The points don't really get us anything, except points...not sure why but I like collecting them!

I would also love it if we got points for journalling - and for using the new 'notes' features ;)

I use view spark points to direct me to utilize the features of the site, it takes me to much of what I want to track and keeps me active in my journey. I find the points themselves fun to see add up, kind of like getting stars in school on the star chart.

I don't really journal now, but I probably would start if there were points involved.

I agree
I live writing in my journal
It gives me time to collect my thoughts because I don't always have someone to vent to

I use the journal everyday. It makes me stop and think about the events of my day and how I feel about them. I kinda cheat, when I write in my journal, I put something in schedule an appointment to get the point.

I think it's a really great idea and will motivate people to write in their journal more. I had been keeping a journal for years but last fall school and work got in the way and I stopped. I'm really excited to have a new place to vent!

I do agree that journaling helps me with weight loss a lot more than the videos did. And it would be nice to have points reflecting things we do to help us reach our goals. I really like the idea. I hope spark people will seriously consider it! I would like to get points for things that show my efforts toward weight loss. Kind of like the exercise and food journal!

Just checking in to see how the suggestion for points for journaling was going. I would sure like that better than the video which only had a few vedios on it and there is never anything new.

Points for journaling would be great. Maybe a choice of each entry being private or public. I would definitely use it more if I earned points.

I love this idea too. I dont journal as much now and getting points for journalling would certainly motivate me.

i love this idea. i often find members' blogs to be even more insightful/revealing/helpful than their message board posts, and i feel like people should be rewarded for sharing like that.

I'd like to suggest SparkPoints for journalling.

It's a great help to some and points may get more people writting - a nice self therapy.

It's something that I am proud of doing and it helps me work through some of my problems and concerns.
