the downgrades will also mean the death of the 5-year diary.
Travel, Training / Running, Health, AND Daily Log October 22, 2007
I have used this item daily for almost 2 years now for writing quick notes on what my kids doing, running times/training information, health, and travel logs. The format is great for rehashing what you were doing a year or two ago at this same time. It helps to find trends in allergies, cold, training schedules . . . that you would not get in a regular linear journal. The 3 sentence restriction forces me to keep it brief and managable. Just a few seconds before bed is all it takes. Just quick notes on those things you swear you will never forget (but do anyway). I love the subdued cover so it does not attract the attention of my kids.
