You can use your journal to help you to make decisions.
Choose a decision that you have to make within the next week. The decision can be important (should you accept a job offer?) or trivial (which movie should you see this weekend?)
Write at least a page about your options, using free-writing.
Don't worry about the quality of your writing, but write in complete sentences, and simply follow trains of thought, wherever they may lead.
