hope you enjoy this different style of video! finally updating you on some of my books. also apologies for poor audio in the first couple mins - it gets better! xx if you haven’t seen Jordan Clark’s video on WHY you should start one - I highly recommend as she inspired me to start to my own!
I just watched Jordan Clark's video, too! I'm actually half way through filling mine in with favorite quotes...and also little plant and flower drawings :D Such a perfectly timed video for my life - lol!
Sustainably Vegan I actually started this two years ago and hadn’t realized this was something people did. I write quotes down I either make up or find.
A very dear friend made me a book for my 18 birthday - half filled with great (lovingly handwritten) quotes, half empty for me to continue. She put so much work and love in it, it was great! And I've continued ever since, am now about 50 and on my third book where I collect quotes. If you do it for a longer time, it's also interesting to go through it and see how the quotes I collected match the experiences I made at that time - there are things in there that I would never write down now, but remind me of certain times in my life.
Really a great thing to do
I love your voice. It‘s extremely calming. Watching your videos (especially this one) feels like meditating.
Slow living and minimalist living
is the way to go today. This was
a most charming video. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks.
Never heard of the term "common place book" before. I've learned something new today and it's a nice idea: I've always wondered what to do with the interesting quotes I find on books and how not to loose the precious learnings I find in them. Thanks!
So calm. Everything is being said in it's own time. You purposely left empty seconds in this video and they are beautiful.
I really love the more contemplative / lifestyle oriented turn of your content.
I have a similar notebook where I write down every quotes that inspire me. It's really nice to read back the quotes I write and to see that they still resonate in me. Great video! Much love 💜
How crazy is that timing ? I swear I started one an hour ago... 😂Love youu
I started an "art journal" three years ago now (that's very neglected at the moment). I choose a favorite quote from every book I read and make a watercolor/art design of it.
I would love to have a full list of books you recommend when you've got time!
Also, 100% support the change in video and the creativity you've been dishing out, thank you queen.
Sarah Karver i have one..., how about The Girl Who Drank the Moon ?
I started a quote book 13 years ago, writing down all of my favorites, but it's since gone to the wayside once I got older, finished school, and stopped reading as much. This was validating to see someone else do the same, and motivational to perhaps return to the reading and writing down of favorites.
You should look into a commonplace book box. The way it is designed would really help with keeping all your quotes organized. I actually just issued this challenge to my entire community. I'd love to have you check it out and join us for 2020!
Geez I never knew that what I’ve done over the last 30 years had a name (Common book) I just called it notes. And my interpretation of those quotes and ideas and conversations with others. I love living a simple handmade lifestyle and love your vids.
Deborah today after many many years I discover that noting down my favourite quotes has a name ". Jan02 2020 everyday I learn something new (or rather old things through new eyes)
This video is so beautifully made. It's so calming and enough to hit the right points. Thank you so much for sharing and I'm excited for your upcoming videos! Huge fan all the way from Malaysia. ☺✨
I keep a "list a day" book which asks you a question each day and you answer truthfully how you are feeling. I tend to jot down quotes in this too and notes on my anxiety that day (poetic or matter of fact depending on my mood!) 😊 really helps I think ❤ thanks Immy great video as always xx
I keep many notebooks mainly of ideas for stories I would like to write, lists of things to do etc bucket lists etc.... another book is for my Thursday church group full of ideas for speakers and outings etc , the notes I will take at committee meetings for forth coming programmes. Church newsletter notes before I put it onto the computer etc x I don’t as of yet have a bible study plan or a prayer journal but I’m working on finding the quiet time I would like and also finding the right platform of study x
I don’t comment on videos often, but I had to for this. In a strange way this made me feel really emotional because it reminded me of words that have enriched my life experience over the years. Words have power, thank you for sharing this aspect of your life.
Beautiful. You have inspired me to create a commonplace book🍀
there are only one or two female yt-channels that I can listen to because of my high sensitivity to sounds, but yours is so far the best I've listened to !!!
Love your way of speaking, your intonation, your calm but not monotonous voice. It's such a pleasure for my ears. And this being a vegan channel makes it a perfect combination. Thank you and greetings from Austria, Vienna.
“Essentialism by...some man.” Literally YES. 😂
heh heh
This made me to laugh out loud.
