What journaling habit has helped you keep on writing? Let us know how long you've been journaling in the comments! Make sure to like this video if you want to see more journaling videos.
whining about stuff!
The advice of late Dr. Charles Stanley is what got me back into journaling. He would always remind people to write down all the small miracles or answers to your prayers that happen so that you could remind yourself of the good things and encourage yourself when times get rough. I started noticing much more miracles and serendipity events in life and find more things to be grateful for! 😊 And it really does lift up the mood and gives me hope when I go back and reflect on the good things that happened.
Excellent advice! @@Runner8617
I’ve been journaling for more than a decade now but lost my old journals so I guess since 2015 counts?
Habit that keeps me journaling is a new pen! Throughout the years, I’ve experimented and collected pens to match my desired aesthetics. It wasn’t until JetPens when I really started spending money on stationery and it’s safe to say that my go to now is 0.4 Sarasa Dry black. My long time pen however, is a Faber Castelle LV5 blue ((:
Margins may be a game changer for journaling. They're perfect for little additions or adding titles to passages. Thanks for the idea.
I was thinking the same thing. It never occurred to me to journal in this fashion but I can see the usefulness of it. It reminds me of Cornell notes or some commonplace notetaking styles I've seen. I do appreciate this setup as I've gone back in my journals (nearly 30 yrs worth 😊) and it would've been nice to have a tag of some sort. I only know the general years or months maybe in which it was written and then skim till I find what I want. This would really help with being able to reflect or review previous memories more quickly. ^-^
Videos about videographer-san are always a treat
Exactly what I thought!
Thank you videographer-san! I know you're more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it. I always appreciate when you share!
I think my biggest tip for journaling is stop sweating it. Even this frugal style of journal shown in the video is eons above anything I ever produced if we talk about aesthetics. My writing style is fast and loose. The reason I write is not to make a beautiful book but to keep my thoughts and experiences.
Another tip in not sweating it is don't feel obligated to explain your absence to your book. If you miss a day or a week or a month, you don't have to make excuses for the missing pages. Just get back at it. I mean if you bail a friend, you may have to come up with an explanation but the book doesn't judge. Feeling obligated to have a good reason for not writing can make it harder to get back on it, so don't do it.
I have been writing a diary for almost 30 years.
It's amazing how not feeling pressured to write daily makes you want to journal every day!
I know i shoudknt be giving out tips if I just started journaling but my little tip (that I guess most of u know anyway..) is that DONT worry about making it look good. It’s not like you’re going to show this journal to the world or anything, it’s just your little space to write down what thoughts and feelings you were having in the day to clear up overthinking. Nobody is going to see it, and nobody has to see it.
The paper's texture is one reason I love writing with a fountain pen, as the scraping sound (within limits, obviously) it creates feels relaxing. I don't use the most recommended paper brands for fountain pens because I write too much each day for it to be cost-effective. Instead, I use different affordable brands that I've found working with fountain pens, meaning I get a wide variety of feedback when writing on these papers.
One thing I've learned from this is that the fountain pen itself also matters. I have some cheaper STYB fountain pens (bought for taking notes on travels without the fear of losing my more beloved pens) that feel a lot scratchier on some papers despite having a broader, medium nib than my Lamy's with a fine nib. But this complexity between paper, pens, and ink is why fountain pens are so enjoyable, no matter what you use them for.
I keep multiple journals-- a 5-year "one line a day" journal, where I write sometimes mundane details about my day, a commonplace book where I write down books I want to read, movies to watch, lines of poems that I like, interesting facts, etc., a nature journal for remembering the funny (and sometimes sad) things I've seen wildlife around my house do, a garden journal to help refine my vegetable/wildflower gardens, a gratitude journal, etc. The only one I write in daily is my one line a day journal, and the others are for whenever the need arises, or when I feel like it. I would be lost without my journals.
Great ideas! Thank you.
