A short guide to pronounce Leuchtturm :) LEU=LOY CH=K TURM=TOORM ignore the first "T" The CH is tough for people who are not used to it. Plus there are two versions. A soft and a harsh sounding one. Just use k sound like in "react"
Thanks. I am 65years old. I am beginning with my first journal and I really like your format. I am coping it right now. Do not worry if you did not started at 20 I am beginning at my age! Thanks kid!
I started Journaling when I was 14 and that was 51 years ago. I did not have access to any fancy book for that very first journal but instead I made my own book out of scrap paper, string and the covers are cardboard covered with magazine clippings of birds, glued on with rubber cement. That journal is still intact 51 years later! Along with 30 or so from over the years. My children want me to save so they can read one day, but I think I will redact some things. I suggest to everyone to think about how you want to handle privacy, confidentiality and other people's feelings. If you leave out specific names when writing about sensitive topics that makes Journaling just as productive and removes some of the risks involved. You will know who the person is, but it remains anonymous to future readers.
Wow! thanks for sharing. I've thought about the privacy thing too and I think maybe I'll just go back and redact it one day if I think someone will read it haha
wow amazing i wrote diary from last 2 to 3 years back and now i am 17 years and i want to write journal so that it will not be as private as it is just made for the writer only and i have to let my thoughts ,imagination ,achivements ,failure etc so that i can improve myself............ would you like to share some of your a very long experiencesor experties that can help me to bea a good journal pease i would be grateful for this .... thanks🥰

This is the best Journaling video I’ve seen. It really encapsulates the quote “Know thyself”. You’re not just jotting to-do lists or goals for the year, you’re examining yourself and instructing yourself on how to progress
"you’re examining yourself and instructing yourself on how to progress" is exactly what i thought but couldn't describe. i loved this method and immediately adopted it a month ago and started documenting my fitness journey and when you look back at your habits tracker you can easily spot where you went wrong and where you began to see improvement and take those notes and adjust it to your next month.
My stepdad used to work at Leuchtturm and he often came home with slightly damaged journals. In the end we had two big boxes full of them. Made great presents for everyone we knew :)
I work at a bookshop where we also sell the Leuchtturm notebooks and every year we sort out the 'old colours' that people don't buy anymore and we can take them home :)
@@reysu as a German who also loves those notebooks, I found it really funny how you pronounced the name x) It's like Loi-heet toorm (in German, eu makes a oi sound, and ch is often like a hiss). It's the word for lighthouse, so you can easily check out the pronunciation on any translator ;)
Ive been journaling for 3 years now and have seen a lot of journaling videos, and this is one of the most simple and easy to copy journaling system. The first 2 years of my journaling, I focus too much on making my journal look aesthetic. For someone who's not artistic at all, it's tiring to keep thinking how to decorate every page. Then I realized it doesnt matter, just create your own system, it doesnt have to be beautiful, it doesnt have to be difficult.
The only reason I like to journal is to make my life a story, I'm 16 and it pains me to think that most of what I'm feeling right now or what I'm experiencing now might be forgotten. That's why I want to write more about myself, so I can revisit it later. This all started when encountered a journal of mine when I was 7; I drew comics, and princesses, and shared childish things, but that ignited my passion for journaling. Thank you, I haven't written anything in my journal as school was getting more difficult, but you've made me passionate about it again. Thank you.
I started mines when i was 14 i think, same reason but actually i can't read them yet haha i cringe so much but anyway I'm keeping them, maybe when i hit 30 i could read the first ones, maybe when I'm older i would burn them off with me in my death bed idk yet
@@sasha8007 oh but I think that is wonderful, even if they're cringe; it's something you've written, and that holds value! I'm jealous of you tbh hahah
good point, this is actually very important. because most of the video we were watching content creators say things that they don't believe and use it just for content
I'm 17 and I used to watch a lot of bullet journal youtubers with their neat format, plans, doodles etc. and tried to copy their style or write along, but my enthusiasm usually wouldn't last over 2 months, which caused me to have quite a few abandoned journals. Your video is really inspiring, especially for me as a high schooler, since I don't have that much time to pour onto the aesthetics of the journal, but what you do already catches the "essence" of jounaling (imo). So thanks! I'll give your method a try and look forward to continuing this habit!
bro i was in exactly the same situation 😭😭i’m 17 and i used to LOVE watching bullet journal youtubers (shout out to studyquill & amanda rach lee!) and i tried making all these aesthetic bujo spreads and i was so inspired and whatnot-but only for like a couple weeks lmao, i also think this vid is really great at showing it doesn’t have to be perfect and still captures what journaling should be :)
Journaling will make u feel better no matter how your writing looks. You can journal about just anything u just need to find what works for u and you'll know it's right for u.
We found my wife's grandfathers journals after he passed away, and it was so fascinating seeing what he was thinking about and going through, and tracking. It made almost everyone in the house that day consider starting to journal. I tried using an app as well, but found I had the same issues as you. I might give this a try. 😊
i love graphing stuff, it makes me feel like a organized system for once 😭. My great grandpa didint journal but he had this recipe book, where each relative had a page so they were all mix matched, different hand writings and different recipes. some where not even people we were related to, many where just like random people which makes it such a cool peice of family history to me
This is actually the best and most accessible journaling method I’ve found. I’ve always struggled with pre-structured planners, just doing it your way seems so much easier! Thank you!
I've always wanted to journal but I'm too much of a perfectionist and if I missed some days I would abandon it completely, your way of journaling offers a lot of flexibility, I will try it out and see if I can be consistent with it. Thank you!
I just recently started making a habit out of journaling. This method really seems to allow for flexibility with the process, while still leaving room to be creative. Definitely trying this!
I have been journalling for like 14 years and words are simply not enough how much this thing helps me to keep my life organised which helps me devote time for myself. Thanks for creating these videos and keeping people like us motivated...😉
This is the best journaling video in my opinion because everything is taught so simply and so well without adding in too much stuff or stickers or a beautiful handwriting. Usefullness over aesthetic is what is needed when someone wants to do stuff for real :D Thank you so much for this video, it changed my life.
