The Bullet Journal Pocket Notebook 📔 Worth It?

[@gmt5664]

I can't imagine it's useful for more than daily rapid logging. I think a challenge with the bullet journal is that you don't always have your journal with you, so this is a way to rapid log in those situations.

[@markyourpages]

Yeah - and this fits in the Bujo back pocket. So you could keep it a part until it needed to be separate.

[@chrisconlon]

I use the app for this situation

[@christimorgret7818]

It's useful for keeping some journalers in check [looks shifty]

[@marctestarossa]

I went from a5 to a6 horizontal a few days ago and right now it feels very nice. It actually feels very similar, because it‘s now one spread a6 for one page a5 and I‘m not really missing anything at the moment. but we will see how it turns out and how long it takes for me to fill the notebook up. it‘s a leuchtturm a6 harcover with 187 pages (I‘m from germany and many local stores have them in stock and i love the durability of them) and those little things are expensive as hell. I paid 16,99 € which is kinda insane.

[@TomaNicTurtle159]

I keep a small dot grid notebook in my back pocket every day for work, I don't have a desk job, I'm in a different place doing different things every day. It's my work bujo. I hate the look of standing there on my phone, and I need an indexed list of the dozens of projects and jobs I have to keep track of. This will be perfect!

[@markyourpages]

Sounds like a perfect fit!

[@creativegray]

I appreciate that you saved me $20 by doing the pen test -- even the 120 gsm of the edition 2 felt too thin (which is why I went to an Archer & Olive, and now Baron Confidant). I do love the column guides, though, and also the vertical layout -- reminds me of how I've used traveler's notebooks in the past. I wish the packaging wasn't so cool, because I still WANT one, just for the pleasure of unwrapping it.

[@markyourpages]

Haha. I’m a sucker for good packaging - but would hate to have anyone spend the money just for that.

[@SigogglinJack]

This is awesome!!! I’ve been hoping they would do a pocket sized notebook. I’m currently bullet journaling in a passport size Traveler’s Notebook.

[@markyourpages]

Nice.

[@jamestombleson469]

Great video! I really appreciate your thoughtful use of the pocket sized bullet journal. I already use a small notebook like this for my bujo combined with a wallet in a passport sized traveler's notebook & am able to get about 2 months per notebook insert if I write in mechanical pencil.

[@markyourpages]

Oh. Nice. I just got a travelers notebook to try out. Love the idea of the different notebooks in 1

[@anzuchiera]

It is convenient that it is light and you can carry it with you, make notes in it somewhere on the way, and then paste these sheets into the main diary.

[@markyourpages]

Great use

[@jadenlightnight7695]

I probably would've bought the notebook a while ago. But I bought a bunch of field notes. & now I've really come up w/ a system that I think works for me. But I think it's cool that they came out w/ a pocket bullet journal. :)

[@PlanYourOneLife]

It would be better if they could make it in a true pocket size like the Field Notes.

[@markyourpages]

Nice! Love that you found a system that works for you. It’s the best feeling.

[@jadenlightnight7695]

@@markyourpages I totally agree.

[@lisaleone2296]

Just get some A6 notebooks.

[@b.2194]

For me, personally, this would be too small, but I remember you talking about a woman who came up to you and told you about her army-husband who does bulletjournaling in a pocket notebook and that it has the right size and weight for his army gear! For these people it sounds perfect 🎉

[@markyourpages]

Yes, great for the quick notes in a small package.

[@PlanYourOneLife]

I love the smart grid. I think that it's a good option for a "pocket" size notebook. Good review!

[@markyourpages]

Thanks. I’m a fan of the grid too. Super nice idea

[@RileyEffective]

I would really like this as an external memory for on the go. grocery list, symptom list at the doctor, phone number or name you want to remember, movie or book you were recommended, etc. For me it would be perfect for exactly those sorts of things, especially as I don't like pulling out my phone in social situations, and this would help me with that.

[@markyourpages]

It seems perfect for that

[@allyson_gari]

I would use it as a field notebook, traveling or small purse notebook when doing errands outside. the thirds division set of dots found really useful for me. gel pen or ball point pen seems for it

[@markyourpages]

The smart grid is the best part imo

[@myriaml3714]

I love the pocket bullet Journal, that is more a A6 size. I use it as an everyday carry notebook to jot down todo’s, expenses and micro journaling

[@markyourpages]

Great use for the notebook

[@Chad-xh8zs]

I like and recommend 3x5 notecards with a tiny binder clip as an “away from the big journal” solution

[@markyourpages]

Oh very interesting

[@queenbunnyfoofoo6112]

Yes, I have a hobonichi for daily work scribbles, and 6x4 cards for zettlekasten notes.