This was a beautifully made video and I just started one of these books a while ago and love it. My last finished book was actually Essentialism :)
Love this video! Keep up the great work :)
An absolutely beautiful video - love this style
Very happy to see other people do this too. I have one for years now. Not only for great quotes I read or hear, but also for song lyrics and pictures. It is a little brain gallery :) Love your work (and your voice) xx
Hey Immy! I'm not usually one to comment on videos but just wanted to let you know that I've been watching your channel for a little bit now and really enjoy your videos. This one is particularly great in that I've found myself in the past trying to collect quotes, poems, etc. but was never really successful. This video inspired me to try pulling together my own "common place" book, so thank you for that!
Keep doing what you're doing! And thank you for being an inspiration.
I enjoyed this video so much. Please do more videos about the books you’re reading
I love this idea so much! Collecting all of those wonderful tidbits in to one place.
I keep a journal and I always save the last 10 or so pages for my favorite quotes and ideas that inspire me. Great video!
Same here, I've been doing it for a couple of years now and it's a great solution!
I really like this idea!! I’ve never heard of this before. I used to write all my favorite quotes on my wall as a kid, but wanted a different way to hold on to them as an adult that moves around, so this is an awesome idea!
Love this idea and what you have taken from the books you are reading.
I've started reading a book a month for about 3 months now. Hoping to increase to a book every 2 weeks eventually. Hearing what you are taking from your reading challenge is inspiring.
I really love your book recommendations. I have read This Changes Everything, Prisoners of Geography and Pachinko so far and I loved each one, especially Pachinko. I'm more of a writing into my books person and this is mainly what kept me from getting a kindle, also forgetting about the books that I read. But I really like this idea. Maybe I'll reconsider it one day ;)
Thank you so much for this video. I started a book where I’d write down my favourite book quotes years ago but never really went trough with it longer than a week. Now I’m very excited to also include snippets of books, movies and conversations into my journal. Also: the Beginn of your video was wonderful! 😌
Don't forget when you write those quotes down to also put the book name, page number, and why it spoke to you at the time. That way, when you come back to it, you will not only have the quote, but everything you felt when it moved you. 👍
You really come across with such a beautiful spirit
What a beautiful idea. I read a lovely quote the other day about karma. Wished I had written it down, I will start one as I have lots of notebooks but find them too nice to use. Thank you. Peace
This video embodied what a commonplace book is for me. It is a place where you collect everything that moved you, where you collect sentences that made you think. It is a place of calm and reflection, in the moment of reading and writing down what moved you as well as in the future, when you reread what you wrote.
And sometimes, I find myself smiling about the things I have written down, because I have changed so much and because my world view has changed so much.
Great video, thank you!
Thank you so much for your beautiful words and for watching and commenting 💚
This is why I am using the note card system and a commonplace book-box. Much easier to organize and then find what you previously wrote down. I am also challenging my community to do the same.
English is widely spoken. But what
beats me is why many English
speakers expect everyone to just
speak English to them. Glad I live
in Switzerland where most of us
speak Swiss German, German,
French and English. We do not
consider this anything special.
Surely brings our nation together.
This was a special video. Thanks.
I understand what you are saying about the expectations that others should speak English. But I do think there should be common language around the world. I think English should be that language.I already speak Portuguese (my native language) and Spanish.
I do this to . I use Evernote or Google keep to write my fav notebook
So nice to feel like I am on the same wavelength with other people in the world. :) I've been doing a similar thing with notes/quotes from books, podcasts, lectures, and meetings with mentors. This slowed-down, reflective approach has helped me to be more selective about the content I consume. And using a thin, re-fillable journal means I am only toting around current inspiration, which encourages me to be more productive with my art, not waiting to address new ideas...great video topic. :) (I enjoyed T.N.'s BAC book, too!)
You should use the note card system and a commonplace book - box. Much easier to keep it organized and find what you are looking for when the time comes. I made a video on it, but you can find a number of them on TH-cam. It was made popular by Ryan Holiday and Robert Greene because it is what they have used to write books.
*I just learned about common place books about a month ago, and I am pumped up to get mine going for 2020!*
I am a fan of the note card system used by Ryan Holiday and Robert Greene. Have you heard of it before?
