8 Ways To Fill Your Journals & Notebooks

[@Thefitty]

*Somehow I always want more notebooks than the ones I can finish! Thanks for these ideas.*

[@Lyn_DS]

theFitty Same! I never finish a notebook 😳

[@doggopooping9346]

OMG same

[@MariaHerigstad]

same ahah

[@blackkcat2364]

Same lol ;D

[@suzettehibble4984]

Omg gosh I have Ike 11 empty notebooks

[@nojerama788]

1. Life lists/listography notebook 2. Ideas and plans notebooks - songs, poems, projects, goals, planning a room 3. Book of Quotes 4. Moodboards and dream boards 5. Sketchbook 6. Stream of consciousness 7. Gratitude journal 8. Memory journal

[@maggiet3776]

I use one journal just for books so like I write lists of books I want, books I buy, books I've read and my favorite authors, series, characters etc and then at the end of each month I do a review of the books I read that month. I thought I'd mention this cos I know you like to read and you might like this idea.

[@emansalama2769]

Maggie T great idea💖

[@maggiet3776]

Tracie Carver thank you.

[@arirose6310]

I have a journal for my anxiety. So whenever I'm feeling anxious over something, I write out my thoughts related to it and just kinda word vomit all over it until I've found myself reassuring myself that everything will be ok instead of how wrong things can go. I've found that this really helped when I used it and I really should get back to it again :)

[@hannahxu]

My problem with notebooks and journals is that after I spend money on a fancy or cute notebook, I hate making it messy or unorganized - everything in it has to look perfect, so I'm always scared of messing up and that causes me to never start. Tips?

[@doreenmaclean2225]

Hannah Xu I totally used to be the same! I started buying just cheap spiral bound notebooks that weren’t super pretty until I got used to them going from pristine to messy! And now I actually love how messy they get at the end of things, they looks well-used and loved!

[@beccacadogan5015]

Saaammmmeeee

[@berniceagyeiwaa7416]

hannah 😂😂😂😂 same here

[@empyreal84]

I also buy pretty notebooks, but I think that they're so pretty that they deserve to be filled with something useful but I can't think of anything so I keep them blank lmao

[@oatcaramellatte8206]

In my experience buying normal notebooks don’t make me feel inspired to write on them. So the tip I can give you is just writting on it, whatever you want. Messy or organized is yours and the best part about it is that is so personal and full of just you and your thoughts, experiences, and perspective.

[@aliaespinoza239]

you're such an authentic and dedicated youtuber and your creativity is incredibly inspiring. eternally grateful for you are your videos kay!

[@StephanieInYourFace]

I've been going through a breakup of a long-term 5 year relationship and your videos have helped me so much. You're so inspiring and humble to watch. I also, live in Toronto and it's cool that you are familiar/relatable in a sense. I've started writing in my journal everyday since your video on reacting to your old journal entries and honestly, it has helped so much. Just wanted to say, thank you for making videos! I hope you do a meet up one day! xo, steph

[@caitlindurrant154]

Hey, I hope everything turns out okay in the end, and I hope you find someone else who makes you happy

[@StephanieInYourFace]

Caitlin Durrant thank you, thats really sweet of you! Im doing much better now. ☺

[@caitlindurrant154]

good! you deserve it :)

[@riazahmed6424]

Trust yourself and break rules

[@rosemarymetallic9741]

Awww be strong, be brave! I believe in you❤️

[@CaylieandTim]

Definitely love the idea of having an entire journal dedicated to gratitude!

[@TheMindfulMillennial12]

Caylie and Tim same!! I think the amount of depression and jealousy would go down if we just focused on OUR positives!

