Diary of a Restless Mind: A Month of Musings

Diary of a Restless Mind: A Month of Musings is a candid, often humorous, and deeply relatable collection of daily reflections from a writer trying to declutter their mind, one journal entry at a time. With a brain that never shuts off and a relentless need to put words to page, Daniel’s month-long experiment in journalling captures the highs, lows, and everything in between, capturing the chaos, beauty, and absurdity of modern life, creative burnout, and the ever-growing pile of unread emails and Substack newsletters.

Using a mix of wit, wisdom, and raw introspection, Daniel explores the joys and frustrations of writing, the struggle to keep up with everything (and everyone), and the surprising clarity that comes from letting go of perfection. These musings touch on everything from FOMO and JOMO to writing advice, life advice (the questionable kind), Kafkaesque bureaucracy, and why sometimes the best self-care is just getting the words out.

Whether you're a fellow overwhelmed creative, an aspiring writer, or someone looking for short, soulful reads with a side of laughter, Diary of a Restless Mind offers an honest look into the mind of someone trying to make sense of it all.