In my bullet journal, I have letters for tracking and planning my life, which is an extension of what you're doing: [A] something I achieved (e.g. washed dishes) [L] something I learned (e.g. using focus of my camera) [G] something I'm grateful for (e.g. the time to learn stuff) [P] something I'm proud of myself for (e.g. a photo that looks nice) □ something that happened (e.g. made tortillas for dinner; got up late); there are usually multiple of these ○ an appointment/meeting etc And of course the bullet points and associated symbols for classic bullet journaling. Anything that influenced my feelings I color green for positive influence or red for negative influence. On the left side of my page, I have the following system: the left third is taken up by a line graph for my mood, sleep, stress level etc with each day taking up one row and 0 being on the left and 10 on the right. This is inspired by Elsa Rhae's setup and the thought behind it is that you can put the months side by side by pushing the page towards the middle, but that has become irrelevant since I moved to OneNote for journalling. To the right of the graph, I have a habit tracker, just like yours and to its right, the date and day of the week is written. In the right third of the left page, I have a rolling weekly for my week's to-dos that I rarely use, but I don't need the space so it's nice to have a free spot. I also use the Year in Pixels app for its intended purpose and additionally, I use its notes function for a more detailed account of what I did each day (in terms of work, I need that as I'm a trainee). It can look like this: "got up at 11:35 | breakfast | work: thing1\thing{thing I did inbetween}2\thing3 | cooked (spaghetti with cheese sauce)\ate | ...". This actually has really come in useful: I tend to forget what I did, so it's useful for mindfulness. It has also come in clutch when I needed to refer back to something, like what I did on a day at school, when something significant happened (the bullet journal is also useful for that) and more. The whole tracking aspect with the gratitude, achievements etc also really helps me reflect and have a less negatively tinted view of myself and the world around me. Being able to see at a glance using colors what made me happy and what made me sad/frustrated is the most recent addition, but it's been great so far. It really helps me be more mindful of this stuff. The sum of all this has really helped me clear up the fog: a few years ago, I had a bit of a breakdown because I felt like all the newly created past disappeared into a fog of trauma and suppression while all the future was foggy and undirected. It really made me feel like a passenger in my life with every memory being taken away as it was created. Journaling has helped me gain control of my memories. It started as a mere memory support with clues and no real data, and those old entries still serve me, and it evolved to become increasingly detailed. Now, I can draw a line back all the way until fall 2018 and each day along that line, I can populate with what I did. No gaps, no "where did the year go?". Throughout that process of populating the dates with memories, my journal entries are a great help, and the process of creating them in the first place already serves me, it makes recalling what happened a conscious act, so the things I recall are solidified, instead of disappearing in fog. I finally feel like the captain of my ship again and that is a gift of immeasurable value.
thank you for sharing, especially the rationale behind your system. I def have felt the same way re memories sometimes. Will incorporate some of these into my journaling workflow!
it was so nice to see your journal I also like looking back! it’s not even on purpose sometimes but I came across an old wish list/ prayer list and I realized I was able to cross off 5 things and there was about 6 or 7 desires, you don’t even realize you’ve met your goals or prayers have been answered until you look back 😇
Just gotta say I've been watching the occasional journaling video on youtube for months now and this is the best one by far. Practical, simple, and elegant. This seems easy enough to start doing right away and still very comprehensive at the same time. Thank you for this
Journalling literally pulled me back from the brinks of depression and turn my life around a couple of times. Its so fascinating and satisfying to see your own progress, your thoughts, and something even more surprising is seeing how your beliefs change over time, how you can turn your own thoughts about a particular topic completely over a span of time. While I only do it a few times a month, and I write it more like a story or a thought, writing it all on multiple pages at a time, it is inspiring to see some other ways as you mantioned. I'll definitely be trying out some of your ideas and see if it leads me to explore myself in a different area altogether. Thanks
Time blocking is an awesome technique. I’ve found I keep coming back to this as most effective approach. You just have to keep applying the discipline.
it`s so refreshing to hear from the creator that he can skip the page or not journal for a couple of days, because almost everyone else is obsessed with showing this picture of being absolutely and without excuse consistent with journaling like the world will collapse if you skip it once and if you god forbid do it seems like a waste and you have to start over XDD thanks for reality check and reminding that it`s so okay!
This is an excellent tutorial on journaling. I have been doing this for decades. But I am a writer and a visual artist so journaling for me is also a creative piece of art that I am constantly working on. I love all of your self made charts and hands off approach to it all. Well done young man!
I absolutely love this! and will start journaling like this starting next month (feb 2024) , since the beginning of this year I started carrying pocketNotebooks (made them my self) those help me to write down my thoughts aswel and keeps me from doomscrolling again and again. thanks for sharing this way of journaling :)
thank you for sharing this with us ! That's the best journal method. I'm trying to start tracking my time and put a routine you know just get my life together! And i always feel lazy when it comes to Journaling because people always say it's about you talking about your day or writing about specific events and venting and it made me feel not interested. But here i am motivated because you made me feel like it's about joy ! Its about me doing in my own way ! It's my journal not theirs. ❤
This is such a cool journaling system. I made one today and it's so exciting. I think the game-like aspects really help in making it feel like a competition with yourself to leave a good record to look back on. Thank you so much man, this is an inspired design!!
This is almost exactly how I journall and have journalled for the past few years. Im so happy to find a creator who has similar goals in terms of journals in mind!
I want to do this because I have too many notebooks and journals/ loose to do lists. But I write 1+ pages every morning I currently use a planner for all he mentions (tracking, to-dos, goals) but a notebook for "journaling". I don't see how this would take the place of being able to quickly look ahead to future months, like a planner allows. I want to refine my systems, but I don't know how to get away from 3 separate books: workout journal, writing journal, planner ... 🤔
Thanks for the very helpful video. I have been watching elaborate planners and their layouts only to find your simple method covers all I want to track in a straightforward way.
I used to do bujo designs like those aesthetic yt videos every month which of course made me burn out and made me feel chained. That's why this year I'm finally doing it all simple by just using a normal pen and one colored pen for highlighting, so far I've been enjoying it a lot
I recently came to the same conclusion about digital methods of journalling. It feels so good to write things in a notebook that it will be easy to access in the future anytime I want to look at it. Digital calendars and notebooks became so frustrating to me. I like your habit tracker system!
