You describe your professional life as "full time film director." How great is that? What a journey you've captured on this channel. From trying to get the movie finished and out there. And then trying to get out of your day job. And you keep succeeding and documenting it for us on this channel. Really great stuff. Inspiring and illuminating. And it continues! When you turned the journal to write from a different angle that really got my attention. When you direct film full time you, I imagine, are constantly looking at ordinary situations and figuring out how to look at them in a fresh way. That seems to be spilling over into all your activities. And a good lesson for all of us. The answer, the refreshment, the new idea, whatever it is may be right in front of us. Turn the book sides ways. Consider from a different angle or perspective. Maybe things are right there. Change our POV. You spoke about bad mood days and good mood days but you should know your films always put me in a great mood! Freeing creativity,. So consistently. You're definitely onto something special here.

Thank you! Mike! What you said about constantly looking at ordinary situations in a fresh ways is so resonate with me. The type of content I direct has been growing so fast that things used to attract audience last year is already out dated, and we constantly have to think about better visual and design to make things stand out. Sometimes, I experiences mental block when I try to come up with new ideas, and now reading what you said made me realizing the resistance is coming from creativity muscular stretch. It's all about exercising creativity. Thank you!!! 🙏🏼

[@madelinegreen9019]

Your videos always come at the perfect time, Nani! Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement! :)

[@NaniLiYang]

I'm so glad! I hope you enjoy this years journaling! 💛

[@user-te7zz8mv3x]

i use post it notes as tabs for habit trackers or frequently referred to pages

[@NaniLiYang]

That’s a good idea. I’m going to try tab these pages too. Thank you!

[@user-te7zz8mv3x]

my first bullet journal was so so messy as my layout didn’t quite work despite spending so much time setting up a spread! so my solution: - setup a weekly spread so i can change my mind every week - gradually added/removed columns or sections each week - use washi tape to hide places where i changed my mind

[@NaniLiYang]

It's clear you went through the process of "try and error" in order to make your journal work for YOU. That's the purpose of journaling! Loving the idea of using washi tape to cover up things. Thank you for sharing.

[@leeliberation]

Really enjoyed this; thank you for sharing...sometimes I need a little reminder that my journal is for me and there are no rules to what I can put in it. I also use a Hobonichi Cousin; I found you through your 2025 set up video just over a week ago. Tuning in from Toronto, Canada

[@NaniLiYang]

Thank you for your sweet common and support my video! I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed it. Happy journaling ☺️

[@hannalu1242]

Your journal is so beautiful! How do you usually print those pictures? Do you just print on normal A4 paper and cut them, or do you use a photo printer? I wanted to try but also worrying the pictures get faded over time.

[@NaniLiYang]

Great question!! Let me make a detailed video about this. I’ll make it very soon. But to answer you short. I do both! I print with my Epson ET4800, and also print with my picture printer from cannon. I’ll post the video in a couple of weeks. Thank you for liking my journal!

[@hannalu1242]

@ Thanks for the reply 🥰 Looking forward to your new video!!