[@MiaBlaha]

My bullet journal style is minimalistic - mostly pen (I’m using fountain pen with deAtramentis grey document ink which is fast drying), very occasionally small decoration or photo. I also like Leuchtturm’s 80gsm paper because it creates feel of lived in notebook that was used (160gsm feels like cardboard to me 😅). So far I like this notebook. Portability is great. I love that it folds out to A5 size. That was a brilliant idea. My daily logs are long so I expect one notebook to last only 4-6 weeks but we will see. I’m still experimenting around and it’s all new and shiny. I’m curious what my feelings will be once the “boredom and routine” sets in.

[@markyourpages]

I love experimenting in notebooks too - and love your approach to your style. Grey ink …. Thin pages… I see your style.

[@sistergoldenhair0727]

[@rotherfamily]

​@@sistergoldenhair0727it folds open to the size of an A5 page

[@kruthikarshankar]

I got mine to take it along when I’m outside. I’m used to writing in my pocket journal but I’m using it as my main planner for May. Let’s see how it works out.

[@markyourpages]

Smart! It makes sense

[@jessicarose966]

Ok you shared if you lay the book down then it makes a full sheet. Well the numbers are weird on the page maybe because it's a 2 page per day.. like the top section morning bottom section evening.. or even top part notes bottom for time blocking ect.

[@markyourpages]

I realized later that each tall page is 1, even thought it feels like seperate "days" or pages to me.

[@lady_v_101]

This would be great for a shopping list, to-do list, hand bag notebook for jotting down ideas etc etc.. All of which can be done on a much cheaper generic notebook though..

[@markyourpages]

Price seems to be the biggest concern with this option.

[@SteveHorne]

I’d like to see a video about what you called a “down and dirty” notebook vs the full bujo. Do you copy todos into it and make it a smaller bujo or is it just a scribbled list of things that might eventually make it to the official bullet journal? Not necessarily this notebook but anything. Like, I usually carry a field notes in my pocket for scribbling random things.

[@markyourpages]

I have one video called “15 min Bullet Journal Set up) and that is pretty down and dirty. Just the basics using a single pen and notebook. No extra frills.

[@peaceridge]

Where did you find the quick calendar stamp? I can't find one that small on amazon.

[@markyourpages]

It’s from Midori. Got it from a stationery shop online. Its been a while since but sometimes you can catch them on Amazon

[@tamouse]

jetpens should have them if you don't mind the wait.

[@JamesMcBrien]

thanks for that review. I'm fairly new to BuJo and I'm learning by doing. I am already on my 6th BuJo since 15.1.24 but I'm addicted! I can see how pocket Bujo would be great for a hike/holiday or boat trip in that its very light and portable...

[@markyourpages]

Wow congrats on your bujo success!

[@ShaunaStory]

I could see this being a great low commitment starter set for someone interested in trying out the Bullet Journal method, or even a good option for someone who values portability and convenience much more than paper/pen quality.

[@markyourpages]

Yes!!!! With all the directions built in and the resources online, i agree. Great ideas!

[@pattern-shift]

I’m thinking of using it as I am traveling, the intention is to plan and log my trip. Another Idea I have is to use it for a monthly project alongside my a5 BuJo. It has the perfect amount of pages.

[@markyourpages]

That's a great idea!

[@Eliza524]

Where is your calendar stamp from? Personally, I'd use this on the go in my purse and then tear out the page and add in my main journal.

[@markyourpages]

It’s a Midori stamp. A lot of stationery shops online sell them. Sometimes Amazon

[@ArmadusMalaysia]

I'm still struggling on the idea of juggling between different sized journals. I can only write everything on one journal, once finished, write on a new one. The only way I see myself writing in more than one journal is with pocket sizeo journals, but that's strictly for emergencies, and throwing in info that is precisely short, and transferring it to the main journal. Or like when I need to go to the ATM and not rely on my phone to search for info, I would write those kind of details. Phone numbers, emails, bank accounts, contact info. Never could I write future plans.

[@markyourpages]

Yeah, i think that it needs to fit what you need vs someone trying to fit when they need in it, if that makes sense.