Does it capture more?? The monthly spread seems to be the only thing that’s exactly the same as the bullet journal except he records daily highlights instead of using it to plan things like upcoming meetings or events
@@powerpuff4everyes, the metrics and habits are not part of Ryder’s original example, which I quickly abandoned because it didn’t bring value like his daily log. The addition of the metrics and habit tracker to the monthly log turns it into something that I find value in adapting. I can see how you wouldn’t find the video creator’s version to be an improvement if you are loyal to the original (although I question whether anyone other than Ryder is loyal to the original) or prefer to keep your metrics and habit tracking spreads on separate pages. For me, I want to see the relationship between my events, daily highlights, habits, and metrics. If I spread those things out across the monthly log, daily log, and a habit / metric tracker spread, I can’t efficiently spot the patterns.
I've been doing this for a couple of months now, and can confidently say I absolutely love your system. The fact that it only takes a couple of seconds a day to do, and that I can see an instant visual screenshot of my entire month is game-changing. Thanks a lot for the video!
Whoa. Thank you for sharing this, this might be my favorite video of yours, i love how this method of journaling isn’t forced, but still holds you accountable for your goals. Im 19 and im def gonna try this to (as you’d say) “optimize my life”✍️ Btw ur a rlylyy good drawer
I used to journal a lot but it felt more like a chore than using it as a valuable tool for me to look back on. After watching this video, I think I'll take up journaling again!
This video inspired me to buy a journal and start writing. I appreciate your simple and manageable layout, thank you for taking the time to create this type of content. Keep up the good work!
This is SO useful! I’ve started using a journal for daily to do lists but haven’t found the habit tracker fits in with my needs and routine. Will definitely start this, thanks for the great video!
This was such a good video! I think I'll pick up my notebook again now and use it for a while. It's so easy to fall into the trap of trying to find that one perfect app to manage and optimise your life. Sometimes it's better to just use a simple notebook instead!
I started journaling when I was 14 or 15. Now I'm 21. It's wild to look back even one year back as my thoughts constantly change. Over the years I've stopped just capturing my thoughts in the moment, but also realizations, lessons I've learned, people I've met, things that inspire me and so on. I've realized I will want to know who I was when I'm older to see how I've changed because memory can't be trusted 100%. I've also started adding titles to my entries next to the date so I have a general idea of the topic from that entry.
1:13 this makes me very happy hearing you recommend this brand since I have been on the fence of getting this notebook myself since I want to journal as well. Thank you I will be buying one soon
I LOVE THIS PRACTICE!! It’s s so simple to set up, and you can track so much on one page. I’ve been an avid “journaler” for many years, but I have not used the bullet journal format very much bcuz each time I set up a page, the format didn’t work so well for me. This system is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Its Leuchtturm. Let me explain: the eu is Like the oy in Boy. Loy ..the ch is like the sh from shit L oy sh. T is T. the u is like you without the y. L oy sh T ou. rm is like the rm from term.
I think the closest way you could describe it is like the "h" sound in the beginning of the English word "house", but with the throat a little more closed, like you're hissing.
the „ch“ sounds like an angry cat. But a little bit softer. It‘s near to the energie you need for the word „left“ soft „f“ it‘s a soft angry cat sound. :-)
As a person who has always struggled: to keep a long-term 'journal'... to not miss out doing this in the exam month (or days) and then having hard time recalling whether I did my tasks or not..... this is the best method by far I have seen. This is soooo helpful and I can't emphasise this enough
I like that there’s only a line for each day, it makes it so much less overwhelming. Especially since my husband and I had a baby. She learns something new thing each day or cuts a new tooth etc. And I’m always kicking myself for not chronicling it. Also the habits thing is so visual I love it. Thanks for this and the recommendation!
You could write in code, I used to have my own secret alphabet. Just make up a symbol for each letter and keep a copy of the translation to yourself in case you forget. After using it for a bit you'll get used to it, plus it's pretty fun to do
i used to journal a lot to help me cope, getting all my thought out of my head and onto paper released me from the hurt i was feeling at that time. i am good now wanted to start back journalling but didnt know where to start, this seems easy enough to do everyday . thank u
I have used a habit tracker sheet for the past 2 months and love the idea of using a journal in same way. Great video. I've been watching "how to journal" videos all day and this is the first one that has made me actually write a comment. Well done!
Nice. I've seen some systems where you write monthly goals, weekly goals, and daily goals. That might be complicated for those who are just starting to track their life. One page per month keeps it simple. Subscribed!
This is such an efficient set-up! I journal every day, but it's mainly my thoughts and goals for the day. I also used a habit tracker for a while, but I find things much more satisfying when they are on paper. Having everything in one place is genius. Especially love the highlight of the day part and the little smile you gave when talking about it. So wholesome.
I love this! I'm going to start journaling this year. I used to just write but wanted to try something different. I like your system, thanks for sharing. 😊
You really hit the spot on several areas. Being consistent doesn't mean you'll have to continue with the same format all throughout the year. This became a problem for me too to the point that I stopped journalling because I tend to change interest from time to time. This is by far the most realistic journalling I've seen on soc med. Thanks Reysu!
I love this video. I use very similar methods but I split them across my work notebook and my personal journal. I do the Monthly 2 pager with dates for my work journal, list out goals/projects for the month/etc. but my personal journal is basically completely free form with only writing and sketching. The monthly 2-pager feels very "work mode" for me as a result, but I love the idea of bringing this into my personal journalling habit to capture memorable moments, habits, etc. I've been journalling relatively consistently for the past 13 years, and it is very interesting to go back occasionally to revisit the past. It is almost as interesting to revisit the periods of great change as it is to check in on the mundane. With the benefit of space and time, I have found that revisiting challenging periods to see the raw struggle or pain as expressed in the moment has actually given me greater resilience and confidence. Seeing the raw pain and then knowing I got through it is a helpful reminder that so far, I always come out the other side of a challenge stronger, having grown as a person. The flipside is revisiting those more mundane days. Frequently those have wonderful little nuggets that remind me just how good I have it most of the time. Journalling regularly has helped me cherish the mundane more, and fear the challenges less.
