I’ve recently gone back to bullet journaling, because I’m tired of subscription plans trying to force me to rent access to my own information and calendars. So I’ve started bullet journaling again, and I am enjoying it a lot more!

[@minivdesigns]

How do you use it?

[@rickmang5902]

I've used a 3"x5" top bound spiral notepad in a leather notebook/memo book cover that I purchased in the 1980's when I was a police officer. I've carried this type of notebook ever since. I take it everywhere I go. It fits in my back pocket. It costs extra, but I started using Rite-in-the-Rain (#135) products and have been very pleased. Pencil is my first choice. I'm 67 and enjoying your videos.

Hot Fuzz 😊 ✏️ 🗒️

[@kevinjobe2078]

A 2 notebook bullet journal type system has been a game changer. My pocket setup is my daily log and task list and my main journal is my monthly master list, goal tracker and collections of ideas/books to read/ etc.

[@oreo4881]

Yes that what I actually do right now . Use 2 notebooks and change your life forever

[@4nyamusic]

im confused about this, where i should write my thoughts and ideas, in journal or pocket journal, idk

[@oreo4881]

@@4nyamusic use a journal for taken thoughts from outside like KZbin and articles and also self generated thoughts and use another journal for experiences and goals and use a third journal(preferably pocket one) for to do lists, mood check, notes or any thing at the go. Then migrate it to its corresponding journa

[@tolulope.j]

i love how you segment your videos. it makes what you're saying easy to understand

[@vetha_litlov]

Two sides to every page which is super useful 😂 your sense of humour though 🎉

[@ToKiniAndy]

Love it. Wish I could get these in Japan. That pen slipping right in the top spirals is too satisfying.

I am also using pocket journal since the beginning of this year and I got inspired by my dad who often use it to write his expenditure and important stuff throughout the day.

Right there with you. I’ve been turning away from my phone more this past year. There def is a satisfaction and ease with the analog method. It’s keep my face out of the screen more.

I like that he doesn’t care about aesthetic so much, these are practical and you don’t need to spend too much time on drawing and as a person without artistic talent, I dig it.

[@Ariannaveira]

Oh my God, Hot Fuzz is also my fave movie. And you are so right, the way he explained the importance of his notebook really got me into journaling..!

[@sakshi-ok8zu]

used your template for the monthly planner for january and really loved it! it was so simplistic and to the point. thank you so much

[@rihabbensoula1016]

Where can I find it pls thank you

[@PanaMaJwaaRd]

this seems way more practical and realistic... i dont know why every bullet journal video has to be "who can write down pointless things more than me". I need something to just capture these to dos, reminders, thoughs, etc and keep it moving.

[@paulwalther5237]

The closest thing I've had was a vocabulary notebook where I just wrote down new words every day and dated it like you did. But I got distracted and stopped. I'm curious enough to try this.

Hey Reysu, I see that you have great videomaking skills! Just a tip to consider is making sure to give to viewer something to look forward to in the video. In this video for example you could say that you will tell the viewer about a certain time when this came in extremly useful or something similar.

that's a great tip thanks for your feedback

Dude I gotta thank you, about I week ago Hot Fuzz popped into my head and I couldn’t remember the name of the movie or much else apart from the ending. So thanks for bringing that up so I could remember it

ahaha that's amazing

[@excelent1ssima]

I like it very much that you showed a sort of a system for using pocket notes. That helps with not feeling overwhelmed by its potential messiness.

fellow creator here. been trying to adapt to something similar, especially because i'm juggling work, content, and uni all at the same time, and the blowup of pings and so forth has been so exhausting. loved your thoughts on this.

[@HopefulMathGirl]

Friend, you concern me with your work schedule. Can you try to reduce some? Just so you don't burn out, speaking from experience. I don't want people to burnout, I think there's more to life than work. Of course your philosophy might be different. I think that much work isn't necessary, just a certain amount of work is enough for people to live a happy life. May you find ways to be more peaceful I guess, sending you much love.

[@v.pavithra8887]

It's really nice and i will implement today itself and thanks for the video 😊

Bro this is the most useful yt video that i have seen since last year

[@tuomi1154]

I use a similar system but I use an top bound A6 discbound notebook. The pages are repositionable, disposable and refillable. I can punch different types of pages, even printables, pockets and tabs. I use small discs so it takes the same space as a traditional top bound notebook.

[@tuomi1154]

I found it hard to worl with traditional notebooks because I would have disposable notes mixed in with important ones I wanted to archive, and in the end would run out of space and have to choose between transferring the information from my old notebook or just giving up with it.

[@Bedeoz]

@@tuomi1154 Same here, I always use some kind of notebook, but I struggle to organize them, when inevitably ends up being a mix of doodles and disposable todos, with important info I need to keep and remember or reference later. Can I ask you, which discbound notebook you use?

[@tuomi1154]

@@Bedeoz I just bought some cheap rings from Amazon and a craftelier punch. I made the covers, dividers and pockets myself. Then I punched some grid paper for it. Since I live in Europe and A4 paper is commonly used on printers it is easy to print A6 sized planner inserts etc.

I use Notion every day as a second brain, but I am looking into spending less time looking at a screen. Love the idea of using a little jotter for all the ideas that come into my head - I could then transfer the best ones onto Notion to keep it clean and organised. Thanks for the video!

[@reysu]

That's a great idea!

[@drewmorrison]

Good way to do it. I think digital notes should be reserved for truly important information. However, digital makes a temptation to record everything

Does anyone know which is the Japanese tiny leather notebook mentioned ?

[@filmsfluent5848]

Hey there! Great video. What pen were you using in the very beginning of the video? I've noticed you using it in a bunch of different videos as well.

How do you set reminders of important events in the analogic way ? With the pocket journal or with a regular journal?

then I use my digital calendar lol
