Guided Journal Prompts
Reflection questions that do the hard part for you — so you can check in with yourself without staring at a blank page.
What makes a prompt guided?
A guided prompt points your attention somewhere specific: an emotion, a moment, a pattern, or a belief. Instead of “write about your day,” it asks something concrete like “what feeling kept showing up today?”
The structure makes it easier to start, easier to stay honest, and easier to notice patterns over time.

How Habit uses prompts
Habit turns guided prompts into a short, 7-question check-in. You tap answers instead of writing paragraphs, and the app builds a personalized reflection from what you shared.
It takes about two minutes, so it's easy to do even on busy days.

No blank page
The question is already written. You just answer it.
Faster reflection
A full check-in takes about two minutes.
Clearer patterns
The same structured questions help you spot what repeats.
Ten for each theme. Answer in your head, out loud, or on paper — and if you want a fresh one, the free prompt generator has hundreds more.
Prompts solve the blank page. These guides tackle everything else — or browse all 14 journaling guides.
They are reflection questions that give your journaling a starting point, so you don't have to come up with what to write on your own.
Instead of asking you to write paragraphs, Habit gives you 7 structured multiple-choice questions. Your answers become a personalized reflection and insight.
Many people find it easier to name emotions and spot patterns when the questions are already written for them.
