🤔 Hey, ParkNotes, newbie to the journaling/pen and paper hobby here. I want to express how timely me discovering your videos has been. I lost my wife to metastatic breast cancer two weeks ago; and keeping a diary, commonplace book, journal, and reading log have really helped me through this time. Instead of easing the pain through doom-scrolling on social media or Netflix, I've decided to get really uncomfortable and face the tragedies of life head on by writing all of it down. Nothing will change the pain of losing my love, but the way of pen and paper has provided an outlet for me to grieve well. Thank you for your videos and the passion behind them!
Brother, I am so sorry to hear this. Praying for you now! I'm really glad you're facing it head on instead of doomscrolling and putting pen to paper. These writings may become some of your most valuable possessions after this unbelievably hard season. Thanks for sharing this, man. God bless you brother
Oh man, I’m sorry. Praying for you. 1 Peter 4:19: “Therefore let those who suffer according to God’s will entrust their souls to a faithful Creator while doing good.” May the Lord sustain you through this extremely hard time 🙏🏻
🖋️📓Parker, you’re filling a huge gap on UA-cam. You created the channel I wish I had started! You’re like the little brother I never had. Amazing. Never stop!
📓🖋🤔 I have had so many false starts over the years regarding 'journaling' of any sort, but I keep returning to it out of an inherent drive for analog recording and processing. It awakens something creative in me that is so alluring. Your videos have been really inspiring as I've started to cultivate a more robust and satisfactory journaling experience- thank you for sharing all this with us ❤
Parker! For years I've been trying to develop the habit of journaling. I've had multiple apps, with and without daily prompts, I've bought every journaling / diary-book concept known to man, and I've written two or three sentences in at least 20 different non-aesthetic looking physical notebooks. I love reflecting when out on walks, but never managed to really start taking notes. A sentence in Notes here, a recording of my voice there, but never something of true value that stuck with me. I KNEW getting the habit to stick would do me good, but never managed to do so. Then I came across your channel in june. For whatever reason, your representation of notetaking really hit me. Since then, I've written every single day in my journal, I bring a small "catch all" to work and elsewhere (it's been magical!), I bring a small "field notes" with my on both walks with my dog and when hiking in the mountains of my hometown (Norway, hey!), and I sit down with a physical notebook to take notes whenever I watch something on UA-cam or read an article. In short; it's become a life changing habit in weeks. My favorite time of day. I've also deleted Instagram and FB on my phone, and hardly ever visit the sites at all. All I want to do is either sit down and journal, take notes while reading or watching something interesting, or to go for a walk some place I can find solitude, so that I can sit down and write, contemplate and reflect. All this because of your way of presenting and talking about the art of note taking and pondering. And perhaps also due to your pretentiousness while doing so ;-) Thank you!
Lovely video as always! I have a question. What is that leather thing that helped the pages stay in place at the beginning of the video? Where can I get one? Thank you very much! 🤝🎩💯🏛
📓. Send more prompts like that. I love them. I rediscovered my faith lately (currently reading the ecclesiastes) and i'd like to journal more about the scriptures. I adore your philosophical video, and I would like to see one video to emphasize on Christian prompts and one (another one ) on philosophy. Thank 🇨🇦
📓🖋️ I've been writing some kind of "logs" for the last 5 years, what happened today, what I ate, some word I heard or songs, things like that. Excellent video as always!
🖋 Great video! Love your content. The set up with the outline right infront of you is so neat and clean. Your ability to help trigger people's creativity and learning growth is awesome. Thank you for what you do.
🖋 So the question I'm most interested in exploring is #4 on human nature. I've been reading a bit of St Augustine and his discussion of the state of nature and its inherent goodness that is then corrupted, and its something that resonated with me, so it's something I'll probably expound upon. I've really been spending more time doing this kind of thinking and your videos have helped a lot with that, I look forward to more, and will be implementing a lot of these things just to help me clear and center my mind, as these kind of deep thoughts help me refine my faith and the things I believe far better than any random teacher might. Thanks again!
📔 I somewhat fuse diary and journal. There are days when I'm just working with thoughts, then there are days where I write about events, then that takes me into thoughts and exploration. I have a couple different notebooks with different purposes to try and keep things from getting too mixed up or bogged down, but my pocket notebook catches a ton of stuff that is humorous to look back on. I'll have a note about serial killers for a story idea I have, then immediately after is my note about better phrasing for my thesis statement., for example. Otherwise, the larger notebooks have specific purposes. One notebook per class, for example. I also have a "drop in journal," which is basically the desk version of my pocket notebook. 🖋
📓🖋️Hi Parker, I just wanted to say hello to you. I find your content and approach to writing fresh and inviting. As a fellow philosopher I just wanna congratulate you for your passion and hard work spreading the spark of thinking and the invitation to questioning ourselves. Greetings from Mexico. 🇲🇽
📓🖋 Great content keep up the good work! Probably the one I will be pondering about more is "What is truth" - especially in the time of AI this is something fundamental we should reflect on.
