You can write about things such as relationships, personal goals and things you're grateful for. Perhaps plan a specific time of the day to do your journaling e.g. before you go to bed or on a morning so that it becomes a consistent thing.
Dentaldreams could provide further advice
Hope this somewhat helps
Best wishes.

When I started journalling, I would do a page for the month, with a calender marked with events and my goals for the month.
Then every day, I would just write about what I did during the day. Eventually, you'll develop a journaling style - I write more about how I'm feeling and my sense of self and anything I'm worried about

Firstly there are lots of different types of journals, typically nowadays bullet journaling is probably the most common; i.e creating monthly/weekly spreads to keep track and chart multiple things. This however (personally) is very time consuming. If you like to get creative and like to go with the flow then this is the way to go.
Currently myself I like to journal all aspects of my life separately - this can probably seem too much at first though and is completely dependent on what your reasons are for keeping a journal, but I’ll give you some rough ideas.
Personal; track your mood, sleep, diet, goals.
Work/school journal; track your targets and keep on top of your tasks.
Book journal; keep a log of the books you read and write a summary- likes/dislikes
Plant journal; keep track of your planting seasons and when you sow your seeds etc.
Art journal; for letting lose and just having fun
The beauty of journaling is that you can combine everything that I’ve listed and so much more in one simple book if you like or even have multiple. Whatever suits you best!

I love journalling I have a normal journal where I just write my general thoughts about how things are going what I've been up to. I recently got a journal to write darker creepy or atmospheric things in like creepy mini stories and I am going to draw some little pictures in that one. I also have one for pinkie who is my child part where I can write about trauma and nightmares and feelings to do with that cause recently I've not always felt like me and felt like child me was alongside me in my head so I named her pinkie and I'm trying to use a journal to control her so she can process without randomly popping up.