[@Nimmitshop]

I maybe would use it for my job, to have in the pocket of my lab coat for fast access, instead of the cheap ruled notepads with spirals they provide us with. I’m a leftie too, so every time I turn a page it’s a battle to find out how to write basically. As of now I’ve ordered an a&o a6 notebook. I also figured that since I’m going to have to draw in the book sometimes it will be better with the 160 gsm paper. So maybe after my a&o book is finished? I kind of like that you need to use it vertically.

[@markyourpages]

The idea of the vertical use is cool. great idea from them - but like you mentioned, tool for the purpose. This is great for notes, but nothing too much - especialyl sketching or drawing

[@notoriousMAG]

Already use pocket notebooks vertically for lower cost and more pages 🤷‍♀️

[@markyourpages]

Ahead of the curve over there. 😆 thanks for checking out the video

[@christopherlarson7579]

Same! I started doing this back in 2019 with the field notes and Rhodia A6 journals. It really does allow for more space. And people would see me doing it and say it looked ugly, but my journal my rules!

[@low8739]

It’s cute. I can see how it could be a shopping/errand of the day list. Personally, I never use perforated paper. I don’t really have a reason to tear a page out. I don’t want them ripping out from daily wear and tear. Honestly, if I’m only using it to log as needed, I have a lot of notepads that I would use. The ghosting is a big no for me. I probably wouldn’t buy it for myself. I can see it being useful if someone is new to Bujo. It would be less intimidating, I think.

[@markyourpages]

I don’t think I’d test paper either. Give me a sticky note instead

[@ChrisManjarrez]

I just buy pocket water color books from Michael's for the heavy paper and cost. You can flip the orientation like this if you'd like and all for about $6

[@markyourpages]

Oh nice!

[@joycemaurer3588]

It would be easier than carrying around my big Bujo! So use with it. I can see that. And then review at end of day to see what needs to be transferred to the big guy.

[@markyourpages]

Great use.

[@echojardini]

I think this would be a good solution for semester-long planning, as it seems to have the right amount of pages for 16 weeks. which could be useful as I find the discrepancy between short/medium/long term collections in the same journal to be a little disorienting. but then would I also feel the need to carry around my longer term collections journal? I might use 2 pocket notebooks instead of 1 a5, but if I'm doing that I might as well use a travellers notebook with different inserts so that I only have to carry 1 thing

[@markyourpages]

Oh interesting.

[@DJFuzzl]

I wonder if you would use it as a companion? If so what would you use it for? As a brain dump or rapid logging? How would you combine it with your regular Bujo?

[@markyourpages]

I think you definitely could and it would make sense.

[@jaylynn7493]

I gave up on the hardback version-too heavy to carry everywhere. After several tries with different sizes, I found the Paperback (B6+) size in softbound (Leuchtturm) was the right combination of page size and weight for me. I usually use two per year. So, no need for smaller, lighter BuJo - I’ve already got it!

[@markyourpages]

that’s awesome that you have found your right size. Love that

[@katharinawichmann8284]

I think they are cute and nice to use eg. for sketching or quick notes but a dealbreaker for me is the price. I spend a lot on stationery but I'm not willing to spend nearly 20 $ on three soft cover journals.

[@markyourpages]

💰 ☑️

[@carabudgets]

I need that calendar stamp! Can you share where I can pick one up? That ghosting would be a no for me as well.

[@markyourpages]

It’s from Midori - and I got it from a Japanese stationery shop, Cute things from a Japan. You can sometimes find it on Amazon too.

[@applejuice-4706]

I didn’t end up wanting the pocket Bujo.. I purchased field notes, moliskine, several other ones all two finally purchased the bullet journal pocket and was extremely impressed with the quality compared to all the other ones. It was 100% noticeable to the point where I wish I wouldn’t have purchased the other ones. The cover felt like leather and had a weight that made it feel premium.

[@markyourpages]

@@applejuice-4706 oh wow! That’s an incredible recommendation

Bad paper = bad notebook. I hate ghosting. This review was very helpful

[@markyourpages]

[@junebugtea6654]

I don't like bleed through, but I LOVE ghosting! I use a paper (Tomoe River) that's great for fountain pens, but I choose the lighter weight to maximize ghosting.

[@betydning]

Fair enough to hate ghosting, but it's NOT a sign of bad paper. Lots of high quality paper ghosts, that's just a function of thickness. Thickness isn't synonymous with quality either.

[@markyourpages]

Good point.

[@hannahclark8313]

​@@betydning Exactly! Quality paper and thickness are NOT the same thing! 😅

Could do the same with a Field Notes minus the stickers. Thanks for this. It never occurred to me to orient my Field Notes 90 degrees. Much better for writing.

