By writing, you are going to get a bunch of benefits so you will get a better you.

Preserving Your Mind

Writing will help you to train your brain to make statements arranged neatly and compile idea well. That skill will help your informative, innovative, and creative ideas are transferred to people who need it. This also works to diary writing. By doing so, your mind and heart will work and show their best to you, making a very powerful feeling you have to be poured to the paper — or computer if you use it to write. It also helps you to learn faster — for a journal or essay writing and paper-based writing, because the very act of using a pen or pencil to put things on paper can help you better retain the information you are writing, according to research. That’s because, in the physical act of writing, signals are being sent from your hands to your brain to build motor memory

Making a Good Habit

Have spare time and have no idea what to do? This situation if not handled the way it should, will lead you to time-wasting which bad for yourself. Making an essay or diary will help you to avoid that habit — time-wasting. You can avoid time-wasting by doing research, collecting ideas and facts, to write an essay. According to a study from New Zealand researchers, expressive writing by writing down your thoughts and feelings after a traumatic event can make physical wounds heal faster. This especially works in diary writing!

By doing so, you will read more, more and more. This encouragement may be a form of concern for the low statistics of teenagers who read.
