The Five Minute Journal : A Happier You in 5 Minutes a Day | Simple Daily Guided Format - Increase Gratitude & Happiness, Life Planner, Gratitude ... productivity (Five Minute Gratitude Journal)

Not a genuine copy! Really disappointed

This is not the original Five-Minute Journal, even if it uses the same name. After I received it, I tried to figure out if it would be useful in its own right. There were no guidelines or instructions, just various worksheets and templates with boxes for monthly and weekly goals and little boxes to tick goals and tasks when done. I felt it would be hard to use this book effectively, especially with very little space to fill or write things in each of the boxes or the lines provided, and the time and commitment to do a journal would have been better spent on either a better designed published journal or even just your own blank journal. Perhaps some people might find this format useful, but not me. It would be much better for the publisher or Amazon to show pictures of the pages within so potential buyers know what to expect and if the format suits them.