Parker, every video you create is incredibly insightful. You probably don’t even know the amount of impact you’re making in people’s lives. I’ve never taken a college course or had philosophical classes in high school. Your videos are a wealth of information. You’re teaching me how to think deeply, learn more about myself and understand the world.
🖋Journaler here, I usually use notebooks for different purposes, for example one for poetry and stuff like that, other one as a collection on some thoughts about things that occur to me, and a journal for everything like research, what i think about some stuff, a bit like using twitter
📓✒️I started back in early 2019 (because of Arthur Morgan) as a basic diary. It keep evolving and now has a calendar at the front, a to do at the back, a full permanent FYI section attached as a thin a5 supplement and there's a full set of index, futures based off Ryder's bullet system, Maurice move's project management system, as more of a flowchart, a separate monthly stat tracker based of Elsa Rhae's system, and basic formats of reflection and highlights. It's turned into my most important tool. I think that's the point. Just start slow and slowly start modifying your system based off what you need it to be
📓🖋📓🖋📓🖋... I guess you can say that I "journal". I've been writing down stuff. in college ruled spiral notebooks (*not* the pre-perforated kind) for 40+(?) years. I usually fill one up in 10-12 months or so. Mine are sort of a combination of 95% thoughts, ideas, questions, problems (and sometimes (proposed) solutions), "insights", etc. and 5% sort of "diary" of occasional history and/or overview and/or summary of memorable events/milestones/situations in my life and/or my family's I want to make a record of. I almost always pretty much only write stuff down in the morning during my "quiet time" with the Lord, reading my Bible, etc. ... Frequency is sometimes 5 or 6 pages at a time... sometimes 7-10+ days between entries, etc., etc. ... it's just however "fertile" and active my brain happens to be, etc. ....although sometimes if I have an idea, thought, insight, etc., etc. in the middle of the night, I have a legal pad in my bedside table I will write it down on. It is sometimes a struggle in the middle of the night because I don't want to wake myself up too much. The temptation is to tell myself I'll just go back to sleep, because I'll remember it in the morning.... but when I fail to write it down 99% of the time I have totally forgotten what it was the next morning, except that I had had a thought I failed to write down and have now forgotten possibly forever 😊 One of my big shortfalls is that I rarely go back and read what I wrote in my journals. Reading back over them (especially the more recent ones) is on a sort of mental to-do list... but I hardly ever get around to it. Those are very interesting questions... not sure which is my favorite... but in short... since I'm a Believer from the "reformed" tradition, I believe the Bible is the Word of God and that the answer to all these questions are found there... centering on Lord Jesus Christ and the Gospel. But you have piqued my interest, challenging me to articulate in detail exactly what I think about each question and why! Thanks for this and all your videos!
Love the prompts! And just to be annoying (and maybe a little bit helpful).... I take it someone already brought this up, but following etymology, a 'journal' is a daily recount of events. The Daily News is called Journal in French and Journaal in Dutch. It comes from the French word Jour, which just means Day.
📓Park Notes, My Journaling has evolved through the years since I was in high school that is when it began. But I don't consider myself a Pro by any means. I love to learn everyday and improve and I feel like Journaling & Common Books has helped me do that.
🖋📓One thing I personally struggle with when examining my world/life views is I feel like everyone has already thought of everything. Like every thought I have ever had already fits into preexisting theory, far better articulated than anything I could add to the conversation. I've sort of come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter, because writing is fun! even if everything I come up with is inevitably doomed to be derivative lol!
📓🤔 Thanks to you I started, during this April, to collect my thoughts in a Journal. It is truly incredible how the experience of writing can become a real moment of recollection, similar to meditation. Thank you for your advice 💪🏼
Can we look at God in scientific evidence through the just looking a an Atom? Energy, vibration, movement and changes through " physics and chem7" Intersting point on journaling, points are great.
As a note on the first question, you mention several options of views on "God", but not once did you seem to entertain the possibility of there being more than one God. The very way the question is formulated presupposes monotheism and it's offshoots of pantheism, panentheism, deism, as well as atheism. But not polytheïsm. So here's some follow-up questions for you, Parker, and anyone else watching this video, to follow the first question up with: - Is there *only one* God? Why or why not? - If there is not just one but many Gods, how does/would that impact the rest of my worldview?
🤔 Hello Parker. I have been writing my diaries for the last 3 months. I have not journalled yet. I am willing to try journalling next. But only now I have built the habit of writing diaries. So I think it will take some time. I started after seeing your video 3 months before.
📖 | Can you make a new video about Eros? (romantic journal) I really love that video of yours and I also didn't str writing it and you're the only one who has goes in depth about that topic so that's why I ask! 🙏
✒️ Keep up the great videos, could you make a video on what to journal about? Also how to come up with a prompt and how to start it. That would be awesome! Anyways, have a great day!
