I never thought of this, before. When you said you reached for it, instead of your phone, the light bulb in my head went off...or came on? I reach for my phone, far too often. I've got a beautiful tiny ring binder that I've been wanting to use, but didn't feel like it was large enough for planning or deep journaling. It could be perfect for this! Again, thank you for sharing.

So I would be curious to see when & how you transfer the info from your pocket notebook to the next proper place. But I will definitely be utilizing this method! Also, regarding screenshots ( I too am a screenshot hoarder), do you go back into your phone and move any information from past screenshots into your pocket notebook? Or when you *are* using your phone and see something you would normally screenshot, how do you transfer that info into your pocket notebook? Or do you? Sorry for all the questions!

It's a very convenient and easy way to note down anything without having to rely on your phone, and at the end of it you have a snapshot of a certain period of your life, which I love. I do tend to use it a lot for memory keeping as well, and I struggle with migrating things on time to other notebooks, but it's all a learning process. 😅

I completely understand and relate! Having bits and pieces of information spread across several areas can be very overwhelming - where too look first for important information?! I am planning on doing a full video where I show how to allocate different bits of information to other places, but in the meantime, I will explain it briefly here as well 😇 My current planner system consists of my pocket notebook, a Hobonichi Weeks planner, and a commonplace notebook (I also have a pocket bujo, but it isn't relevant here lol). I will sift through my pocket notebook at the end of each day and decide what to do with each piece of info. If it's a completed to-do, I scrap it; if it's a piece of information that I want to keep (like a lifehack, or a quote), it goes to my commonplace notebook; and if it's a task or to-do that isn't date-specific, I will throw it into my Hobonichi Weeks! I also have a sheet of paper that I call my "too heavy to hold" section, but there will be more on that later 😜

Thank you so much for this. I keep a bullet journal, wanted to begin a commonplace-notebook. I was wondering how to merge them, what to use in the bullet journal etc. You provided mw with a solution: Journaling in the small notebook and then migrating the things that are worth migrating into my bullet journal or my commonplace notebook. That also saves my bullet-journal from becoming cluttered. I also liked your analogy about the landing place and the beehive, thats exactly how I see it. What is so therapeutic about journaling on paper is the absence of noise. When I open my notebook to start writing the noisy everyday environment fades into the background and I'm starting to relax. I read Bertram Russels 'Conquest of happiness' recently and he describes sound and noise as a stressor.

I have one dedicated Field Notes book for capturing. It's my analog brain. If it's in my head, I write it down. Nothing is off limits as far as what goes in it. It's the first and most important layer of my system. If your thinking is in one place, it can easily be allocated elsewhere or handled there and then. Having a holistic view of your thoughts is life changing. It can help you see if your expending yourself to much, if some months really are buisier than others, and keep mid and long term items just as relevant as the short term. My pocket notebooks are indispensible.

The n 1 thing I always think about when considering starting this is: what will I do with this notebook when I’m finished? What do you guys do with it - throw them away, keep collecting them….?

Hi, what are those translucent page markers?

Do you use a separate page for each day for each thought or you just start listing them?
@lillabjornstationery
@lillabjornstationery 2 ай бұрын
I'll usually just start with the date at the top of the page and then write as much as I'd like -- I don't want to limit myself to one page per day. For this experiment, I wrote every single day, but I can see how some people might benefit from only dating this notebook when an idea comes to them (ie. not feeling pressured to use it every day) ☺

So neat! I would love to use a pocket notebook, but they've always felt too small for my handwriting and everything I tend to write down.... But maybe I should try again!

If you feel restricted by the size, you could get an unruled pocket notebook instead (ie. completely blank), it might help? 😇

The truth is we don't need to write everything down. We don't need to constantly be taking notes or making lists. We don't need to be constantly entertained or stimulated. Truly I say this with all the love in my heart because I've watched a few of these notebook videos and I see the same inherent mistake that people make with their smartphones. That is the constant need for stimulation and the constant need for interaction with something other than our own minds. Certainly there are some things we should write down but they are not nearly as prevalent as what is generally depicted in these notebook videos. It makes no sense to write down lists of things you'll never do. The truth is if you don't do it right now it probably won't get done.

The "if you don't do it right now, it will never be done" is the exact mindset I have right now and IS HARMFUL!!! Why? Because I get bogged down with only the momentary thoughts and actions and never something of true meaning and long term achivement. Yes, we don't need to write everything down, but I would rather write it down than forget about it entirely! Especially if that something is a thought towards my own betterment in the long run!