[@sweatandyoga]

Yes!!! I go in and out of gratitude journaling but it makes such a huge difference in my life when I do 💕💦

[@AnastaciaGabrielleFlores]

Caylie and Tim I’m so close to 100 SUBSCRIBERS! Will you guys help me! I subscribe back ❤️

[@_Vosaic]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who likes notebooks and journals #twins

[@hibausman1601]

yaa ... meee tooo

[@foxxbryant1587]

ugh me too ..that and arts and crafts stuff lol

[@KatieFilms]

Stationary is the best 💗

[@kristyna.4073]

this makes me wanna cozy up under a blanket, light up a candle and write my sould down

[@amymarcucilli2795]

Kristýna. Do itttttt!!

[@aurixiaispreppy7454]

You'll end up burning the blanket

[@teala8678]

Consistent people are probably the best kind of people. I am truly amazed that you are actually posting a video everyday throughout the month. I can't even imagine how much work it is. Cheers to you and all the other people like you. People like you inspire me

[@amirafitzpatrick3755]

I'm obsessed with these journal ideas omg

[@alessm2206]

I watched so many of your coffee talks because I am at a weird spot now and I needed some guidance and your videos definitely helped, so thank you, Kalyn!

[@rangerthompsonmusic472]

Aless M I've found Kalyn's videos very helpful whenever I'm in that kind of situation. I'll be praying for you and I hope you can get everything sorted out very soon!

[@halsievlogs]

My friend bought a 5 year notebook where you write something each day for 5 years to look back on! She got it from Indigo and I thought it was something you'd be into!! 💛

[@sellyok]

it's haley This is actually so cute of you to comment lol

[@megslemp2906]

Same! I'm on year 2 rn

[@JessicaLynneViveiros]

Along the same lines as a gratitude journal, I always like to have a prayer journal. Reminds me to sit down and pray but also see what has changed in my life.

[@MissAshyboo]

okay this filming/editing is so amazing i love it omg

[@BookishBobbi]

a good one i have for tracking my depression is a mood journal. every night i with rate my day's mood(s) out of 10 (10 being amazing, and 1 being awful) and then write a small comment to explain why i felt like that, and i find it really helps me to see when i'm going through episodes of low moods, and when i'm really having a good time. and it also helps to track what affects my mood too.

[@mejvlogs]

Thank you for consistently putting out content that’s not only beautiful and well done and thoughtfully presented, but stuff that inspires me to actually go make positive actions in my own life! Loving your videos lately 🙌🏼

[@MS-vz7pg]

I really can't believe it. I don't notice how the time flys by whenever I watch your videos. One of the few channels I really enjoy so much.

[@JocelynLehman]

I wish I could LOVE this!! I love having a million journals full of different things and I honestly never leave chapters without a new one or 5. I’ve been dying to see what ideas you have for journaling, thank you for this!

[@naviasamarie3743]

This is prolly wrong.... BUT I have a Trash Talk/gossip notebook where if I heard something or just have negative thoughts about someone or have secrets or juicy tidbits about people then it all goes in this notebook and I just feel better because I SUCK at keeping secrets so being able to talk about it (even to a journal) makes me feel better. Plus I got it all out of my system so I don't gossip about it to actual people. Don't do this unless you know for a fact no one will ever find it. I burn the pages every few weeks too.

[@aurixiaispreppy7454]

That reminds me of the burn book from mean girls

[@shellystiles6101]

I wrote half a composition note book of letters to friend I was having issues with to keep me from yelling at her and never gave them to her because we went on a week long trip and I left it at home and blew up and we no longer friends so those type of journals can save a life

[@MegrexO9]

I just LOVE the bond you have with your dog! I can’t help but comment on each video you upload with Bentley involved in them ❤️💙

[@vilmabrownie]

A gratitude notebook was my greatest idea when I started doing it! Feels so good to fill it especially when I have a bad day. Makes me appreciate the things that are good even if my day has been the worst. :)

[@sapphire714]

I'm hooked on list making but your videos have helped me organize them more efficiently. So thanks girl! My one notebook in particular is one that I make my daily to do lists. It's held me more accountable and I miss less items when I have them in a set place. Your videos help me more that I ever thought something online could. So thanks lady and keep on shining

[@reneerobinson6929]

I have definitely been addicted to pretty journals and notebooks!!!! I believe I currently own 25 that are empty right now, and one has been set aside for years for quotes that really move me. I have many just copy and pasted into word documents all jumbled up. I need to read through them and hand write my favorites into the pretty journal I have set aside for them!