The tracking of habits, highlight of days, and goals you mentioned at the beginning of the video reminded me of how I use my Lavendaire "Artist of Life Workbook." It also helps with life planning for the year, with reflection, commitments to growth, and goal setting (broken down into year, quarter, month, and days). A super holistic workbook that I would recommend, but as you explained how you journal as your goals change and how you document in graphs and pictures was really neat! I journal each night but it's only with words on regular lined paper. I may want to start incorporating how you really capture moments, especially fun milestones like recapping a book you finished. This is a great video, thanks for sharing!
Simply + effective Love the content you’re creating. High quality & helpful. I’ll definitely give this a try myself. Looking forward to the next video. Maybe a video on your Japanese study routine in the future? (I’m looking to study Japanese as well so it’d be helpful haha)
Thank you for this! Been looking for ways on how to journal effectively. Ever since I went through a sabbatical, I’ve made it a habit to journal before I sleep. Nothing captures the essence of journaling better than pen and paper. My notebook tracks all the progress and ideas I’ve made so far and the best part is being able to look back and realize how far I’ve come. Hope that everyone gets to experience the joy in writing about their day. Have fun journaling! 😊
I love how minimalistic, flexible, and approachable this method is. I've always wanted to do something like this, I and will definitively try it out. Thank you for sharing this!
Nothing will save you from infinite scrolling apart from stopping infinite scrolling.

This is truly a realistic method of journalling. I have been trying to stick to digital journalling for a brief period but couldn't stay consistent. I feel more comfortable with a pen and a diary and I am now switching to your method.
Save me from all the pain too? I really enjoyed the video. And it makes bullet journaling and sketching, doodling more flexible which I like. I journal a lot and my thoughts are scattered all over the place so if I make a notebook for writing something profound I end up brain dumping etc., so I feel like I won't be able to follow this video's approach too. Also I have too many notebooks for too many purposes. But I still like the idea here, it feels intriguing.
I get what you're saying, however what I'm taking from this is two structured pages, then blank ones to cover brain dumps until the month is over. Before making the two structured pages again on the 1st of the following month etc. Two types of notebook in one! Good luck for 2024 :)
ive been with a little journal for a couple weeks already and i was struggling in my organisation. this is exactly what i needed, thanks for the vid its really nice
I love to write about books I’m reading or highlighting things that stand out, it helps me truly absorb what I’m reading and not just glazing over and then spacing out
this method which you shared.. feels like magical.. i've tried many apps and writing on pages as well.. but always struggled to arrange them in the right way. excited to give this a shot. tuanks
Holding ourselves accountable is super necessary this is a very wise technique I've been using my phones calendar for the same purpose for a few years now.
Hey Reysu! I was looking to reform my planner to help me keep track of my habits and also include my to do list and I decided to use your habit tracker as well the highlights section! I decided to split mine into 2 pages because I prefer to use lines instead of a grid and put my mood tracker on the habits page too! I also included a mood tracker in mine and i added a visuai calander because I love making those and decorating them to the theme of each month and also helps me to see what I have to do each month or what's coming up. Thank you for the inspiration!
This is by far the most unique Journalling idea video I've seen and it makes it more enjoyable and achievable than journalling about your day every day. The monthly tracker is perfect, as it notes key information and events as well other measures. Also by not eliminated the actual "Journal" elemement by keeping it as sometimes you do want to write about your ideas and how your day was.
for the past years I've been trying to journal. I've seen a bunch of videos but all of them where like "tumblr" "pinterest like" etc so I was never satisfied on how it looked and that was the problem. The fact that your journal is so simple to do is what was missing for me, I feel like I can do it and focus on what's important. So thank you for your video, it might work this time
I did journaling for like 2 years 2018-2020. I didn't write in there very often. Only when I needed to get something off my chest. The whole journal has like 30 -40 entires. But I discovered it again 3 days ago and it was so valuable to me to go trough it again and read the old entries. I'm gonna start doing it again, but this time I'm gonna add a monthly double sided view for tracking daily habits and other simple stuff.
I love your way of journaling! So simple and minimalistic. My biggest issue when it comes to staying consistent is trying to make it some big thing that I have to take time to sit down and do but starting smaller like this and only expanding greater when I feel the need or want to make so much more sense. my notebook just came in and I'm starting it now, thanks!
A lot of you guys asked me what pens I use, so I made a video about it here:

A short guide to pronounce Leuchtturm :)
LEU=LOY CH=K TURM=TOORM
ignore the first "T"
The CH is tough for people who are not used to it. Plus there are two versions. A soft and a harsh sounding one. Just use k sound like in "react"
you pronounce it loishttorm… something like that. I tried my best to get it like english… it means lighthouse
which size do you recommend for the journal? A5?
Why do you call women "Guys?"
start shaving
Thanks. I am 65years old. I am beginning with my first journal and I really like your format. I am coping it right now.
Do not worry if you did not started at 20 I am beginning at my age! Thanks kid!
i am beginning at my age too … youngsters these days are so creative! i have to catch up 😉
You are just 65, you have many more years to improve knowledge and transmit them to young generation ❤
With an eagerness like yours, you're bound to have many, many, many years ahead and many, many, many journals ahead. :)
I would love to read yours someday if possible ~ a fellow internet friend
So good to see your comment! I am 18 and starting today :) Wishing you luck and good health Sir! ❤
I started Journaling when I was 14 and that was 51 years ago. I did not have access to any fancy book for that very first journal but instead I made my own book out of scrap paper, string and the covers are cardboard covered with magazine clippings of birds, glued on with rubber cement. That journal is still intact 51 years later! Along with 30 or so from over the years. My children want me to save so they can read one day, but I think I will redact some things. I suggest to everyone to think about how you want to handle privacy, confidentiality and other people's feelings. If you leave out specific names when writing about sensitive topics that makes Journaling just as productive and removes some of the risks involved. You will know who the person is, but it remains anonymous to future readers.
Wow! thanks for sharing. I've thought about the privacy thing too and I think maybe I'll just go back and redact it one day if I think someone will read it haha
wow amazing i wrote diary from last 2 to 3 years back and now i am 17 years and i want to write journal so that it will not be as private as it is just made for the writer only and i have to let my thoughts ,imagination ,achivements ,failure etc so that i can improve myself............ would you like to share some of your a very long experiencesor experties that can help me to bea a good journal pease i would be grateful for this .... thanks🥰

Privacy is not an issue for me since i use a coded alphabet
Exactly
This is the best Journaling video I’ve seen. It really encapsulates the quote “Know thyself”. You’re not just jotting to-do lists or goals for the year, you’re examining yourself and instructing yourself on how to progress
Perfectly put! This is precisely how I feel after watching the video.
