  • Question
    What can I do if I feel like someone's watching me when writing in my diary?
    Community Answer
    Make sure you're writing in a very private place, such as under the covers in your bed. You could also find a place that nobody knows about. I have a corner in my room that has some of my favorite things in it. It's private, and it gets me inspired if I don't know what to write about. Also, hide your diary so nobody can read it when you're not writing!

    Experts say it takes anywhere from three weeks to two months to develop a new habit, depending on the complexity of the task. Until this time, put a reminder on your device or a sticky note somewhere to remind you. It can also help if you do it at around the same time every day as part of your routine.

    Try covering the front and back of your diary in patterned paper. Simply use craft glue or Mod Podge to attach a sheet to the front and the back, then let it dry. Or, bedazzle your diary using glue and sequins for a fun, sparkly cover.
