Scrapbooking-- a writer's inspiration

As a writer of a one-of-a-kind journaling workbook “ A Year in Serendipity” http://
tinyurl.com/serendipityjournal -written to help people in their life and career goal
attainment, I have come to experience first-hand some of the unique insights
regarding how to use scrapbooking in both my professional and personal life.

There are some very wonderful and inspiring practical reasons for scrapbooking.

Yes, indeed, it can be a multifaceted technique/approach to career and life management and planning. For example, it can be applied by writers in autobiographies, diaries and even as a professional career portfolio/webfolio/ blog.

Scrapbooking, in a life skills sense, can be employed to focus on motivating and
inspiring moments , and even to retrace a journey to life transforming/ life –changing moment(s). For instance, you can immortalize a pictorial of a significant historical event you were involved in , or an episode of personal achievement that changed your life forever.



Scrapbooking can be one way to figure out who you used to be, how you got to be who you are today, while at the same , rediscovering the journey that got you there.

The possibilities for its uses and benefits for writing are limitless.
