Today was another day of my genius hour. For todays genius hour I decided to focus on researching if writing notes to self will affect ones emotional state. I looked at websites, studies and TED talks. It was interesting to find that most of the results said that writing notes to self can increase ones happiness as it is a process of recognizing and seeing the good and ignoring the bad. Summing up majority of my findings suggest that writing notes increase 5 aspect of ones life. These 4 aspects are 1)Happiness 2)Success 3)Gives you something to look forward to 4)Confidence/Esteem 5)Positive life experiences and meaning. Though I found a lot of common findings on writing notes to self, my difficulty was finding negatives about writing notes to self. I have yet to find negative factors, thus I will use that as my focus next genius hour. Something I need to do before my next genius hour is to reflect on how writing my notes could be a negative thing. When writing my note today, I am reflecting on what I have learnt about the positive outcomes found from writing a note.
