I make lists... Like books I want to read, movies I want to see, esoteric beliefs I have, quotes... etc. I've paid for online activities that give 30 days of prompts to make lists... gah! It was a good jumping off point...
So, for 30 days, follow the prompts, make a list (easy way to journal,) sticker or washi tape slap as you will and send your papers or journal to your partner.
Please write the 'title' of the list on the top of the page so your partner doesn't have to look up the swap to see what's what.
I tend to write on scraps of paper and then organize into some sort of folder format. Everyone do what works best for them:) Just keep it organized somehow.
Btw. I find that when you take extra thought in the 'why' of the items on your lists, you life changes in unexpected ways... not a guarantee, just personal experience:)
Prompts:
10 things you want right now
10 'happy day' things that you do (things you would do if you had the day to yourself)
10 things you like to watch on Tv/youtube/Netflix etc
10 book recommendations with a few notes on why
10 of your favorite foods or places to eat
10 questions you want the answers to (anything from what you would ask a psychic, God or just simple answers to puzzling things.)
