Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right.
So today we're diving intosomething a little different.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (00:03):
We're going to be exploring 50 St Patrick's Day
journal prompts.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Interesting.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Yeah, and they come from this website listallioncom.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
And you know they're all about journaling.
They sell journals.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
They've got a ton of content like prompts and
articles.
But here's the thing aboutthese prompts Okay, they really
go way beyond, just like youknow, shamrocks and leprechauns,
right.
It's more about, you know,reflecting on traditions and
luck and gratitude, evenpersonal growth.
You know, it's almost like achance to do some like deep
self-discovery.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
But all wrapped up in the spirit of St Patrick's Day.
So I'm curious, like when youfirst looked at these, what
really jumped out at you?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
What's really fascinating to me is that they
kind of take you on likemultiple journeys at once.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Oh, interesting.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
You've got prompts that are tapping into your
personal memories.
Then there's other ones thatare reflections on Irish culture
, right, and then you've evengot some philosophical questions
about luck, and then they evenweave in these practical, goal
setting prompts.
So it's this layered approachthat I think, makes them
relevant, like all year round.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Not just for St Patrick's Day.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah, it's like they're saying okay, sure, let's
celebrate.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
But let's also use this time for some like serious
introspection.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
And there are some really intriguing ones in here.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Like this one, reflect on the role of
storytelling in Irish culture.
What's a personal story you'dlike to pass down?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
That's a great one.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Makes you think about .
You know, like the power ofstories and how they connect us.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, across generations.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Exactly OK, this one stopped me in my tracks.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
OK.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
What does the phrase luck of the Irish mean to you?
How can you embrace this ideain your daily life?
It's like wait a minute.
What's that even mean?
Is that just a saying, or isthere something deeper there?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
It's kind of challenging you to unpack that
common saying and figure outwhat it means, like on a
personal level.
Is it about feeling blessed?
Is it about resilience in theface of adversity?
Is it about, you know, creatingyour own luck?
It's a chance to really examine, like our beliefs about luck
and how much control we haveover our own destiny that
(02:20):
encourage us to like translateour reflections into action.
Oh, interesting.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Like there's one that says think about a time you
created a lucky moment forsomeone else.
How did it make you feel?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Right.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
It's almost like taking those warm, fuzzy
feelings of a holiday andturning them into something like
tantal, something that can makea difference in someone's life.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I love how that like flips the script Instead of
waiting for luck to find us,it's like we can be the source
of luck for others.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Holy.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
What a beautiful way to spread joy.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
And create that ripple effect of positivity.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
That really resonates with me.
Okay, so I want to talk aboutsomething that I found really
interesting, like a lot of theprompts about luck.
It's like they're not sayingit's purely random.
It's almost like they'resuggesting that we have more
agency than we think.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
You're picking up on a really subtle but important
thread there.
Oh, ok, you know there is thisunderlying message that, while
you know some things aredefinitely outside of our
control, we can actuallyinfluence what we perceive as
luck.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Right.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Through our actions and choices.
Like there's one that asks youto write about a situation where
you created your own luck RightThrough our actions and choices
, like there's one that asks youto write about a situation
where you created your own luckthrough effort and determination
.
It's a powerful reminder thatwe're not just like passive
recipients of fortune.
We can actively shape ourdestinies.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Totally.
It's not just wishing on a fourleaf clover.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
It's putting in the work.
It's not just wishing on afour-leaf clover.
It's putting in the work havingthe right mindset, being open
to opportunities.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
And that reminds me of another one.
Yeah, think about a time youfelt unlucky.
How did you turn the experienceinto an opportunity for growth?
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Oh, that's a good one .
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It's like, okay, bad stuff happens, but what did you
learn from it?
How did it make you stronger?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
That reframing is so crucial.
You know it's not about likedenying that setbacks happen.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Right.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
It's about finding that silver lining, the less the
seed of opportunity withinthose challenges and, honestly,
that's a skill that cantransform your whole life.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
For sure.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Not just around St Patrick's Day.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
I completely agree.
It's about resilience, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
It's about that ability to bounce back from
adversity and just keep movingforward.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
And that's where personal growth comes in, you
know.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
These prompts aren't just about reflecting on the
past.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Right.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
It's about using those reflections to create a
better future.
I like that, Like there's one.
What is one small goal you canset this St Patrick's Day to
make the most of this season ofchange?
It's like, hey, spring is atime for new beginnings.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Let's harness that energy and set ourselves up for
success.

It's a nice reminder that we don't have to wait for
January 1st to set goals.
We can choose any moment tocreate positive change.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Absolutely, and that connects to another prompt that
encourages us to think about.
You know how those small dailyactions contribute to our larger
goals and dreams.
So it's kind of like a gentlenudge, to focus on that
consistency, on those tiny stepsthat we take each day that
ultimately lead us where we wantto go.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I love that.
Forget the grand gestures.

even if it's just a little bit.
Speaker 2 (05:29):

consistent actions are what leadto those big breakthroughs.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Okay, so I want to shift gears just a little bit.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
And talk about the prompts that focus on gratitude
and reflection.
You know, in today's world it'sso easy to get caught up in the
hustle.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Oh, for sure.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
And forget to just appreciate what we have.

