title: notebooks
|
||
---
|
||
I definitely do not have a notebook problem.
|
||
|
||
## uses
|
||
|
||
I use notebooks for various things. Those are my notebook types:
|
||
|
||
Bullet Journal
|
||
: The trendy [BuJo][bullet-journal]. A system for organizing a notebook to
|
||
manage tasks, events and notes, and theoretically merge all your notebooks and
|
||
sticky notes into one. The book published by its creator goes deeper into how
|
||
this is not meant as yet another tool for overachievers or todo list app
|
||
lovers, but more of a minimalist tool for mindfulness.
|
||
|
||
: While I already liked notebooks in general, I was afraid of using them for
|
||
various reasons, including gender and my family. The BuJo really got me
|
||
started because it helped me go through my studies, and I kept going with it.
|
||
|
||
: I stuck to the original framework for a while, but slowly started diverging
|
||
from it, especially when I realized that planning ahead was a major cause of
|
||
unnecessary anxiety for me; I don't need any due dates for my hobbies, and
|
||
anything that happens at work is managed at work using the company tools.
|
||
|
||
: I now have split the BuJo into two halves to fit it properly into the Field
|
||
Notes notebooks, that don't have that many pages: one half is the "main"
|
||
journal, numbered with digits, which holds what the bullet journal guide calls
|
||
collections, and the other is the "daily" journal, numbered with the same
|
||
digits followed by letters, which holds the daily logs. There are no yearly,
|
||
monthly or weekly logs, since I don't do any planning there and use my CalDAV
|
||
calendar for reminders.
|
||
|
||
Journal
|
||
: Aka *Diary*; I am still confused on which exact word to use. A notebook that
|
||
holds various thoughts I have, or [morning pages][morning-pages] when I
|
||
practice that. All entries are dated and numbered, so that I remember just how
|
||
many times I ever used my journal. I try to use it every day, at least to
|
||
write down my dreams. The usual structure now starts with my dreams, followed
|
||
by any journaling I want to do, and at the end of the day I will write down
|
||
some [gratitudes][gratitudes].
|
||
|
||
Notes
|
||
: Some random notes, organized with a header for each day and an index at the
|
||
back of the notebook to categorize the notes. Mostly used at work, but I can
|
||
sometimes use this notebook when nothing else fits.
|
||
|
||
Writing
|
||
: To practice handwriting, I started writing blog posts and any other kinds of
|
||
long prose I write, both in English and French, into some notebooks.
|
||
Sometimes, I also use this to proofread blog posts very thoroughly before or
|
||
after posting them.
|
||
|
||
The following notebook types can be seen in the inventory, but I am not
|
||
currently using them:
|
||
|
||
Commonplace book
|
||
: I only did this for one notebook, and it was initially called the lucidiot
|
||
manual. It was intended to hold a whole bunch of tips found in personal
|
||
development blogs, or references for the bullet journal or other note-taking
|
||
techniques, as well as lists of things that cheer me up, motivate me, etc.,
|
||
kinda like a "trying to understand the mess that is my brain" notebook.
|
||
It turned into a commonplace book when I got tired of that and started writing
|
||
down a whole bunch of quotes. I now still occasionally capture quotes or
|
||
journaling prompts, which I write down into my journals.
|
||
|
||
Dream log
|
||
: Back when I tried to have lucid dreams, and got inspired for my nickname, I
|
||
started to write down my dreams every morning right after waking up. When I
|
||
didn't remember, I would still write down "I don't remember my dreams", which
|
||
is the secret to remembering your dreams better by teaching your brain that
|
||
you want to remember your dreams. While the lucid dreaming was unsuccessful,
|
||
the dream log did work and made me remember my dreams better.
|
||
|
||
: I now keep this dream log within my journals, and slowly translate the
|
||
dreams into English to publish them on here.

## inventory
|
||
|
||
Yes, I have enough notebooks for me to keep track of them in a table.
|
||
Again, I definitely do not have a notebook problem.