[@claudiacorr9306]

I see Ireland on your travel list and like please, your videos have given me the ability to go back to school after two years of severe mental illness causing frequent absence and months of not going even once. I’ve gotten my life back together and my grades and health back in check and your videos have been such a huge factor of that. I’d love to meet you and just thank you for the impact you’ve had on my life

[@ElizabethWeeks7]

I freaking loved this video. I fill up a ton of notebooks and journals and I'm so glad I'm not the only one. This definitely inspired me, too!

[@danabrooks7313]

If you suffer with chronic illness or pain or depression it's good to keep a journal on how you feel what you eat and any medication you take daily that why you can go back and see if anything helps on good days vs bad days.

[@leemolloy1112]

Dana Brooks my mom has RA. I always suggest she do this!

[@yai627yeac]

Annotations from books (quotes, favorite scene, review, etc.) So you can go back and remember how you felt about a certain book or scene. Is really helpfull when you read ebooks or you simply don't want to write on your books. And I want to make the list notebook and the favorite quotes. But loved all of your ideas. Love your channel, keep being you. 💖

[@amandasachs4385]

This is like modern day scrap booking. Love it ❤️

[@oliviapodraza2597]

a lot of the “fill your notebook” videos i watch are hit or miss, and i’m glad to say that yours was a hit! loved it💓

[@Retrochicklet]

I know I am late watching this video, but I really enjoyed watching it. Another idea maybe to use to fill up a journal or notebook is tips from favorite youtubers. For example, I wrote down in a notebook some of Kayln’s ideas to fill up journals or notebooks and how to make them fun and entertaining. I watch other youtubers for all kinds of things and sometimes it is hard to remember everything that is said over time. My grandma does the quote notebook already. I thought it was cute that she does that.

[@jessiswanlund7765]

I have a notebook filled with different songs for different occasions like wedding, birthdays, and confidence boosts. Then I make actual playlists on Spotify later. Sounds like extra work but I enjoy having a notebook filled with music I’m into at that moment for future reference. ❤️

[@KevinRupard]

These are genius! You inspire a lot of my diy videos. Thank you so much for doing what you do.💖 you've got a new subscriber.

[@kelseyw2225]

It's crazy for me to think that there's a bunch of people who haven't saw the Northern Lights before! When i saw that on your bucket list i just felt blessed that I can see them year around! They are just amazing! I love watching it everytime they're out :) And as for the notebooks, I always buy at least one whenever i'm out shopping or shopping online lol! Now i have some ideas to fill them in :D Thanks! I love your videos!

[@MissReject23]

Got so excited when I saw what the subject of the video was, I have a weakness for notebooks and journals =) I already have a gratitude journal, a moodboard/dream one (which I fill up with Law of Attraction quotes and stuff too) and a classic journal. I really like the idea of a 'stream of consciousness' one, I think I'm gonna try that and also the lists and quotes ones. I really like to print out all positive quotes (the cute ones from pinterest) and put them all in a 'positivity notebook', it becomes such a help when I'm feeling down or need an extra boost! Loved the video as usual

[@LaceyCampbell95]

In love with your aesthetic 😍

[@TheChooken83]

I love how creative you are, I wouldn't think of using different colours and doing bullet points with planes etc and the popcorn is cute

[@lexilopez100]

So happy I saw this video today. I’ve been stumped on what to put in all my journals and notebooks! Thanks! Excited to try these ideas out

[@AlyssaLovejoy]

Yaaasss! I love that you journal too. All my friends think it's weird I have a journal 🙄 they're missing out! It makes me feel so much better

[@barbaramichael-grover8246]

making kids journals to sell at craft shows, sold some at farmers market this summer . big hit . now taking old books and pasting cardstock on to pages , adding kid friendly embellishments and stickers. great vid got some great ideas. not confident in my font skills BUT .loved your printing thanks a bunch!!

