In this video I explain how these little pocket notebooks are slowly overtaking my phone by allowing me to be more present and more connected in the real world.

I've used notebooks since February 2023 and it have helped me getting away from the phone cutting screen time by around 50%! I've recently looked into the idea having 2 in different sizes (one for pocket carry and the other one for a bag) as a dual system.

The “free” advertisement was one of the highlights of the video for me. Very entertaining 😂

I absolutely adore the content and the message :] I turned to a pocket notebook just yesterday (I did bujo for quite some time before trying Traveler's Notebook for the last few months) and am really liking the simplicity of it. I just have one note on the video: at times, expecially in the beginning, it felt distractingly fast-paced. I think it could use a little more calm (like doing half as many cuts for example), would really make a great difference. But, still, I liked the video :]

I wish there was a small mechanical pencil, no longer than the spine of the notebook, to keep in that same pocket. Have you come across anything like that?

After watching this, you have inspired me to do the same and I will put my phone away now, and find a notebook!

ooof that title tho... hmm 😕

@dean_tucker 5 ай бұрын

Hey Austin! In all honesty, Yeah I did use the same title as you because it’s a great title. That being said, I did not attempt to copy your video whatsoever. I saw the title and thumbnail and related to it so much because I’d been doing it as well. So I decided to make my own version before even watching your video. This was my story and my perspective. I believe this message is really important and if we can both reach more people to create awareness about over consumption of technology then does a title really matter? If it does bother you I’d be more than happy to change it. I’m not here to create any drama 😊 just watched your video now and you did an amazing job!

All those notebooks, all the writing in those journals, then university and he titles the video, "can this pocket notebook is replace my phone". FFS what sort of grammar is that? 😂😂😂😂 👎👎👎👎

lol typo. I changed the title recently and missed that. Thanks for the call out haha

No, there is no way that a pocket notebook can replace your phone. You use your phone very often, for many hours every day, and you only look at your notebook for a while. I know, I'm going through this myself. You can't fool yourself and others that the iPhone will only be used for calls and you can do the rest with your notebook. The notebook does not have navigation, you cannot pay with the notebook in the store and you cannot play music from the notebook. Do not kid yourself