A garden journal sounds super fun! It would be a great way to record when perennial plants come back each spring.
I've been journaling everyday since early March 2020, right before the COVID lockdown hit America. It began with a sentence for every day for two years, then when I got a Hobonichi A6 it naturally lengthened to a paragraph 😅. My aim is to write something positive about each day because my mental health often leads me towards depression. Journaling the good stuff has really improved my life, and I truly enjoy looking back. Although I do know a short entry generally means it was a bad day, however it could've been from years ago so I do not remember what was so bad anymore! Really gives perspective
I loved this! Thanks. I also found that Morning Pages were a great excuse/reason to fill up old notebooks and half-used diaries/journals. Even the dated ones that I didn't finish. It's so satisfying!
Making sure to jot down even the most mundane things in life has kept me journaling ❤ you chose very relaxing music for the video. Your handwriting is gorgeous…I’ll write about it in my journal tonight!
That's such a good habit! Glad we can feature in your daily entry 😊
the hype i felt seeing this was a videographer/san video! ❤ i’ve started journaling to try to work on my mental health (i have some conditions that make long and short term memory difficult and journaling helps a lot with that, along with breaking thought spirals by getting them out on the paper). it really makes such a difference. i carry my midori md notebook everywhere so i have the option to write even if i don’t always take it. journaling also gives me a way to use all these nice pens and inks i’ve been accruing haha
I am a teacher and I actually love writing reflections after a lesson… I keep my class reflection in notebooks… and I use different colored inks to identify the type of lesson I am reflecting on… for example I use multiple colors of blue to reflect on my Motor Development class… and orange inks for the Measurement and Evaluation class… green for Teaching Methods class… (these are Kinesiology classes) I really enjoy it!
I've been journaling for twenty years now! It's a way of life... of coming home to myself no matter where I am❤ I usually practise a combination of morning pages (anytime pages, more like😁), automatic writing, and gratitude journaling.
Great video, videographer-san! Like yours, my journal is a hodgepodge of just about everything. My main tip is that there is no wrong way to write (or draw) it. (Someone asked me, years ago, "You mean, you can write dialogue in your journal?" Sure, you can!) I have kept mine for 50+ years now. For a few years, I had switched to keeping one only electronically, but then returned to writing in longhand; my notebook travels everywhere with me. (Decades ago, I was writing outdoors in a public space and heard a woman nearby say, "Ooh, is she writing about ME?" And I thought: I am now!) I've written in planes, trains, automobiles, boats, waiting rooms, shopping lines, etc. Pre-computer, I had used index cards to categorize content. Then I switched to typing up my handwritten journals on computer so that I could use the search function, and I continue that practice. My journal notes (which I call my "raw data") have yielded stories, poems, artwork, and more. Notebooks have varied over the years, from cheap blank books and pages in 3-ring binders to artist sketchbooks. My current notebook is a large Moleskine sketchbook, but I recently ordered a Leuchtturm1917 120 gsm A5 from JetPens, which is comparable in size. To tell my notebooks apart, especially those with black covers, I write the date range on the spines and front covers with a silver Sharpie. I use fountain pens, which are easier on my carpal tunnel these days. Keep up the great writing, everyone!
I started like 3 years ago but I keep stopping and coming back to it. I feel my life is so plain that there is nothing really to write about. I always wonder how to people keep writing? and now with this video I realize when I am lost in my thoughts instead of struggling to understand them I should write them to help me.
When I find myself leaving long chatty comments in fb groups or talking AT my spouse about my thoughts, it's time to do some journaling!
@@blindaurora is AT an abbreviation for all times ? Just wondering
@celeste572able oh, sorry, I capitalized the word at for emphasis. I meant talking at my spouse rather than talking with them or to them. As in, I have so many thoughts to share that I am just talking without giving them time to respond or keeping tabs on whether they're still engaged.
