The intro!!! 👏👏👏 Also definitely in Camp Many Planners For Compartmentalizing Life, so I felt very seen by this video.

As much as i love planners and i love using many planners, i realised this year that the more planners i have in uso the more stressed and less productive i am. So i just quit most planners and have one structured one with dates etc, and a companion notebook for daily notes, to dos etc i really admire people who can keep up with that many.

Your video got recommended to me by KZfaq. I like how your video started out with the stop motion overview of the journals, and your voice and talking pace are just right to make me want to continue watching. What you said about the journals resonates with me and I decided to subscribe. Hope to see more fun videos soon!

New subbie here. I see you and game on. I've been in planning for 10 years and I've never thought about being on KZfaq. Seeking your energy makes me want to hangout on KZfaq.

Very nice sketches... it’s a great idea to have many journals for different topics specially for notebook hoarder like me nyo!

Ey I’m learning Korean! It’s easy to start but I’m stuck on sentence structure rn! 😂

It's great to see someone masculine who isn't shying away from like a lot of the I guess "stereotypes" when it comes to like planning and all that. Like, obviously the bar is very low, but it's neat seeing stickers and colour in these planners rather than just things being ... basic? I don't know, there's nothing bad about having no colours in a journal/planner. Will def check out more videos of yours!

16:27 I suggest maybe ruling up the bujo to the Hobo weeks layout so you can practice the practice of filling up each day with your lines/book notes before buying the weeks! (They release april editions if you need more time!) That way you can fill up the current one :) As a fellow person who compartmentalises - this video of multiple notebooks is soooo validating!

I would love to see an in depth tour/explanation of the programming journal.

I'm a big fan of a purpose specific notebook / journal. I use a basic Moleskine Cashiers notebook for my coding client work and if they ask for my notes I can drop it in the mail without losing anything of personal value. (purchased a bulk shrink wrap of 5 or 6 at Costco a few years back cheap at effectively $4-5 each)

New subscriber here, I love the intro. Yes, I'm in the same camp as you. My core system, which only last 1 year is 3 books. However, the remaining part of my system consists of 11 notebooks which will last over a few years.

The intro voice is what made me subscribe haha! 🖤

Intro rocks - seriously! I definitely like all the planners and notebooks because it is a hobby - not just functional!

Haha. No judgment for the coffee shop vibes. I TOO want that life…I love creating coursework for students, grading assignments and planning for the next semester while in a social environment and drinking my coffee-but what will I do with this man and these kidz though🤔🥴😂 I am currently using a Laurel Denise horizontally full size with project planner inserts. I have a separate wellness journal I started with a notebook I found at Target. I think after watching your VERY AMAZINGGG hobinichi video I may consider using the techno hon, I think this is the one with the month and dailies only, as a wellness journal in 2025.

Previously I only used one journal, but in 2023 I used 3. Loved the separation of things. A journal for a specific purpose, it works well for me. So glad you are sharing how you are using your journals

Wouh! I like the idea of the hobonichi for the language learning ! I’m learning Korean and Chinese at the moment and will follow your lead!

Can’t wait to see your journey down the fountain pen rabbit whole 😊

The Language Planner is such a good idea! Esp with the Hobonichi.

😂 "reorganizing our lines" I had to repurpose two separate fitness hobo weeks last year. I really wanted to have my life together in that area, but I realized that I jus don't need that negativity in my life 🥲 I ended up turning them into ink swatch journals, I can't toss that TRP! I've been a lurking on your channel for like 2 years back when you would do the A&O sub boxes (I'm proudly one of your 13%) and can't imagine you not bullet journaling! I get it tho, I feel like when I got into TRC and then the glorious Hobonichi, I couldn't bother drawing anymore lines and trackers in my personal bullet journals. This year I'm lying to myself and plan on doing one book for 2024, but I hear my TNS calling me. I look forward to seeing your Korean progress. I want to learn it so bad, even if it's just to understand my k-dramas ☺

I’m using my premade planner for daily stuff, and a bujo i got from michaels for my goals.

Bunch of great journals! I'll be using 1-2 A&O bullet journals for my personal BuJos, a hobonichi plain for long form journaling, 3-4 other journals for hobby journals, and work planner is in OneNote.

Love your content, keep going! I love seeing a guys perspective on journaling and planning and all things stationary❤

Wow your art is incredible. I really really love the style of urban sketching soo much! I totally love how your people are looking! Anyways, glad i found your channel; it's nice to have a dude in my journaling youtube lineup!

Cool lineup!

Skill stacking! Love to see it! 🙌🏾You are inspiring me to go back to my sketching.

I would feel guilty changing subjects mid notebook. Watching you cross out titles is nerve wrecking for me. But maybe I could find the courage and do the same. 😅

New subscriber 😊 I was so catched by that intro, that is such a great idea to show your journals!

Absolutely inspired by this video so much that I downloaded Duolingo to restart learning Chinese. I also purchased an A6 Hon for my language study. I already use a Hobonichi weeks for personal planing and a Cousin for work but could not justify a Hon until now. For urban sketching, I use a Moleskine Sketchbook. Keep the videos coming.

Loved this video! I was especially enamored with the intro and all the spinning notebooks 😅😍So don't judge me, I'm in my Sterling Ink era. They're all going to be Sterling Ink, so I won't list the brand for each one..... B6 full year caramel planner is my daily driver/catch all planner, a B6 black compact notebook is my "messy notebook," aka random notes/ideas/thoughts/instructions from doctor/short term things that I need to remember/things to research/etc. Basically anything that needs to be written down ASAP, but doesn't have or need a long-term spot in one of my other planners/notebooks. Next, I have a passport forest green planner for a line a day/short memory, and if I want to expand, i can either use the notes pages in the back, or journal in my B6 catch-all. Next, I'll have an A5 caramel compact planner for my reading journal. Like you, I'm very excited to start my reading journal and think it will motivate me to read more. Next, I have the quartz "Weeks" compact planner as my social media planner. I just started a KZfaq channel and need a space to get organized. I was originally trying to fit it into another planner, but it needed it's own space. And lastly, I have the Mist Weeks compact planner as my writing planner. I'm an aspiring author, and again, my writing life needed it's own space. Phew, I think that's everything. Oh! I have a Black compact Traveler's size notebook as a backup, because you, know, you never know when you need another notebook! Now that's everything. Sorry for writing a manifesto, but you literally asked for it 😝

love your vidoes obviously! which pen do you use for the tombow river paper and the owl journal? cuz i find those to be a bit thinner!! I also just set up my 2024 bullet journal! let me know what you think! :)

I love the idea of the lists notebook.

Discs are my answer for everything but have you considered using a discbound reading journal? It sounds like having to choose the number of pages for each book is a pain-point but with discs you can add more later 😊

What a GREAT vid and thanks for the great explanation, please do lose the (distracting) music underneath, your voice and story are interesting enough, ✨ Love and Light from Amsterdam Holland 🌷

yeah I watched The Boy and The Heron recently as well and couldn't really follow through the storyline whatsoever. I'm a big fan of abstract stories but it was too hard to really understand what was going on in the movie, and it's funny how people would rate it 10/10 or call it okay and no in between. After reading other people's reviews of the story though I began to get what the movie was about but I still have mixed feelings about the movie.

I began my planning systems with Bullet Journaling and I moved on to planners including the Hobonichi weeks. I just love the Weeks layout so much but I find that 1) it is not enough space for me which is really a shame and 2) I feel like I don't have the attention span to use 1 book and 1 type of layout the whole year so I am thinking of moving into a Stalogy as my planner and using 3-4 Stalogy1/2Year books each year so I can vary the layouts and have extra space.