*I have issued a challenge to my community to create their own commonplace book in 2020.* What a way to help you keep track of where you start and end the year!
Thank you Immy! I have mine online.
I'm happy to learn there's other people out there revolutionizing their lives, questioning the establishment ideas and habits within them, and their consequences, inventing a different lifestyle and experience, being odd but aithentic and responsible... It's a difficult but rewarding journey. Let's keep going!
I like the idea of keeping record of your most inspiring quotes! What I like best is writing them in a beautiful way and putting them on walls in my student flat 😄
This is fantastic!!!
This is a great idea! I’ve been doing a reading challenge, trying to read 40 books this year. I’m on book 28 so far..I wish I’d jotted down some stand out quotes from those books.
Fantastic immy one of the best and my fave ... because of my love of 📚.... super coolio ....love the books you have read. What a super amazing girl you are 🙏🏾
I love this video, its truly a piece of art. Thank you immy for sharing our thoughts
thank you so much for watching and commenting - it means a lot
I put all quotes that I love while reading on my phone in Notes but this looks so much better!
I really love this idea!
Loved this ❤️
Very inspiring thank you
I guess I have a book you could call a common place book. I write down anything from stories about my day, to notes about a book I'm reading, to do lists, its a beautiful mess inside my book but its fun to look back and become more self aware.
and this video truly is poetic and peaceful.
I do the same thing! I write the best words of the books I am reading. I really enjoy doing that :-)
My common place books are usually crafting projects and diy ideas that I don't want to forget.
I am 100% going to make a commonplace book, it is so inspiring :)
I love the pen u use in the video! Which pen is it, and where can I buy it?
Do you have anywhere we can find the list of books you've read? I'd like to give some of them a read xx
Loved this video you made me want to read born a crime ! I was wandering if you read the book Becoming, Michelle Obama....If you didn't, I advise you to read it during your challenge, I adored it !
what notebook did u use? i love it
3 posts in the span of a week? Girl is slaying! Super cute vibes in this video.
I have a quotes book too 😀
You should look into using the note card system to better organize your quotes and more quickly find them. It is fantastic! Although, it will take up more room than a small book.
3 minutes in and this is already the best video
ah you're too kind
Your notebook made me wonder if you've ever heard of Karst stone paper? They sell things like notebooks and planners with paper made from 100% recycled stone from the mining and construction industries. This is stone that would normally be just thrown away, but by making paper out of it they're not harming any trees and they're using 1/3 of the carbon footprint of regular paper. They also utilize solar energy during their process of creating the paper and it's all 100% recyclable through regular paper recycling. I have no incentive to promote their stuff, but I found out about it recently, thought it was really cool and since you're one of my favorite youtubers, it made me think of you! :)
Thanks for your nice video. I think when appropriate we should care for each other and respect each others opinions.
I think you would really enjoy reading 'A Constellation of Vital Phenomena' by Anthony Mara - it's a about the recent history of Chechnya told through the lives of a series of people and Mara's writing is absolutely beautiful. I wrote down so so many quotes of his
Also 'Playing in the Light' by Zoe Wicomb is great - I just finished it a few weeks ago and it's about apartheid in South Africa
Where did you get this notebook from? I’m struggling to find the perfect small notebook!
I would just look up a5 kraft notebooks or travel notebooks on amazon!
did you see Jordan Clarks common place book video?
Yes! I literally felt called out by her haha I thought it was such a brilliant idea and decided to start my own specifically for my book challenge
I don't think you've been showing the updated version of your commonplace book like you said in the end.
1:03 was that the holy sound of a fuzzy deity in the background?😻
More like a book journal.
Hello! I just wanted to comment further on language. I am an Asian American and have seen an influx of English only speaking Americans (predominantly white) who are trying to engage in conversations with strangers like me in some other language other then English. The pros are that I can see they want to try to connect but the cons are the rudeness that just because of the way I look they automatically assume I would enjoy the familiarity of another language. I grew up with white people who were very ignorant in my culture and even making fun of my accent or my name. But the best way I feel that we should approach this new age of whites wanting to be more welcoming is not by language but by Being treated just the same
This video smells like sociology~ What is sociology? It is the study of the development, structure, and functioning of human society.