[@PaperPensandCoffee]

[@donnadwyer3536]

Thanks so much for the video! I hate ghosting, so I think that, along with page numbers only on one side would make it a no for me. As others have said, it might be good as a notebook to "jot" in and transfer to regular notebook later, but it is a bit expensive to be used that way. Think I'll be staying with my A5 for now.

[@KJM_Writes]

Hey Mark. Thanks for this. Really interesting and I can’t imagine this is a product I would use. I am firmly entrenched in printed planners now. But I wanted to drop a comment because I thought it was interesting that you didn’t actually use any of the pages as an A5 spread, it was all kind of like just using an A6 side ways. Not a criticism at all, I just noticed and thought that was interesting. I bet most people would struggle with the idea of having one A5 page the way it’s intended.

[@markyourpages]

For some reason it didn’t click in my head that it was a full page. Even though it’s the same size, the fold in the middle just registers as a break to be. So it really just feels like 2 pages.

[@helloashilli]

I already use a "pocket"-a6 softcover Leuchtturm (123 pgs) so this would be like half the pages, I don't see myself switching for the pretty branding or dot configurations - I don't have much issue drawing out a quick and dirty layout with the existing dots that are there and i'm not too fussed about exact proportions these days (I don't have time and my expense records hardly care if they have equi-distant columns lol)

[@markyourpages]

Oh I didn’t know they had those. Wonder why they didn’t give more pages in these

[@helloashilli]

@@markyourpages these are a bit wider than the softcover “pocket” which is not a true a6 - maybe they’re trying to go for a … 1/3 ground lol 😂

[@helloashilli]

@@markyourpages also possible, after reflection, these seem like they're numbered and sold in packs for a quarter. By that I mean, you buy a pack and it will last you roughly 3 months of daily scratch pages and a few other assorted notes, one month per book. 🤔 I still don't think I'm terribly fond of breaking things up like that.

[@stationerystream]

I really dislike the vertical format with the fold up rather than to the side, as a right-handed person. I've tried it before after seeing some very pretty spreads on Instagram and quickly realised as I was writing that I hated it. I prefer teeny tiny writing in an A6 notebook instead of standard writing in a folded "A5" notebook for rapid logging. I'm curious to see who would go for them.

[@markyourpages]

There is someting specail about tiny writing in a little notebook. No doubt.

[@teejhant]

Couldn't agree more about ghosting ... it's a pet peeve to me. No matter how light it is, my eyes have a hard time looking past it and pages seem all jumbled. I will likely just stick with Field Notes, but maybe start using them vertically. I like that aspect of this notebook.

[@markyourpages]

[@kenneyjs]

I like the idea of a6 used as a5 but with the ghosting and form factor that price point is a bit high. Field Notes has some 100# + notebooks sometimes and knockoffs can probably need the 80gsm for half the price.

[@markyourpages]

Easy choice for the other options

[@user-fc3ul2ye2m]

I am going to try it out once just for the grids. Imagine not having to count the dots when setting up a page. If I will continue using it depends on how much I like it.

[@markyourpages]

The smart grid is def my #1 favorite feature

[@Belgarathe]

I think we are thinking this as a replacement instead of as supplement. So if you want mindfulness of bujo but can’t take your regular notebook then this can still keep track of your thoughts/notes. So your main bujo holds a tally of all things that you need to review. Then you can transfer what you need for the day into this travel bujo. Issue here is that I’m not sure who would use this over their phone as capture device.

[@LaithGraham]

A couple of days before these dropped I added a similar size notebook to my Bullet Journal process because I needed something to keep in a pocket while interacting with clients at both jobs. Unfortunately I picked something a little thick. These would be ideal but would probably only last about three weeks for me. So I’ll probably give them a go soon, but for daily use I’ll stick with something cheap and nasty and then transfer clean to my BJ2 at night.

[@LaithGraham]

I had a thought overnight. I could move collections that take up a month to a page in my Bullet Journal over to these. Like a vehicle log and a supplements record. Then I’d get almost four years of use out of each one. And they could live where I need them.

[@markyourpages]

I think that if I was using this all the time, i would get about the same time from them. I have been keeping quick notes - but nothing too extensive.

[@Siferiax]

I'm still waiting for my order of a B6 traveler's with a bunch of inserts. I notice I like things to be slim. I currently use a very cheap lined notebook for dailies. It's slightly smaller than B6 and thin. I also have a chunky A5 and injustice kept falling off with that one. I was really curious about this notebook though, but I think the price and ghosting are just a no for me.

