Our journaling series continues with an exploration of how to identify and pursue your "personal legend," inspired by Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist.
• Three-minute brain dump exercise to clear your mind
• Reflecting on faith, cutting cords, and trusting your path
• Identifying dreams that feel "stupidly big" yet call to you
• Visualizing in detail what life would look like living your dream
• Recognizing what stands in your way (usually ourselves)
• Taking one concrete step today toward your personal legend
• Reconnecting with childhood dreams that may reveal your true calling
• Looking for signs—like moments of peace and unexpected joy—that confirm you're on the right path

Journal prompts:

• What is a dream that feels so stupidly big that it scares you?
• If I were living that life right now, how would you be moving, talking, or acting?
• If I were living that dream right now, what would it feel like or look like? What colors might you see, what music would you hear, or what things might you see?
• What is one action you could take today to start moving toward your dream?
• What is standing in your way?

Book: "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho
