i don’t think an expensive journal or planner is worthy to purchase. i think just a normal, cheap journal or planner does the job. buying the empty, prompt-less one is even better because you can customise it and “make it your own@

Yes, it is. As it has adequate personalized features like design, space and nice graphics to motivate me to open it up and write the entries daily.

Tes, of Course. First of all it is much nicer write in something what we like. Secondly sometimes we can make a small gift for ourselves. You can buy a new journal after one week streak of writing, it can be also motivation to start.

I depends I like one that prompts what type of stuff and where to write it. It helps organize my thoughts and keep that space for the correct purpose.

When you write in a nicer planner it does help with the feeling that your writing something important. The downside of its expensive you can get a little anxious about choosing to write in it. I personally choose a nicer looking planner on the cheap side because it reduces anxiety

No honestly, most of the planer are cheap and still do the job and journals, i mean it doesn‘t matter how it looks like but how you fill it, like with words, emotions etc. that’s the importance… If you can‘t stop thinking about this one planer bc you‘ll love to have it then buy it but expensive doesn‘t mean better

An expensive planner can attract you to it and make you more likely to use it. If you’re the type to impulse buy planners and never use them, definitely not. If it’s something you’re going to use daily or close to daily then of course! I’d suggest using a cheaper one until the habit is built, then upgrading, maybe once you hit a big milestone in your habit building.

No I don’t, any online planner can work just as well, what’s important is that you have an outlet to write and express and organize yourself

I tend to feel guilty after purchasing an expensive planner. What you can do is print free templates online and then bind the pages yourself. This makes your journal more personal to your needs and because you’ve made it, and you’re writing in it frequently, it’ll make you happier and in tune with your work.
