00:00-01:49 - intro
01:50-03:13 - the journal that changed my life!!
03:14-05:05 - tip 1: face outwards
05:06-06:17 - tip 2: journals are a tool not a test
06:18-07:36 - tip 3: writing is thinking!
07:37-08:10 - to conclude
So… you watched all the journal eco-system videos, you lusted over the Louise Carmen notebooks, and a triple digit fountain pen went from being inconceivable to possibly the hidden key to all your life’s problems.
But, after you totally got the budget-friendly entry option, did your life change? Would TikTok now call you a thought daughter?
I sincerely hope the answer is yes. Journaling is wildly beneficial, big fan.
However, if you’re anything like me, the answer is... probably no? And that's the reason I’m making this video! I’m someone who’s journaled for over a decade, across a mix of blended mediums like bullet journaling and junk journaling, but the longform, writing my thoughts down style of journaling only just clicked for me last year. And that is entirely due to the simple changes brought about by one innocent journal.