I wasn’t expecting this but it’s really satisfying
I recently started journaling and these videos are always so fun to watch, they give me so much inspiration ❤
What helped me with my journaling is, similar to videographer-san, making sure the process is as frictionless as possible while also making sure the little details make me happy. I make it a whole ritual where even the sounds of moving my stationery around bring me joy just like this video. It actually makes me want to go and jot down this moment because of how much I enjoyed it :)
Seeing how other people use the products they buy with their own money really helps to make the site and channel feel more personal. Keep em coming!
I recently started, so I'm still trying to figure out what I like to write about. I wrote down that I need to write things down that interest me, so I can expand on them later. I think that's gold! I also recently started focusing on the good things that happened during the day, then figure out what thing I could improve on tomorrow. :)
I started journaling in a 5-year journal with prompts specifically for parents since at the time I had 2 kids. I love to keep small memories accumulated about them as the years pass (and I've since added another kid). I finished that 5-year journal last year and copied the prompts into a fountain pen friendly Midori 5-year journal to keep it going. I also started a "morning pages" journal recently...it's helped me combine my desire to start a dream journal, but also help get a lot of my thoughts out of my head before I'm starting my day out of bed getting myself and my family ready. Thank you for sharing your tips
Midori 3 or 5-year journal is like Facebook Memories when I read what I have written on the same day years ago.
I wish I'd done that.
Love the JetPens ASMR! I've been journaling 43 years. The struggle is deciding what notebook and pen. There are so many I still want to try from JetPens!
I have only been journaling since November 2023, I have tried many times, but was always worried about someone reading my thoughts, or that I had nothing to say.. Now, it’s a reflection of my day, when I feel lost for words, prompts help.. and I don’t sweat it if I don’t journal for a day or more. Some days are just meh in my head.. Having a subject helps when you feel like this, good to see it’s a tip, so I’m not on my own with so much going on my mind goes ahhhhh 🥰
I really liked your video. I journal every day too. I think people believe that you have to do something special to be able to write about it in your journal. That could not be farther from the truth. There is beauty in the every day. I write every day about doctor’s appointments, what we are having for dinner, about the weather, what I did that day, what I really liked that day and what I didn’t like. Since I have been writing every day for many years now the words just flow out but when I find the words are not flowing I don’t push myself and find something else to do instead. I never guilt myself into writing. I only do it when I truly feel the need. Naturally throughout the day I gravitate towards my journal. I do take it everywhere I go. I am that one person in the doctor’s office not on my phone!❤
i like that you're willing to show stationary you don't sell!
I love watching videos that feature Videographer-san! So soothing and useful and on-point. I'm probably a bit older than Videographer-san and have been journaling off and on since 1977. These days I mostly journal just to watch the ink flow out of the pen. I write about how much sleep I did or didn't get last night, or what I ordered from JetPens that morning. 😉Doesn't matter, it still looks pretty. And I also journal about a question or situation that's vexing me - it's how I think and sort things out.
Videographer-san has inspired me to think about journaling with a pencil! I've always resisted that because pencil is 'ephemeral.' But it's not unless you actively erase it. I have loads of notebooks and paper that will work perfectly well with a pencil and I like writing with pencils almost as much as with fountain pens. Thank you for the inspiration, Videographer-san!
I started journaling about 2 months ago. I actually found it really useful to help me explain things, thoughts and emotions as an autistic, I mainly wrote down what i saw, what i felt, what was thinking about and many similar things. At the beginning I started with short paragraphs to get the feel of it, and when I finally felt comfortable I started lively writing pages about literally anything.
It has taken me years to figure out what was stopping me from journaling and I think that I have finally cracked it. My mind thought that in order to journal you have to write down literally everything that happened each day and only that. Well turns out that that was wrong after all, it was this video along with others that made me realize my mistake. I mean we all start somewhere right? 😅
I love writing with a heavyweight mechanical pencil. Loved my heavy shaker pencil last time. Don't think it is still in production. And a big Pentel eraser.