Yes! Most times i fail because it’s too restrict. This is a nice balance of both
"you’re examining yourself and instructing yourself on how to progress" is exactly what i thought but couldn't describe. i loved this method and immediately adopted it a month ago and started documenting my fitness journey and when you look back at your habits tracker you can easily spot where you went wrong and where you began to see improvement and take those notes and adjust it to your next month.
But infinite scrolling brought me here
thank you :)
I know right…
No disrespect, but you look 16.

My stepdad used to work at Leuchtturm and he often came home with slightly damaged journals. In the end we had two big boxes full of them. Made great presents for everyone we knew :)
that's so cool!!
I work at a bookshop where we also sell the Leuchtturm notebooks and every year we sort out the 'old colours' that people don't buy anymore and we can take them home :)
@@reysu as a German who also loves those notebooks, I found it really funny how you pronounced the name x) It's like Loi-heet toorm (in German, eu makes a oi sound, and ch is often like a hiss). It's the word for lighthouse, so you can easily check out the pronunciation on any translator ;)
Do you have anymore??
@@whatsyourname9581hahaha thanks. I was wondering how to instruct the sound.
Ive been journaling for 3 years now and have seen a lot of journaling videos, and this is one of the most simple and easy to copy journaling system. The first 2 years of my journaling, I focus too much on making my journal look aesthetic. For someone who's not artistic at all, it's tiring to keep thinking how to decorate every page. Then I realized it doesnt matter, just create your own system, it doesnt have to be beautiful, it doesnt have to be difficult.
you got it
The only reason I like to journal is to make my life a story, I'm 16 and it pains me to think that most of what I'm feeling right now or what I'm experiencing now might be forgotten. That's why I want to write more about myself, so I can revisit it later. This all started when encountered a journal of mine when I was 7; I drew comics, and princesses, and shared childish things, but that ignited my passion for journaling. Thank you, I haven't written anything in my journal as school was getting more difficult, but you've made me passionate about it again. Thank you.
Don't you are on holiday rn ?
I'm 16 too
I like to think of life as a series of beautiful poems.
same dude! i also like to write in my journal like my life a novel or smh, lol ^^
I started mines when i was 14 i think, same reason but actually i can't read them yet haha i cringe so much but anyway I'm keeping them, maybe when i hit 30 i could read the first ones, maybe when I'm older i would burn them off with me in my death bed idk yet
@@sasha8007 oh but I think that is wonderful, even if they're cringe; it's something you've written, and that holds value! I'm jealous of you tbh hahah
So nice to see someone that has set up a system and has used it for years! So many people like to show your their “set up”, but never use it
good point, this is actually very important. because most of the video we were watching content creators say things that they don't believe and use it just for content
@@emrekaramtrue!
I'm 17 and I used to watch a lot of bullet journal youtubers with their neat format, plans, doodles etc. and tried to copy their style or write along, but my enthusiasm usually wouldn't last over 2 months, which caused me to have quite a few abandoned journals. Your video is really inspiring, especially for me as a high schooler, since I don't have that much time to pour onto the aesthetics of the journal, but what you do already catches the "essence" of jounaling (imo). So thanks! I'll give your method a try and look forward to continuing this habit!
So... you still doing it?
How is it going for you
i am also 17
bro i was in exactly the same situation 😭😭i’m 17 and i used to LOVE watching bullet journal youtubers (shout out to studyquill & amanda rach lee!) and i tried making all these aesthetic bujo spreads and i was so inspired and whatnot-but only for like a couple weeks lmao, i also think this vid is really great at showing it doesn’t have to be perfect and still captures what journaling should be :)
Journaling will make u feel better no matter how your writing looks. You can journal about just anything u just need to find what works for u and you'll know it's right for u.
We found my wife's grandfathers journals after he passed away, and it was so fascinating seeing what he was thinking about and going through, and tracking. It made almost everyone in the house that day consider starting to journal. I tried using an app as well, but found I had the same issues as you. I might give this a try. 😊
On a side note you're going to hit 100k so fast, it won't even be funny. haha These videos are so good.
i love graphing stuff, it makes me feel like a organized system for once 😭. My great grandpa didint journal but he had this recipe book, where each relative had a page so they were all mix matched, different hand writings and different recipes. some where not even people we were related to, many where just like random people which makes it such a cool peice of family history to me
@@DRECKoNex Read that someone's grandma had a similar recipe record too with entries from relatives n friends! How precious!
@@sarahyip2825 half the people wrote in cursive and i can’t understand half of it 😭.
This is actually the best and most accessible journaling method I’ve found. I’ve always struggled with pre-structured planners, just doing it your way seems so much easier! Thank you!
I've always wanted to journal but I'm too much of a perfectionist and if I missed some days I would abandon it completely, your way of journaling offers a lot of flexibility, I will try it out and see if I can be consistent with it. Thank you!
same with me
you got it !!
same, i'm one of those people who if one word I wrote on a page doesn't look good, i'd tear the entire page and start over :/
You are using TH-cam from 17 years it's a lot😂
Incredible. Ive been struggling for over 5+ years on how to journal with no fiction that's meaningful and productive. Thank you.
I just recently started making a habit out of journaling. This method really seems to allow for flexibility with the process, while still leaving room to be creative. Definitely trying this!
hello, r u still doing it these days?
I have been journalling for like 14 years and words are simply not enough how much this thing helps me to keep my life organised which helps me devote time for myself. Thanks for creating these videos and keeping people like us motivated...😉
This is the best journaling video in my opinion because everything is taught so simply and so well without adding in too much stuff or stickers or a beautiful handwriting. Usefullness over aesthetic is what is needed when someone wants to do stuff for real :D
Thank you so much for this video, it changed my life.
In my bullet journal, I have letters for tracking and planning my life, which is an extension of what you're doing:
[A] something I achieved (e.g. washed dishes)
[L] something I learned (e.g. using focus of my camera)
[G] something I'm grateful for (e.g. the time to learn stuff)
[P] something I'm proud of myself for (e.g. a photo that looks nice)
□ something that happened (e.g. made tortillas for dinner; got up late); there are usually multiple of these
○ an appointment/meeting etc
And of course the bullet points and associated symbols for classic bullet journaling.
