How I Got Back Into Journaling

[@DuluthTW]

My life isn't complicated but I like the idea of always having the easy ability to record something that matters. You've definitely got me more motivated to journal. Thanks for sharing!

I have always enjoyed your videos bc you give a fair assessment of different notebooks, and you get right to the point. I hope you’re doing well. Often our habits can wear us down, something we never expect, but they can, and it’s good to take a break, see everything from a new angle, and then replug.

Thanks for coming back occasionally. I don’t have a consistent journaling. But like you I watch a ton of videos and just like to right random things and doodles

I've been journaling and sketching for a while now, I bought a paperblanks flexis and I'm on the last page, your videos are great. Thank you for helping me get into the hobby.

Hi there. Great to see another post from you. I struggle with actually journaling in long written form. I do use notebooks for writing down quotes and other items I like. I do a lot of lists too. Thanks for sharing your recent experience. Life definitely has its ebbs and flows. Have a great weekend.

@@garybruner36 thank you!! Writing several pages can be daunting. I often write short paragraphs and jot down tidbits from my life. Have a great weekend as well!!

I'm glad your inspiration for journaling has returned. After I watched your video on the Leuchtturm 1917 5 year journal, I picked one up to try out. I'm on my second year using it as a main journal and loving it. It is nice having a small space to write a brief summary of the day or an event, because it helps keep the entry more precise and to the point. If I feel like I have more to say about a day, I can write a longer entry in my second journal. Thank you so much for bringing the Leuchtturm 1917 5 year journal to my attention. Pocket notebooks are great. Carry one with me daily for list, ideas, thoughts, and general journaling. Great video and thanks for sharing!

@@PensandPenBlades Aww I’m glad! Thank you!!! ❤️

Hi from Poland. I use Hobonichi 5 year diary. I’m in the last year. It’s amazing to find what happened that day 2,3,4 years ago. Sometimes nothing interesred happened but there were days that were milestones in my life.

@@ivo3002 sounds awesome! Thanks for sharing!!

I almost never leave my house, so I have no need for a pocket notebook that fits in my bag, but I feel like watching other people's journal videos can be very helpful when I am in a journal slump. I love your dark red beat up notebook. It looks so cool. :D

[@journaljoy]

@@paperwormscat9760 thank you!!! 😊

[@SilverSeaOT7]

I’m still journaling. So nice to see you back and inspired!

I find that I use a small pocket (A6) notebook a lot, but I do "upgrade" the experience by putting it in a Galen Leather Slim A6 Cover. I also keep a Midori Three-Year journal, which I write in every night. It is pretty effortless, and it keeps me journaling even on days where I have otherwise written very little.

[@journaljoy]

I love Galen Leather! Thanks for sharing!!