Journaling is amazing, I’ve done mine since summer of 1998. I just write down what comes to mind. And I don’t force myself.
"my journaling is a smattering of thoughts, ideas and emotions" could not be more true. It's just a sheet of paper for me to vomit my frustrations and excitements on. I often go back a re-read some pages and think what was I on that day
Nice to see my favorite Annie Dillard quote in there!
🍃Each morning I do a small drawing in my journal and then have fun answering a question like...what does my spirit want to do today? It is always interesting what answer I write down. 😊🍃
Journal ing is a lifetime topic frrm year 0 to 100+
I personally love how writing looks when I've filled up a page, so that helps keep me motivated to keep going :)
I love you, videographer san. Would you consider doing a small tutorial of how to doodle people? I can draw but I have a very heavy hand and I find very difficult to draw without some sort of guide (not tracing, but like seeing someone do it or getting instructions - which is kinda dumb, I know) but once I get it, it becomes like second nature and I’m able to ad my own spin on things; I just find it impossible without watching someone do it first so I can figure out how long in need to do a line or how to do something round… my brain is kinda dumb like that 😢 and is a bit frustrating. I can do faux lettering and cursive now because if the tutorials here, but drawing is still a mystery to me. Please help. I don’t want to be a master, I just want to be able to do a quick drawing of me emoting without it looking like a shapeless potato. I just can’t find a jetpens quality (camera close and very patient) turorial . Am I making any sense? 😢
Hi there! People are definitely challenging subjects to draw. Videographer-san and some other team members are trained artists, and they mentioned it takes many hours of looking, sketching, and redoing to make progress. For Videographer-san, her art professor taught her some techniques from the book "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards. She finds that realism helps her to understand shapes better, which then she can simplify into "cuter" forms.
We don't have a lot of art tutorials, but we have plant doodle videos on our channel if you wanted to try them out!
th-cam.com/video/mLXFE9jR_dk/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/IaGeEhvT_m8/w-d-xo.html
recommend checking out Amanda Rach Lee! She has a whole playlist of videos on how to doodle all kinds of stuff 😊
@@JetPens I found the book! I also found another called “Drawing with Children” by Mona Brookes, I will try them out and see how that goes. Thank you for the response, I appreciate it 🥰
i recently got into journaling and it has helped me a lot with my mental and emotional health. definitely helps me process things that i have experienced throughout the day and getting dumped. it's also a good excuse to use all the stationary i have been hoarding throughout the years
Your cursive is lovely. I'm inspired (need to pull out my mechanical pencils, too - it's been a while of just ink). Thank you!
A really practical guide to journal. Using a pencil is really smart. Thanks for the video.❤
I am a religious person and I use my journal when I am too emotionally confused, when I don't know which path to choose or what to make of a set back in life. I am one of those people who can't fall asleep because there are too many thoughts crowding our minds; I am a compulsive thinker. But when I can't get to a resolution even after going in circles all day that's when I pick up my notebook and talk to God. Helps with acceptance and moving on.
I like a lot of space to journal and document and reflect and store stickers (Hobonichi Techo Cousin), but not a large notebook to carry around daily, so I also have a Hobonichi A6 grid notebook I use as a task book. Loving this system 😊
if actually only properly started journaling…today. today on the 21st of april. i feel relieved after doing it, so my tip to everybody is, no matter how stupid you feel it is, no matter how much of a tangent it is, write it down! spend the extra 15 minutes getting it off your chest. 💖💖
I picked up the kleid life mobile notes section with the teeny grid paper at a shop local to me on a whim. It's my new favorite paper and notebook!!!! I'll get my next one from JetPens!
This is fantastic, thank you for sharing ☺☺
A little every day. I have a Hobonichi weeks level of journaling: a little every day, and the blank sheets in the back for the overflow. It's a good excuse to practice my handwriting and play with different calligraphy fonts. I always have a sketchbook (decades of the habit), and only use 2b lead in mech pencils (7 or 9mm) (love the Kokuyo inspitsu!) for that; videographer-san is correct - there's less feedback and the lines just flow in pencil.