Anything that influenced my feelings I color green for positive influence or red for negative influence.
On the left side of my page, I have the following system: the left third is taken up by a line graph for my mood, sleep, stress level etc with each day taking up one row and 0 being on the left and 10 on the right. This is inspired by Elsa Rhae's setup and the thought behind it is that you can put the months side by side by pushing the page towards the middle, but that has become irrelevant since I moved to OneNote for journalling.
To the right of the graph, I have a habit tracker, just like yours and to its right, the date and day of the week is written. In the right third of the left page, I have a rolling weekly for my week's to-dos that I rarely use, but I don't need the space so it's nice to have a free spot.
I also use the Year in Pixels app for its intended purpose and additionally, I use its notes function for a more detailed account of what I did each day (in terms of work, I need that as I'm a trainee). It can look like this: "got up at 11:35 | breakfast | work: thing1\thing{thing I did inbetween}2\thing3 | cooked (spaghetti with cheese sauce)\ate | ...".
This actually has really come in useful: I tend to forget what I did, so it's useful for mindfulness. It has also come in clutch when I needed to refer back to something, like what I did on a day at school, when something significant happened (the bullet journal is also useful for that) and more. The whole tracking aspect with the gratitude, achievements etc also really helps me reflect and have a less negatively tinted view of myself and the world around me. Being able to see at a glance using colors what made me happy and what made me sad/frustrated is the most recent addition, but it's been great so far. It really helps me be more mindful of this stuff.
The sum of all this has really helped me clear up the fog: a few years ago, I had a bit of a breakdown because I felt like all the newly created past disappeared into a fog of trauma and suppression while all the future was foggy and undirected. It really made me feel like a passenger in my life with every memory being taken away as it was created. Journaling has helped me gain control of my memories. It started as a mere memory support with clues and no real data, and those old entries still serve me, and it evolved to become increasingly detailed. Now, I can draw a line back all the way until fall 2018 and each day along that line, I can populate with what I did. No gaps, no "where did the year go?". Throughout that process of populating the dates with memories, my journal entries are a great help, and the process of creating them in the first place already serves me, it makes recalling what happened a conscious act, so the things I recall are solidified, instead of disappearing in fog. I finally feel like the captain of my ship again and that is a gift of immeasurable value.
I will have to incorporate some of this!
thank you for sharing, especially the rationale behind your system. I def have felt the same way re memories sometimes. Will incorporate some of these into my journaling workflow!
Love your sharing 👍 Much much more productive than looking outside of ourselves via scrolling.
Commenting here so I can come back
@@Luna-we7kn come back
it was so nice to see your journal I also like looking back! it’s not even on purpose sometimes but I came across an old wish list/ prayer list and I realized I was able to cross off 5 things and there was about 6 or 7 desires, you don’t even realize you’ve met your goals or prayers have been answered until you look back 😇

Just gotta say I've been watching the occasional journaling video on youtube for months now and this is the best one by far. Practical, simple, and elegant. This seems easy enough to start doing right away and still very comprehensive at the same time. Thank you for this
U still doing it?
Are u still doing it?
@@Miaureum Yes actually! I skipped a few months here and there but ye
Journalling literally pulled me back from the brinks of depression and turn my life around a couple of times. Its so fascinating and satisfying to see your own progress, your thoughts, and something even more surprising is seeing how your beliefs change over time, how you can turn your own thoughts about a particular topic completely over a span of time.
While I only do it a few times a month, and I write it more like a story or a thought, writing it all on multiple pages at a time, it is inspiring to see some other ways as you mantioned. I'll definitely be trying out some of your ideas and see if it leads me to explore myself in a different area altogether. Thanks
Time blocking is an awesome technique. I’ve found I keep coming back to this as most effective approach. You just have to keep applying the discipline.
Love your casual and easy approach, feels very coherent and natural. Definitely one of the best journal vids.
it`s so refreshing to hear from the creator that he can skip the page or not journal for a couple of days, because almost everyone else is obsessed with showing this picture of being absolutely and without excuse consistent with journaling like the world will collapse if you skip it once and if you god forbid do it seems like a waste and you have to start over XDD thanks for reality check and reminding that it`s so okay!
This is an excellent tutorial on journaling. I have been doing this for decades. But I am a writer and a visual artist so journaling for me is also a creative piece of art that I am constantly working on. I love all of your self made charts and hands off approach to it all. Well done young man!
I absolutely love this! and will start journaling like this starting next month (feb 2024) , since the beginning of this year I started carrying pocketNotebooks (made them my self) those help me to write down my thoughts aswel and keeps me from doomscrolling again and again. thanks for sharing this way of journaling :)
thank you for sharing this with us !
That's the best journal method. I'm trying to start tracking my time and put a routine you know just get my life together! And i always feel lazy when it comes to Journaling because people always say it's about you talking about your day or writing about specific events and venting and it made me feel not interested.
But here i am motivated because you made me feel like it's about joy ! Its about me doing in my own way ! It's my journal not theirs.
❤
This is such a cool journaling system. I made one today and it's so exciting. I think the game-like aspects really help in making it feel like a competition with yourself to leave a good record to look back on. Thank you so much man, this is an inspired design!!
This is almost exactly how I journall and have journalled for the past few years. Im so happy to find a creator who has similar goals in terms of journals in mind!
I want to do this because I have too many notebooks and journals/ loose to do lists.
But I write 1+ pages every morning
I currently use a planner for all he mentions (tracking, to-dos, goals) but a notebook for "journaling".
I don't see how this would take the place of being able to quickly look ahead to future months, like a planner allows.
I want to refine my systems, but I don't know how to get away from 3 separate books: workout journal, writing journal, planner ... 🤔
Thanks for the very helpful video. I have been watching elaborate planners and their layouts only to find your simple method covers all I want to track in a straightforward way.
I used to do bujo designs like those aesthetic yt videos every month which of course made me burn out and made me feel chained. That's why this year I'm finally doing it all simple by just using a normal pen and one colored pen for highlighting, so far I've been enjoying it a lot
I recently came to the same conclusion about digital methods of journalling. It feels so good to write things in a notebook that it will be easy to access in the future anytime I want to look at it. Digital calendars and notebooks became so frustrating to me. I like your habit tracker system!