[@markyourpages]

Price seems to be the biggest turn off for these.

[@limited40]

I picked a set up because I wanted to try them and liked the size. I hate to say that I hate the paper. I am getting ghosting with pencil. Also this is way too expensive for what it is. I'm just taking notes for training for my new job. While I'm reviewing for my test, the quality of the paper is just distracting. I still think the remaining notebooks would be good for traveling and adhering pictures or ticket stubs or maps (ephemera) to half of the page, that would prevent ghosting or bleed through and the travel notes would be on the other half of the page.

[@nrjm26]

This is obviously meant for taking quick and messy notes throughout hectic days when carrying your usual notebook is too bulky. I'd only use it with pencil though to avoid ghosting. The smart grid is pretty cool. But overall I find it too expensive for what I can think of using it for.

[@lisaleone2296]

I started using an A6 notebook for my rapid-logging and tasks a couple months ago, paired with a passport sized horizontal weekly planner with no months for all of the concrete and date-dependent things. It has been glorious. But in this case... 1) I don't see how using the book sideways is better than using it the normal way. 2) If I have to bust out a clip to keep it open.... I'm just not gonna do it. 3) If I'm only meant to use one side of the page, it's a tablet, not a notebook. Boo! Therefore, for me this is a product solving a problem I don't have and not adding anything to the game.

[@markyourpages]

Chatting with others - there is only 1 page number cause it’s supposed to represent a single A5 page. So that vertical orientation is even more in place

[@anotherway917]

I have switched to this entirely as it would be too heavy for me to bring the original sized bullet journal and I have used up the original one within a year because I journal (rant) a bit too much. Having a thinner and smaller notebook and making it just for work feels like a month of shitty time during work will pass sooner😂

[@markyourpages]

Hahah, Hopfully the time does pass faster with just things to do and nothing extra on the pages.

[@sistergoldenhair0727]

I ordered this and don’t find it useful for any organizational purpose. The paper makes it useless for most of the pens I use. I really love how small and cute it is, I just can’t use it to organize my life so it is now a vocabulary book and wordle log. I track my daily wordle tries and put in any new words I come across. I also like adding new scrabble words. I found a use but not the one that was intended.

I think you didn't get the point about using it in portrait mode, there's only page number on the bottom of the each two page spread because you supposed to use it as a A5 page, this is not mean to you should use only one side.

The numbers are only on one page because a double page is one page of a Normal Bullet Journal.

[@markyourpages]

I figured that out later. Duh Mark. 😂

I admit this notebook hits my 'aw tiny cute' buttons, but that doesn't make it useful. I have an A5 bujo and a packet of Field Notes someone gifted me. If i work out a more efficient 'keep and carry' scheme between those, then the bujo pocket will be the next purchase.

[@markyourpages]

It def hits the cute button 😂 I love that.

[@christimorgret7818]

@markyourpages I like to think guys have one, too, and just don't talk about it, but realistically, then we'd never know 😉

[@markyourpages]

@@christimorgret7818 haha. We def have one. But we do hide it sometimes.

The ghosting is a deal breaker.

[@markyourpages]

Yeah. It made me sad for a daily use

[@soothingglass]

cool

[@markyourpages]

Thanks for watching

I think they're rather expensive and to be honest amazon have some cheap notebooks with similar size and dots and they've got nicer paper. I'm turning into such a paper snob, if it isn't at least 120gsm I dont' want it.

I get that. Same I have a hard time with ones look cute on the outside. Then line paper that ghost

[@iskrajackal9049]

The immense care gone into making this high quality product is ruined by the bleed imo maling it a deal breaker for me. If you're going to pay top dollar for a notebook you wamt top performance. The vertical opening is the final coffin nail. Having to use bulldog clips to keep it open is just icky. Verdict: wrong, wrong, wrong

[@markyourpages]

I agree - all the quality there with less than stellar paper.

[@MR_THINQ]

Paper is too thin with showthrough… HARD PASS.

[@Somebodyelse141]

Definitely not for me. I like pocket notebooks, but not for bullet journaling and not for that price

[@markyourpages]

Yeah, a litlte higher than the average cost.

[@Somebodyelse141]

@@markyourpages to be fair, I always go off brand with my pocket notebooks. I go through them too quickly to justify spending very much

[@markyourpages]

Don’t blame you. I have from off brand field notes notes books because I was like - why do much for less paper? It all works the same. I feel you

$20...seriously? You Americans spend $6 + on a small notebook?

[@markyourpages]

From the sound of it, most people would not.
