I'm gonna write my journaling experience in the hopes it helps someone who is in a similar situation to what I was when I started 3 years ago. When I started journaling I was super depressed and didn't even know it until started affecting work. I got medical help for that and during that time started journaling. There was so much going on that I had to write in stream of consciousness, there was just too much and it needed to be out of my head. Once I'd done a few entries of pure rambling about everything in my head I could ask myself how to fix it and having those ideas thought of and then expanded upon on paper actually makes fixing the problem easier, for me at least. Once you start seeing improvements to your mental state is when I would start something like what's in the video. I personally don't use the life tracker system, it's not for me, but I have recommended it to a friend. Find the root cause of the problem and find out how to fix it and then focusing on what you truly want becomes easier. I journal 3-4 times a week though sometimes less. If I wait any longer than a week then it starts building back up in my head again and ruins my mental health. I think what's mentioned in this video is great but for people with serious mental health just getting it all out in a brain dump is easier to start with in my experience.

I'm so glad I found your journalling videos. I struggle with a lack of motivation and an overall feeling of not having control over the many facets of my life. I watched two of your journalling videos and have started journalling more effectively. Hope you put out more videos like these

[@RossOrlando]

Just found your channel and have been marathoning your videos. Awesome content, man. Just ordered a journal and purchased the stuff on your website. Excited to get started!

[@leonheiherbat1186]

pretty much every video is soooo helpful thanks Mate!

[@IAGM99]

Could not have come at a better time. Excellent work, and keep it up

[@romanticbaldy]

I like writing down a topic first. It's an awesome tip! It does make re-reading entries more interesting! Thanks for sharing.

[@reysu]

glad you found it useful :)

[@h4ck3rboyz52]

Reysuuui with another goated content

[@reysu]

thank you!!

[@sarahyip2825]

Watched a clip of yours (life tracker) end of June, attempted something somewhat similar knowing it's gonna be bit of trial n error. That process has got me my own prompt ie "How does Self Awareness/Metacognition figure in Journaling?" Well a lot and in fact builds more and more of both. Am still reading up on the two inexhaustible topics! Eye opening and so relatable. What started me on this prompt was my take from your few clips I've watched. And mental clarity happens to be one important tracker I want to maintain. Can only get better right 😉 Now to re watch this clip to digest it...

[@reysu]

interesting prompt!

[@IZSIN222]

He's back. 😎

[@Xee722]

Hi reyse, I really enjoy your content and appreciate the effort you put into your videos.I noticed that you haven't been posting as frequently lately. Is there any chance you could share more content or let us know if there are any updates on when you'll be posting next ,I understand that creating content can be time-consuming, and I just wanted to let you know that your videos are something I look forward to. Thank you for all that you do!

I have two stalemates for journaling.The first is that it is more tempting for me to use an e-ink device instead of traditional paper and pen.But it is restrictive that todays’ e-ink notebooks are a4 size. The second issue for me is the time transitions in daily paragraphs. As I review the day and tasks I left behind, I realized that most of the time i am writing the insight section in the future present tense. Whenever I use past tense, it doesn't really help to record my pessimistic point of view and criticism of myself, and even small problems that are recorded on my journal by me are getting rock-rigid🤔

[@reysu]

try out analog and journal see which one you like most! and I think future tense can make sense for the insight section and past tense for context

[@alex_bukovac]

Hey brother! Just sent you a DM, thank you so much for your journal format! Been using it and it works like clockwork! It's great, but I need to ask you about how you do one for a QUARTER or YEARLY plans? Any ideas? 🙏🏼 Keep up the amazing stuff - cheers!

[@IZSIN222]

Where have you been? I look forward to your videos and honestly thought multiple times since your last post that you had quit. Hope everything's going well

[@reysu]

just been busy lately but aiming to post 1-2 a month! let me know if there's anything you'd like to see :)

[@JoborPathok]

[@juanrdesantiago]

[@m2fa1d2]

[@reysu]

[@akshaybharadwaj2383]

which pen do you generally use for journaling?

[@raj_singh477-w8c]

the pen doesnt matter any pen will do the job , just make sure that its not too heavy and is smooth , i personally use the pentonic pen which you can get at any stationary store

[@johnnyb822]

How do you categorize your book? Month by month, or do you journal in one section and do the monthly tracking divided?

[@reysu]

i use one notebook per year starting on my birthday and its split up naturally by the monthly pages. It gives me roughly 15-20 pages a month to use for journalling

[@magdalenamarchewa9714]

I can't find the book you mentioned at the beginning, is there an English version?

[@reysu]

unfortunately there isn't yet, it called メモの魔力 in japanese and is a best seller over there

[@Uttarajadhav]

Which journal/ brand book you use

[@paco_seck]

Leuchtturm 1917

[@TheMikaCollins]

I thought memo was from memorandum, as opposed to memory. Maybe I'm being too pedantic

[@reysu]

I might have messed up there with the translation

[@jayheikt]

how can i get a black sticker like that? 0:01

[@prakritib10]

It’s a dymo label maker, comes with the tape, you just press the letters you want!

[@iCrazyMidget]

Where did you get that sticker with your name on? I want my name on one heheheh

[@_Minc_]

What can be the prompt?

[@reysu]

anything you want to journal about, for example you can reflect on the past month

[@Ddddddddddd381]

you're cracked for charging $5 for a txt file

[@Abhishek___9879]
