i love this! one thing i would add is to not give up - if you miss a day it isn’t the end of the world. and if journaling every day doesn’t work for you, maybe it’s just not for you. maybe you only need to journal once a month or something like that. but if you’re committed to starting a daily practice, don’t let forgetting a day make you give up completely!!
I think this is a really great point, and I thought the same thing. I totally understand the benefit and the intention of saying "I will write every single day," but for people such as myself that have diagnosed OCD or are just perfectionists, this can set us up for failure. Ex: "Ugh, I missed two days in a row, so I failed. I give up." Like I said though, I think it's wonderful to set goals and intentions and totally understand Elena's thought process on that.
What helped me was that I looked for different questions on pinterest and answered one or two every day. After a few weeks, it became a part of my everyday routine and helped me to stay consistent and come up with my own ideas. Hope this helps❣
I am a Japanese university student who first met you in this video. I felt like you were leaving a neat footprint on each day by keeping a daily journal. Very nice way to live ✨✨Now I plan to start writing in my journal with my favorite stickers as my companion! Thank you for the wonderful video 💕
This video helped me so much getting into journaling. You should totally film a journal with me or a scrapbook or a mood board with me video and take us along the whole process
Thank you for the reminder that journals can be both messy and beautiful! I mentioned that in my own journaling evolution video a while ago but today I was feeling some anxiety and overwhelm and just needed the reminder from someone else, so thank you for being that person to help me calm down out of my anxiety. Appreciate you!
OMG this is literally my fav journaling video I like it so much this is the third time I watch it and I still check ur channel every time hoping for a new journal video cuz I’m obsessed with ur journal style 😭😭🎀
The thing is there are many types of journalling. I journal every day and am on year 2 of my 5 year diary, but it is just a simple account of what I do day to day, there isn’t room for much more. So what you are talking about is a manifestation journal, so not an account of what you have done, but instead a projection of what you want to do. But you can have a health journal, an emotional journal, a travel journal, an art journal, a sticker journal, a scrap journal or countless other types of journal. I personally find these other types of journalling hard to maintain with any sort of regularity and, being of an older generation, I guess that has to do with the importance I place on doing these things. But I like the idea of a manifestation journal, I have manifested many, many things into my life so it would be nice to have a sort of record of what I wanted vs. what I actually got.
Such an excellent video. Journalling is such a cathartic, beautiful practice. Your tools have definitely elevated my practices this year and I am so thankful for that.
You are so adorable, loved the video… I have been journaling for a while now and sometimes im not that happy with my aesthetic but it has been doing so much for me that i see the value and it never want to stop. Never mind some inspiration also has been so helpful so thank you!!
I saw that glittery box in a previous video of yours and immediately went online to look for it. I needed it in my life and it's so fun to put all my crafty goodies in🎀✨️
Thank you so much for sharing Elena! May I ask do you use your journal for your morning pages, to do lists, planning & mood boards? Just curious or do you use a separate planner? thankx
I love this! I am wanting to get a Journal for my upcoming Europe trip which is just under 4 months - would you say this journal would be a good amount of pages for that length? P.S I'm actually visiting Camogli after seeing your content last year! :)
A journal can just be a cheap notebook. Personalise it by adding stickers, or print out favourite pictures from Pinterest, or even doodle and colour on it if you are a bit artsy. And get some clear film to cover it and in no time you will have a very personal journal you will LOVE to write in. This is so much more personal and appealing than getting over obsessed with having the best notebook and then not wanting to spoil it by writing in it!

I love journaling but I struggle to discipline myself to stay consistent 😅
What helped me was that I looked for different questions on pinterest and answered one or two every day. After a few weeks, it became a part of my everyday routine and helped me to stay consistent and come up with my own ideas. Hope this helps❣