📓 just started journaling 3 weeks ago but I am really enjoying it. I’m trying to learn to reengage my brain actively, and your ParkNotes has been invaluable! Love your well thought out videos!
I would love to see you do a video on using a journaling Bible! It’ll be very fun to see how you think philosophically and theologically with the text of scripture
I tend to write about my experiences and all my analyses and thoughts regarding them, as well as existential epiphanies I have and any progressions on my view of society and the world based on my experiences and new things I’ve learned. Based on your description of journaling and diary keeping, would you say it is more of a journal or a diary?
First of all thanks you for all your hard work 💖🙏🏻 Second can you pls make a video about your daily routine and how you can minmalest the distraction ❤
📓 🖋️. Journaler here. I diary each day, usually before bed, to unpack my day and quiet my thoughts. I have a box full of Field Notes books and use them to parse out various life focuses. I ditched the digital variants and have found returning to paper and pen much better and much more focused. Plus I get to use my fountain pens more. I’ve journaled off and on ever the years but have gotten more focused with it in the last couple of years. Time to get the philosophical side of things more organized and these are great prompts. I fall more in the eastern philosophy/religion view of things but have never put these views in a cohesive, singular format. That starts today.
🤔 I've been hooked on the idea of having a sort of "second brain" by which I can observe and study it, and journaling is the best way to do it I guess.
I actually use mine the same way! Something chewing at me and I need to think it through. Lots of times I'll just note it in my pocket notebook and then when I have time (or energy cuz that's a big part of it) I'll finally sit down and work it through
Park is that pen that was just above your journal a fountain pen? Mont Blanc? Great video as always. You got me back into Philosophy after years of graduating with a collegr degree in Philosophy.
dude, do you know how to get rid of that new-leather smell? i just bought leather cover, like it, but the smell is just too much for me. ik maybe couple days/weeks/months it'll be gone but maybe you know how to get rid of it quickly.

📓 just started journaling 3 weeks ago but I am really enjoying it. I’m trying to learn to reengage my brain actively, and your ParkNotes has been invaluable! Love your well thought out videos!
I would love to see you do a video on using a journaling Bible! It’ll be very fun to see how you think philosophically and theologically with the text of scripture
I tend to write about my experiences and all my analyses and thoughts regarding them, as well as existential epiphanies I have and any progressions on my view of society and the world based on my experiences and new things I’ve learned. Based on your description of journaling and diary keeping, would you say it is more of a journal or a diary?
First of all thanks you for all your hard work 💖🙏🏻
Second can you pls make a video about your daily routine and how you can minmalest the distraction ❤
🤔. Why is this so difficult! Haha
@@aaronboggs9094 😅 corraling your thoughts is tough stuff
Great video! What notebook are you using? 🖋️

And thanks!
🤔🖋 I really like these prompts. Gonna use them as part of my routine.
🤔 I feel like I should be a journalist since I am a writer, but my fictional work is like my diary/journal.
📓 🖋️. Journaler here. I diary each day, usually before bed, to unpack my day and quiet my thoughts. I have a box full of Field Notes books and use them to parse out various life focuses. I ditched the digital variants and have found returning to paper and pen much better and much more focused. Plus I get to use my fountain pens more.
I’ve journaled off and on ever the years but have gotten more focused with it in the last couple of years. Time to get the philosophical side of things more organized and these are great prompts. I fall more in the eastern philosophy/religion view of things but have never put these views in a cohesive, singular format. That starts today.
🤔🤔🤔
🤝🤝🤝 glad to have you here. I hope the vid helps
@@ParkerNotes it's does thank you for making all these great video keep it up brother 🫡
This is a great set of prompts. I like the Universe one best - I actually journalled a bit about that one not long ago.🖋📕
🤔 I've been hooked on the idea of having a sort of "second brain" by which I can observe and study it, and journaling is the best way to do it I guess.
📓✒️ My favorite question to answer is probably going to #1!
i don't (or can't keep) journal consistently, but i use it as a catharsis journal
I actually use mine the same way! Something chewing at me and I need to think it through. Lots of times I'll just note it in my pocket notebook and then when I have time (or energy cuz that's a big part of it) I'll finally sit down and work it through
@@ParkerNotes 🍻📓📓💪 it's therapy for me and also what you mentioned, first jot down in my pocket notebook then think it through
📓🖋 What does it mean to live a good life? What can I do this month to direct my life towards what I define as a good life. Great stuff as always!
Awesome content

How do handle thought that comes at odd time but you want to write them down? Especially if there if many conepts.
📓 + 🤔.
I never feel like I am doing it right, and more scared of someone getting access to what I write
Park is that pen that was just above your journal a fountain pen? Mont Blanc? Great video as always. You got me back into Philosophy after years of graduating with a collegr degree in Philosophy.
