I use a lot of notebooks and journals for different things. Like I have a bullet journal, normal journal, a planner and a lot of notebooks. I have been writing in my journals since grade 2. And I have completed like 11 journals.
Currently I am using a black bound small notebook for my to do lists. I have also been writing the tips given down in the notebook.
I use whichever notebook I have laying around, I’ve bought a few, simply because they’re pretty, so now I’m using them. Journals that you love are better than ones you don’t. I feel more compelled to use the pretty ones.
You use whatever suits you. You can start a journal in order to write your to-do lists - daily or weekly or even monthly. If you want to you can write your list on a random piece of paper you have at hand. As I said, it’s your choice.
I used to keep a bullet journal, but since that has gotten hard to stay consistent with, I decided to switch to a plain old todo list with Fabulous and an app called Todoist. Both of these apps have motivated me to complete my tasks and make my life more productive much more than a paper notebook has.
I use a journal format that has a free template from mel robbins 5second journal.com Fantastic covers all the elements you need. Can’t recommend enough
I am now using a journal I bought for myself 20 years ago when working at Wondrous Things. I’ve always put it aside because it was too precious for whatever I needed a notebook for.
I like aesthetic colours, so currently my paper journals consist of one white and gold marble coil notebook with 5 different sections, and a light turquoise notepad that reads ‘do more of what makes you happy’ inspirational quotes like this encourage me to write how I feel in the moment and also any other aspects that I would be scared to let out onto paper.
Since I am dont live home temporarily, I’m just using my son’s A5 notebook I bought for him to scribble and write something. I’m also using a pencil. This is a temporary solution until o find a nicer one. Most important for me was to start, even without a nice notebook
For my todo list I use my agenda book . I have a large one, the size of a regular notebook because I like to put reminder papers in the folders. For instance some mail and imprint documents that I need to sit down and really read it. For my goal to do list I use loose leaf paper and put them in a folder. So far that’s working but I might just get a hard composition notebook and give it a try!