You're absolutely right, and these prompts offer
like a beautiful counterpoint tothat always striving mentality.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
There's one, three things you're grateful for the
St Patrick's Day.
How can you make gratitude adaily practice?
Okay, it's a really simple butpowerful reminder to shift our
focus from what we lack to whatwe have.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
It's like that saying gratitude turns what we have
into enough.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
It's about appreciating the abundance
that's already there.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Exactly, both big and small.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Or big and small Exactly, and speaking of
appreciating the people in ourlives.
Speaker 2 (06:25):

Speaker 1 (06:25):
There's a prompt that says write about someone in
your life who feels like a luckycharm.
How do they inspire you?
Speaker 2 (06:33):

job of offering like a gentlenudge to explore our own
potential.
Speaker 2 (14:50):

our accomplishments.

Because sometimes we're so focused on what's next
that we forget to appreciate thejourney so far, and this prompt
invites us to pause andrecognize our own strength and
resilience.

I like that giving ourselves a pat on the back.

mindset you'd like to leavebehind as you move toward

really identify what's holdingus back.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
And make a conscious choice to let go.

this prompt that asks describeyour ideal self a year from now.
What steps can you take todayto move closer to that vision?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I like that one, it's not just about dreaming big.
Speaker 1 (16:11):

But here's the thing aboutthese prompts Okay, they really
go way beyond, just like youknow, shamrocks and leprechauns,
right.
It's more about, you know,reflecting on traditions and
luck and gratitude, evenpersonal growth.
You know, it's almost like achance to do some like deep
self-discovery.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
But all wrapped up in the spirit of St Patrick's Day.
So I'm curious, like when youfirst looked at these, what
really jumped out at you?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
What's really fascinating to me is that they
kind of take you on likemultiple journeys at once.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Oh, interesting.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
You've got prompts that are tapping into your
personal memories.
Then there's other ones thatare reflections on Irish culture
, right, and then you've evengot some philosophical questions
about luck, and then they evenweave in these practical, goal
setting prompts.
So it's this layered approachthat I think, makes them
relevant, like all year round.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Not just for St Patrick's Day.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah, it's like they're saying okay, sure, let's
celebrate.
Speaker 2 (01:13):

But let's also use this time for some like serious
introspection.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
And there are some really intriguing ones in here.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Like this one, reflect on the role of
storytelling in Irish culture.
What's a personal story you'dlike to pass down?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
That's a great one.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Makes you think about .
You know, like the power ofstories and how they connect us.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, across generations.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Exactly OK, this one stopped me in my tracks.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
OK.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
What does the phrase luck of the Irish mean to you?
How can you embrace this ideain your daily life?
It's like wait a minute.
What's that even mean?
Is that just a saying, or isthere something deeper there?
Speaker 2 (01:53):
It's kind of challenging you to unpack that
common saying and figure outwhat it means, like on a
personal level.
Is it about feeling blessed?
Is it about resilience in theface of adversity?
Is it about, you know, creatingyour own luck?
It's a chance to really examine, like our beliefs about luck
and how much control we haveover our own destiny that
(02:20):
encourage us to like translateour reflections into action.
Oh, interesting.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Like there's one that says think about a time you
created a lucky moment forsomeone else.
How did it make you feel?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Right.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
It's almost like taking those warm, fuzzy
feelings of a holiday andturning them into something like
tantal, something that can makea difference in someone's life.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I love how that like flips the script Instead of
waiting for luck to find us,it's like we can be the source
of luck for others.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Holy.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
What a beautiful way to spread joy.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
And create that ripple effect of positivity.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
That really resonates with me.
Okay, so I want to talk aboutsomething that I found really
interesting, like a lot of theprompts about luck.
It's like they're not sayingit's purely random.
It's almost like they'resuggesting that we have more
agency than we think.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
You're picking up on a really subtle but important
thread there.
Oh, ok, you know there is thisunderlying message that, while
you know some things aredefinitely outside of our
control, we can actuallyinfluence what we perceive as
luck.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Right.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Through our actions and choices.
Like there's one that asks youto write about a situation where
you created your own luck RightThrough our actions and choices
, like there's one that asks youto write about a situation
where you created your own luckthrough effort and determination
.
It's a powerful reminder thatwe're not just like passive
recipients of fortune.
We can actively shape ourdestinies.

Totally.
It's not just wishing on a fourleaf clover.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
It's putting in the work.
It's not just wishing on afour-leaf clover.
It's putting in the work havingthe right mindset, being open
to opportunities.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
And that reminds me of another one.
Yeah, think about a time youfelt unlucky.
How did you turn the experienceinto an opportunity for growth?
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Oh, that's a good one .
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It's like, okay, bad stuff happens, but what did you
learn from it?
How did it make you stronger?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
That reframing is so crucial.
You know it's not about likedenying that setbacks happen.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Right.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
It's about finding that silver lining, the less the
seed of opportunity withinthose challenges and, honestly,
that's a skill that cantransform your whole life.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
For sure.
Speaker 2 (04:20):

Speaker 2 (04:33):
These prompts aren't just about reflecting on the
past.

January 1st to set goals.
We can choose any moment tocreate positive change.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Absolutely, and that connects to another prompt that
encourages us to think about.
You know how those small dailyactions contribute to our larger
goals and dreams.
So it's kind of like a gentlenudge, to focus on that
consistency, on those tiny stepsthat we take each day that
ultimately lead us where we wantto go.
