Abstract: A journal system for promoting a person's personal growth and a method of guiding journal entries are provided. The journal system includes a journal page configured to receive entries from a user and a plurality of repositionable guides. Each repositionable guide of the journal system includes a different intention to assist the user in making an entry on the journal page. The repositionable guides are individually positionable on the journal to provide the intention. The journal system also includes a storage location for the plurality of repositionable guides. The storage location is separate from the journal page so that the plurality of repositionable guides are not viewable on the journal page until the selected one of the plurality of repositionable guides is positioned on the page by the user.