I need a video on just her handwriting. It looks so fast and efficient
For writing in mechanical pencil, I heartily recommend the Uni Kuru Toga Advance Upgrade. It has a good weight to it, and it's smooth to write with, it feels like a rollerball!
Thank you for this video. I'm just about to place another order with JetPens. I'm going to look into those Life notebooks. (As if I need another notebook!)
I like to look up prompts when bored - new year prompts, life prompts (like birthdays), reflections, etc
Good >>>>> Thanks
now i need to find this pencil
That’s my pen grip too, I wish I could use a Lamy when I journal but alas
I start my 1st Bullet Journal on 1st of May 2022 (small book for trying) , 2nd Bullet Journal on 1st of July 2022
Mine is Bullet Journal, have mini diary, appointment date and favorite life quotes from anime or movie
Avoid making journal too cute looking or fancy looking for 1st journal, as cute and fancy looking takes time to do, as time flies, may feel lazy and not motivated
I'm using different color of highlighter and pens to decorate my Bullet Journal, sticker used for signifier or marking at important dates or notes
I'm writing my 4th Bullet Journal currently
ASMR, sublime audio!
Hello! Is the smudge-proof lead also left-handed-smudge proof? I love my mechanical pencil but always shade my page in grey clouds from my hand passing over the lines and drawings I make...
Nice video i enjoyed the simple video
I love writing with mechanical pencils but after a few years it fades away so have switched over to ball point pens. Gel pens if there is water smudges even after a few years.
I see that you created a narrow column on each page. What do you use that for? Keywords? Titles? Would love to know more! And thank you for this video!
Excellent!
As a person who is interested in journaling but does not know what-and how-to write, i follow your videos carefully.
I have a request/suggestion: could you consider making a be video for newbies who are not creative (don't have artistic bent) but want to develop this habit? You could demonstrate some pointers regarding what to write-and more importantly how to addresse the dread that stares at the person when he/she sits down to write?
Thank you!
Hi there! If you have trouble thinking of topics, you can check out our Journaling Playlist. This video might be more of what you're looking for since you're just starting out.

These LIfe Notebooks have beautiful covers!
Hey! What happened to the video you guys released two days ago? I was hoping to watch it then I saw it was removed??
바른손!
I love to journal. Where do get those notebooks at 3:43 from? They're too cute.
And I like that ink color at 3:33. I wonder what color it is.
Notices Moon Rod sticker there
After you have journaled for several years, how do you organize your journals? How do you keep them?
Hi there! It depends on your personal preference. Videographer-san keeps them on a bookshelf because they fit for now. If her collection got too big, she would consider scanning and shredding them to save space. If there are certain entries she likes more, she would keep that spread!
Obv this doesn't work for everyone, but for the past 5yrs BulletJournaling (the minimalist, "official" way that Ryder Carroll created and shares) has been my saviour in all walks of life when it comes to journaling
Noticed the margins are bigger. What do you write in those?
Videographer-san uses the margins to write in "headers" for quotes to make it easier to skim. Sometimes she goes back into her journals and adds in more reflections months or a years later!
Request that you have over-dubbing or bigger captions. I have a hard time reading these on my phone.
Hi there! Thanks for letting us know. We added captions in TH-cam, which you can access by clicking the CC button in the video. If you go to the Settings button next to it, you can click on Subtitles/CC then Options to change the style of the captions to your liking!
You have beautiful hands. You could be a hand model.
Do you have any left handed people writing with fountain pens in a notebook? 🤔 I need more left handed examples in my life.😢
Hi there! You might find the previous journaling video helpful. Connie is left-handed and uses mostly fountain pens to write with!

Damn, videographer-san handwriting style, cursive !