[@Victoria610k]

Keeping a gratitude journal near your bed is a great idea! I love all of these! I always just use one but I really like the idea of multiple 💕

[@24MJsasay]

I'm new to your channel, at first I was just checking around if I'll follow or subscribe as I always like MissLizHeart.. but then I didn't notice that all through the first day I watched your video since September, I never skipped a day without clicking that notification if it's you. So I concluded, yeah I'm addicted to you! ;) can't resist that realistic positivity you are sharing!! So now I have two main favorite KZbin stars! Good job for spreading positive vibes and strong spirit!! more power!!

[@annabelled4002]

I'm SO glad I found you, because you are seriously the only person I've found, that has the content (makes the right vids) that I need and want! Thank you! Btw, you are a great artist, and you have AMAZING handwriting! 😄 I liked and subbed!

[@_Vosaic]

KAYLN!!! You should try bullet journals and bullet journaling

[@taylornicole3025]

Tori Florez I second this suggestion!

[@kirsten_christine]

Same thought!

[@leuwahmvictor2316]

I tried a bullet journal, let’s just say I am not very persistent

[@_Vosaic]

Leuwahm Victor Neither am I , but I feel like because Kalyn has such a heavy schedule that she’d be very good at it. I find that with bullet journaling you also need to find what fits you

[@BarbsSeidemann]

Love your videos! Especially these ones cause when I watch them, I feel so much more calm and relaxed. Thank you always! You keep me motivated to do what I want.

[@sonjawilhelm4318]

You are so creative and artsy!!! These are such good ideas and all of your art/doodling is so amazing!!! I had no idea you were so talented!

[@brookelynwilkerson]

I love how creative Kalyn is. She's such an awesome person.

[@mollylebrun8137]

Sometimes when I'm doing a bunch of tasks I'll turn on Kalyn's videos in the background just to listen to her voice because she's so inspirational and soothing...that sounds super weird hahaha but I always do it!

[@liv2741]

All of your videos are literally so cozy and relaxing

[@Lyn_DS]

I love lists and notebooks and all that stuff! Thanks for all the ideas, I definitely need to start with travel diaries and restart with my gratitude journal. Oh and you look amazing with your glasses! xx Lyn

[@puggythepug6263]

This is like the only original ideas I've ever seen. Usually they are prompts but these are really cool ideas! Great video

[@BeautBeauty17]

You literally read my mind with this video. You actually got me into notebooks. I love the designs on some of them. But I had no idea what to put in them!

[@harrisonpamela40]

I have gotten away from my gratitude journal as in was trying a more goal~oriented style, but I don't stick with it or get the same warm feeling. Thanks for reminding me❤️

[@gabiashcroft8685]

The bucket list point about publishing a book has me buzzing. I would 100% buy 💖

[@nivi8092]

i feel you so much, when i do buy notebooks i really feel complete and happy.

[@chloee_fituk]

Oh my god your drawings are amazing!!

[@taimaashraa9532]

Chloe Elouise IKR!

[@risharaniga5525]

Ikr! I was just thinking that. Can't wait for youtober 2020!

[@nefertitimontoya]

This video reminded me of the impact you've had on my life as a person and everything I've learned from you over the past years. Keep inspiring, it really does have an impact ❤

[@nykalawarren2642]

I love the new room! Makes this filming so cozy!!

[@bermudabride1]

I have a ton of notebooks & journals & I'm always writing lists. That last book reminds me of a smashbook. Thanks for the ideas to fill my notebooks.

[@ilona789]

Great video! I love your style. Thanks for the ideas I will certainly use those. I never can stop buying notebooks because I love the cover. I have a lot of them and didn't know what to do with them beside store somewhere. Thank you again!