This video is gold man. Journaling is so beautiful. I cry everytime I look back at my old journals. You are beautiful, stay blessed.
Tracking metrics is the most interesting part of this to me. I will start journaling tomorrow. Thanks!
Your monthly spread is powerful! I love how it’s simple like Ryder Carroll’s monthly spread, but captures so much more. I may give this a try!
Does it capture more?? The monthly spread seems to be the only thing that’s exactly the same as the bullet journal except he records daily highlights instead of using it to plan things like upcoming meetings or events
@@powerpuff4everyes, the metrics and habits are not part of Ryder’s original example, which I quickly abandoned because it didn’t bring value like his daily log. The addition of the metrics and habit tracker to the monthly log turns it into something that I find value in adapting.
I can see how you wouldn’t find the video creator’s version to be an improvement if you are loyal to the original (although I question whether anyone other than Ryder is loyal to the original) or prefer to keep your metrics and habit tracking spreads on separate pages. For me, I want to see the relationship between my events, daily highlights, habits, and metrics. If I spread those things out across the monthly log, daily log, and a habit / metric tracker spread, I can’t efficiently spot the patterns.
I really love your comment about not having to jot every day and it more being a space to put all of your thoughts into.
A journal style for minimalists. Love this and will use these ideas!!! Thanks for sharing.
I've been doing this for a couple of months now, and can confidently say I absolutely love your system. The fact that it only takes a couple of seconds a day to do, and that I can see an instant visual screenshot of my entire month is game-changing.
Thanks a lot for the video!
Whoa. Thank you for sharing this, this might be my favorite video of yours, i love how this method of journaling isn’t forced, but still holds you accountable for your goals. Im 19 and im def gonna try this to (as you’d say) “optimize my life”✍️
Btw ur a rlylyy good drawer
thank you!! You got this, let me know what you think of it :)
I used to journal a lot but it felt more like a chore than using it as a valuable tool for me to look back on. After watching this video, I think I'll take up journaling again!
This video inspired me to buy a journal and start writing. I appreciate your simple and manageable layout, thank you for taking the time to create this type of content. Keep up the good work!
This is SO useful! I’ve started using a journal for daily to do lists but haven’t found the habit tracker fits in with my needs and routine. Will definitely start this, thanks for the great video!
This was such a good video! I think I'll pick up my notebook again now and use it for a while. It's so easy to fall into the trap of trying to find that one perfect app to manage and optimise your life. Sometimes it's better to just use a simple notebook instead!
I started journaling when I was 14 or 15. Now I'm 21. It's wild to look back even one year back as my thoughts constantly change. Over the years I've stopped just capturing my thoughts in the moment, but also realizations, lessons I've learned, people I've met, things that inspire me and so on. I've realized I will want to know who I was when I'm older to see how I've changed because memory can't be trusted 100%. I've also started adding titles to my entries next to the date so I have a general idea of the topic from that entry.
1:13 this makes me very happy hearing you recommend this brand since I have been on the fence of getting this notebook myself since I want to journal as well. Thank you I will be buying one soon
I LOVE THIS PRACTICE!! It’s s so simple to set up, and you can track so much on one page. I’ve been an avid “journaler” for many years, but I have not used the bullet journal format very much bcuz each time I set up a page, the format didn’t work so well for me. This system is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Its Leuchtturm. Let me explain: the eu is Like the oy in Boy. Loy ..the ch is like the sh from shit L oy sh. T is T. the u is like you without the y. L oy sh T ou. rm is like the rm from term.
The ch doesnt sound like sh.. i dont think that sound exists in english
@@simp4anything2dit would be like k? Maybe Loyktrum?
I think the closest way you could describe it is like the "h" sound in the beginning of the English word "house", but with the throat a little more closed, like you're hissing.
the „ch“ sounds like an angry cat. But a little bit softer. It‘s near to the energie you need for the word „left“ soft „f“
it‘s a soft angry cat sound. :-)
@@simp4anything2d sh is going to get an English speaker closer to the hissing sound.
As a person who has always struggled: to keep a long-term 'journal'... to not miss out doing this in the exam month (or days) and then having hard time recalling whether I did my tasks or not..... this is the best method by far I have seen. This is soooo helpful and I can't emphasise this enough
You deserve a like buddy, and you just got yourself a new sub. Very underrated video not only for journaling but self-improvement in general
thank you so much!
I like that there’s only a line for each day, it makes it so much less overwhelming. Especially since my husband and I had a baby. She learns something new thing each day or cuts a new tooth etc. And I’m always kicking myself for not chronicling it. Also the habits thing is so visual I love it. Thanks for this and the recommendation!
i would love to have a physical notebook but its impossible to do that in an indian household like mine unless youre willing to give up privacy 😭😭😭😭
hahaha always carry it with you
Make it look like a normal class note copy... No one will know trust me
You could write in code, I used to have my own secret alphabet. Just make up a symbol for each letter and keep a copy of the translation to yourself in case you forget. After using it for a bit you'll get used to it, plus it's pretty fun to do
Make your own alphabet. Use Cyrillic or Greek letters. I did it when I was a teenager.
Lmfao THIS RIGHT HERE 📌😭😭
i used to journal a lot to help me cope, getting all my thought out of my head and onto paper released me from the hurt i was feeling at that time. i am good now wanted to start back journalling but didnt know where to start, this seems easy enough to do everyday . thank u
This video was so refreshing.😊
Some breath of fresh air away from influencers living lavish lives and promoting products they don't use
I have used a habit tracker sheet for the past 2 months and love the idea of using a journal in same way. Great video. I've been watching "how to journal" videos all day and this is the first one that has made me actually write a comment. Well done!
Nice. I've seen some systems where you write monthly goals, weekly goals, and daily goals. That might be complicated for those who are just starting to track their life. One page per month keeps it simple. Subscribed!
