I immediately got a commonplace book after watching your original video! it’s such a game changer for me especially since it’s not natural for me to self-reflect/journal thoughts! i enjoy this perspective so much more
Someone on Reddit mentioned that it could be a personal encyclopedia and I was thinking of making my commonplace journal something like that. A place where I can write about new facts about animals and such and world history.
That's what I'm doing with mine, I like to collect a lot of information (some useful, some not so much) because I like the idea of being knowledgeable lol I find difficult mixing information that is mine with info that is not (?) like, I don't like the idea of putting my own thoughts (don't know why) but I'm working on letting some parts of me in that commonplace so it could be less of an encyclopaedia. For example I could write why I felt the need to copy that information or the thought process behind, for example I was researching which animal grows the most in his life (relative to its size) and I found about atavism lol
You're passion is palpable and made me want to have a common place book. Unfortunately, I'm also lazy! But I've also been wanting to remove myself more from social media and learn more things that interest me and document this knowledge. I need to stop relying on motivation and just do the things!
i use sketch books to take notes from the books i read. I have stored them at my warehouse at work. The other day, we sold the company, but they said, Frank we have your note book. Yes, I saw 2008. The books I read and my mind set was differnt. Before I lost my parents and freinds. Life was much simpler and the more I found more books on lost and yes, These note books are holding our set in time. Great talk.
I like how you include all the possible things to add - rather than simply one thing you happen to like. It really helps push the usefulness of the concept in connecting disconnected ideas. btw nice chapters!
My sister and mother just got me a notebook and i have been thinking how to use it creatively as i already got a journal for poetry, so your videos are really helping! Thank you!
thank you very much! i've always thought that my usual journal needed a second part because it wasn't getting all of what i wanted to express in it, and having both a journal (kinda use it like a sketchbook) and a commonplace book is all i needed!!
You’re Videos always help me organize my practice still I ask myself if there’s a difference between a common place book and a journal and if yes what this reason is supposed to be?
She said before a journal is more focused on going in depth emotionally and more long winded lengths of text about situations in your life and deeper thoughts and a commonplace book is more chill and short little bits of information with the goal of learning who you are and what you like x
Its a great idea to write, i wasn't great at studying but i love reading and writing and telling a story, you have great ideas, thanks for sharing. Id really like to know how you did your note taking or mind mapping or whatever you did, j am being nosey about you 😊

You are so refined but at the same time so laid back. I want so badly to be like you

But here is the thing, is a commonplace book supposed to replace a classic journal?
I don't understand what i'm supposed to write a commonplace book