[@FarahNuit]

I love notebooks! Here is a list of mine: -A notebook for personal growth. I write about how I feel, about personal development books I read, about what I want to do to be more happy, about people or quotes that inspires me... -A notebook to practice stream of consciousness in the morning. -A notebook of seasons and time passing. It's a notebook both creative and both to motivate me to fully live the time that passes. For the month of October that I associate with the autumn, I stuck photos of inspiration, leaves fallen trees and a Starbuck ticket, I made a bucketlist that I check gradually, I note autumn recipes, music that I listen to at this time, movies etc. -A gratitude notebook. -A notebook for my affirmations. It's a tiny book as big as the palm of my hand where I wrote ten affirmations that I read aloud every morning to anchor my intentions of the day. For example, my third affirmation is "I owe nothing to anyone. I do not need to be perfect, I allow myself to live as I am, with my qualities and my faults". -A Harry Potter notebook. Because I love HP. ❤ 'hope it inspires some people! :)

[@sierranesen7562]

I loved this video. I have a sketch book. It’s my absolute favorite thing. Also your an amazing drawer!! You should post more of your art work even if it’s just random. I’d totally have you draw something for me for a tattoo. My favorite journal idea that you showed, that I’m gunna try doing is a memories one. Such a great idea! Love you & thanks for being such an inspiration! 💕

[@ashleymichelreads]

I'm obsessed with buying a bunch of composition notebooks and journals lol but rarely write in them. Love that you made this video because now it's going to help me fill them! 😊 Thank you! Glad to have your videos in my life.

[@sarahmcgrath4746]

This was such a cool concept! I'm always struggling to figure out what to write in my notebooks and I literally sit there with a blank space wondering what to put. You for sure gave me some inspo!!

[@erikasmith4134]

youre videos make me so happy and feel at peace like everythings gonna be okay.

[@TrueChristina]

Love love love this! I journal every day, more of a stream of consciousness but I also want to start one where I draw some pictures and write one to two lines a day and have that journal be more of a month long collage of images and things I did.

[@brightboldlife]

I keep a reading journal where I review the books I have read. It’s fun to go back through and see what I read year by year 😊

[@Rowanxx]

I didn’t know I needed this video till it happened 😂😂

[@hibausman1601]

me too 😀😀😀

[@pattycandle3596]

I love all your ideas Kalyn. Thanks to you (since I watch your videos I write down in my journal again and it makes me feel happier). I also have a notebook for my favorite songs in English (because my native language is french) and it makes me practice over and over again and I love music and singing ! Thank you again ! 😃

[@onairwitherika4644]

Love these ideas. There is something so pleasing about using a notebook and actually writing, rather than typing in a phone.

[@shakiraceline2128]

One thing I completely love and what is a great option for people who don't much like writing is keeping a beautiful box in your room and then putting everything that means something to you or reminds you to something in it f.ex. tickets, maps, bracelets, letters, etc.

[@christinamariemoney]

was just telling my boyfriend how you are definitely my favourite youtuber! Everything you post is so unique and inspiring, makes me excited about life :) much love!

[@gabriellamauro116]

Love these vids!! Keep up the hard work girl! I love coming home everyday and seeing a new video!

So many good ideas! Thanks for this video 💕currently I have a inspirational quotes notebook, a book diary, a classic diary, a notebook where I write down good recipes + family recipes and a travel journal.

[@KristenRivera]

All these years of hoarding empty notebooks prepared me for this video 🙌🏽

YES. I always buy so many notebooks and journals because I'm obsessed and I never fill them! I also have a journal I put all my poetry in & a journal for tarot readings :)

[@brianaschino4903]

[@misserinnicole2257]

[@dalemcewan5755]

Am so pleased to find that I’m not the only one with a weakness for notebooks! Wonderful ideas! Thanks! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@tokarenp]

Hi Kalyn :) Can I request a video all about Bentley? When did you get him? how did you decide to get him? what its like to take care of him, how to decide if getting a small pet is a good idea for someone? All your thoughts and advice on getting a small pet.