Top tier :)
This is such an efficient set-up! I journal every day, but it's mainly my thoughts and goals for the day. I also used a habit tracker for a while, but I find things much more satisfying when they are on paper. Having everything in one place is genius. Especially love the highlight of the day part and the little smile you gave when talking about it. So wholesome.
hope you enjoy the format!
how can ~350 people dislike this??
it's such a good journaling method, will try this for march! thank you
I love this! I'm going to start journaling this year. I used to just write but wanted to try something different. I like your system, thanks for sharing. 😊
You really hit the spot on several areas. Being consistent doesn't mean you'll have to continue with the same format all throughout the year. This became a problem for me too to the point that I stopped journalling because I tend to change interest from time to time. This is by far the most realistic journalling I've seen on soc med. Thanks Reysu!
This might be the most frictionless way to actually track stuff. Set up is so easy too!
Thank you for sharing!!
works really well for me!! Thank you
Oh my goodness this was SO helpful thank you Reysu! I cant wait to implement this
Glad it was helpful!
I love this video. I use very similar methods but I split them across my work notebook and my personal journal. I do the Monthly 2 pager with dates for my work journal, list out goals/projects for the month/etc. but my personal journal is basically completely free form with only writing and sketching. The monthly 2-pager feels very "work mode" for me as a result, but I love the idea of bringing this into my personal journalling habit to capture memorable moments, habits, etc. I've been journalling relatively consistently for the past 13 years, and it is very interesting to go back occasionally to revisit the past. It is almost as interesting to revisit the periods of great change as it is to check in on the mundane. With the benefit of space and time, I have found that revisiting challenging periods to see the raw struggle or pain as expressed in the moment has actually given me greater resilience and confidence. Seeing the raw pain and then knowing I got through it is a helpful reminder that so far, I always come out the other side of a challenge stronger, having grown as a person. The flipside is revisiting those more mundane days. Frequently those have wonderful little nuggets that remind me just how good I have it most of the time. Journalling regularly has helped me cherish the mundane more, and fear the challenges less.
Wow, you just keep pumping out high-quality videos. Thanks, Reysu.
thank you!
The tracking of habits, highlight of days, and goals you mentioned at the beginning of the video reminded me of how I use my Lavendaire "Artist of Life Workbook." It also helps with life planning for the year, with reflection, commitments to growth, and goal setting (broken down into year, quarter, month, and days). A super holistic workbook that I would recommend, but as you explained how you journal as your goals change and how you document in graphs and pictures was really neat! I journal each night but it's only with words on regular lined paper. I may want to start incorporating how you really capture moments, especially fun milestones like recapping a book you finished. This is a great video, thanks for sharing!
Simply + effective
Love the content you’re creating. High quality & helpful. I’ll definitely give this a try myself.
Looking forward to the next video. Maybe a video on your Japanese study routine in the future?
(I’m looking to study Japanese as well so it’d be helpful haha)
thank you! That's a good idea maybe
Love the simplicity of this (with the ability to add more to it if wanted) Just bought a new notebook....
The way he is being camera shy is so cute 😅❤

Thank you for this! Been looking for ways on how to journal effectively. Ever since I went through a sabbatical, I’ve made it a habit to journal before I sleep. Nothing captures the essence of journaling better than pen and paper. My notebook tracks all the progress and ideas I’ve made so far and the best part is being able to look back and realize how far I’ve come. Hope that everyone gets to experience the joy in writing about their day. Have fun journaling! 😊
awesome!!
You have inspired me. Starting this today. Great video keep them coming.
I love how minimalistic, flexible, and approachable this method is. I've always wanted to do something like this, I and will definitively try it out. Thank you for sharing this!
Nothing will save you from infinite scrolling apart from stopping infinite scrolling.
This is truly a realistic method of journalling. I have been trying to stick to digital journalling for a brief period but couldn't stay consistent. I feel more comfortable with a pen and a diary and I am now switching to your method.
you can do it!
Save me from all the pain too?
I really enjoyed the video. And it makes bullet journaling and sketching, doodling more flexible which I like. I journal a lot and my thoughts are scattered all over the place so if I make a notebook for writing something profound I end up brain dumping etc., so I feel like I won't be able to follow this video's approach too. Also I have too many notebooks for too many purposes. But I still like the idea here, it feels intriguing.
I get what you're saying, however what I'm taking from this is two structured pages, then blank ones to cover brain dumps until the month is over. Before making the two structured pages again on the 1st of the following month etc. Two types of notebook in one! Good luck for 2024 :)
ive been with a little journal for a couple weeks already and i was struggling in my organisation. this is exactly what i needed, thanks for the vid its really nice

Hey Reysu! I was looking to reform my planner to help me keep track of my habits and also include my to do list and I decided to use your habit tracker as well the highlights section! I decided to split mine into 2 pages because I prefer to use lines instead of a grid and put my mood tracker on the habits page too! I also included a mood tracker in mine and i added a visuai calander because I love making those and decorating them to the theme of each month and also helps me to see what I have to do each month or what's coming up. Thank you for the inspiration!
no need to blur your entries with that handwriting xD nice video!
ahaha
This is by far the most unique Journalling idea video I've seen and it makes it more enjoyable and achievable than journalling about your day every day.
The monthly tracker is perfect, as it notes key information and events as well other measures.
Also by not eliminated the actual "Journal" elemement by keeping it as sometimes you do want to write about your ideas and how your day was.
The "Leu" in "Leuchtturm" is actually pronounced as "loy" in "loyal". :)
Just came back to say I’ve been doing this for 6 months and it is a WINNER. Thank you so much for sharing this approach!!
I'm a Student of Computer Applications, and wanna know how to take and make notes for college

Nice video but I could do without that annyoing music in the background...really distracting.
sorry, will try to improve
I did journaling for like 2 years 2018-2020. I didn't write in there very often. Only when I needed to get something off my chest. The whole journal has like 30 -40 entires. But I discovered it again 3 days ago and it was so valuable to me to go trough it again and read the old entries. I'm gonna start doing it again, but this time I'm gonna add a monthly double sided view for tracking daily habits and other simple stuff.
Please skip the music.
Been wanting to do journaling forever… this is the simplest most easily plug and play system I’ve found so far. Starting!
I love your way of journaling! So simple and minimalistic. My biggest issue when it comes to staying consistent is trying to make it some big thing that I have to take time to sit down and do but starting smaller like this and only expanding greater when I feel the need or want to make so much more sense. my notebook just came in and I'm starting it now, thanks!
