1
Hi, today I wanted to show you how I journal and I journaled for over 10 years now.
2
I'm back in my childhood room so I can even show you the journals that I already filled.
3
This is just one part of it.
4
The other ones are in the back which I'll show you as well.
5
Basically because I've done it for this amount of time, I just want to share what has worked for me and what has stuck with me throughout this decade of journaling.
6
As someone who has a lot of thoughts and this can be quite existential at times, journaling has been really great let's just start with my setup
7
this is my current journal it is the muji pocket note
8
and this one doesn't open flat it's also very bendy so
9
if you write on it you need a surface you know what i like about this journal is
10
that you can just really decorate it how you want it
11
this is my first year actually putting some drawings on it
12
and some like some personalization before my my journals look like
13
this i never really decorated my journals every Every time I open a new journal, I usually get a new notebook,
14
but I think I will stick with the Muji one because I really like it.
15
It will just look more used and more loved in because you don't have that when you have like these hardcover journals.
16
In terms of pens, I'm very not anal about my pens, but I do have a favorite pen.
17
It's the 0.38 pencil by Uni.
18
I got it from Adaiso.
19
It comes out really thin and super aesthetic.
20
but i also have a bunch of other ones
21
that i just grabbed i saw a lot of people with like a leather journal
22
and have multiple journals in one this is my next evolutionary step
23
but for now i am afraid
24
that i put everything in one journal like i put my dreams in one journal like everything
25
and i found it to be the most simple i don't have to carry all these journals
26
but i do believe
27
when i have like a leather strap i can put more journals in like i have some journals open
28
that are just for goals
29
but i don't find myself writing in them i would just
30
put everything in here now moving on to the actual journal practices
31
that have stuck with me throughout these 10 years number one is monthly wrap-ups i don't know
32
if it's because when you get older time just goes faster
33
when i do my monthly wrap-up i feel like i have some sense of control over the crazy time
34
that like it just goes by so fast when you have intention
35
which monthly wrap-ups make you face you just move through life not asleep
36
and that's kind of my biggest fear is having all this time flying by
37
and not using it intentionally
38
and then at the end of life i'm dying with all these regrets
39
but let's not go so existential i will share with you the monthly prompts
40
that i use monthly wrap-ups are great to keep a bigger picture your bigger goal in mind
41
but at the same time they help you acknowledge the good
42
and the blessings
43
and the cool thing is what i've been enjoying is i read back what has worked the habits
44
that have worked the mindset that have worked and
45
and then I can just be reminded every single day or when I need them.
46
Yeah, I just feel like life is not linear.
47
It's like a spiral.
48
You kind of lose some mindsets or lose some habits throughout, but you can always pick them up,
49
especially when you have them kind of documented what has worked this is number one number two is gratitude journaling
50
and i was introduced to journaling actually through gratitude journaling i had a face
51
so i would religiously write down what i'm thankful for every single day i think i did it morning
52
and night and i did it for consecutive years
53
and this is how i kind of got introduced to journaling
54
the key is to be very specific about what you're grateful for not just i'm grateful for kindness
55
but like for example i'm I'm grateful for a stranger smiling at me today and actually feeling it.
56
Another thing that I can recommend is when you have down phase
57
or like a phase where life just feels very challenging sometimes, start saying thank you for it.
58
Like just write in your journal, thank you for this particular problem.
59
And then you kind of continue to write.
60
And that is not to bypass the negative emotions, but to kind of open this new perspective in your brain of potential growth opportunities
61
or good sides of being in this challenge, you know, in this discomfort.
62
And lastly, number three is brain dumps, expressive writing or morning pages, however you want to call it.
63
It is essentially just writing without lifting your pen for let's say one, two, three, four pages.
64
And the goal is to fill up the pages what it
65
does it just helps you organize your thoughts reduce the pressure
66
because when you just have the goal to finish a page
67
or two pages you just start writing
68
but what i found very romantic about writing is
69
that you spend time with yourself
70
so intimately you share your thoughts there's no barrier there's no
71
limits don't have to hold back your negativity don't have to filter anything
72
because you don't have to worry about dragging someone else down you know
73
and you can just vomit your thoughts and it's just
74
so intimate to be with yourself and give yourself the space to just express
75
and listen it's really kind to yourself
76
so apart from just listening to yourself this also has great benefits for me when i write i process things.
77
I close thoughts in my brain through writing.
78
I don't know I just feel it lighter.
79
In the book The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron she does I think four Dina four pages every single morning.
80
For me it took 25 minutes to do it every morning so I stopped doing it.
81
These days what I do is just write in these Dina five pages.
82
I don't really have a set routine timing anymore.
83
I just do it when I feel like it and it tends to be almost every single day.
84
When I'm not doing great I don't write
85
but I don't really beat myself up for that anymore too
86
because self-care or these tools should be there to help you not another source of insecurity
87
or thing that you beat yourself up over
88
so my attitude towards like journaling has really evolved
89
so these are all the ways that I journal currently and
90
that I have picked up along those years
91
and what has stuck with me I hope this was helpful in any way
92
and I hope to see you in the next video bye-bye
93
Thank you.
FOR YOU

用日記梳理生活的真實場景
影片裡,一位堅持寫日記10年的人分享經驗:從童年房間的舊日記到現在的無印良品口袋本,從簡單記錄到每月總結、感恩日記,真實展現了用文字掌控生活的過程。這樣的日常分享場景,充滿口語化表達,是練習英語口語練習的好素材。
實用表達與搭配
- stick with:堅持。如“what has stuck with me throughout this decade”(這十年一直堅持的方法)。
- monthly wrap-ups:每月總結。影片中多次提到,是梳理生活的關鍵習慣。
- sense of control:掌控感。“feel like i have some sense of control over the crazy time”(對飛逝的時間有了掌控感)。
- gratitude journaling:感恩日記。是很多人開始寫日記的起點,高頻搭配。
- pick up:重拾。“you can always pick them up”(總能重新拾起這些習慣),口語中常用。
你的影子跟讀挑戰
現在就開啟影片,找到“monthly wrap-ups are great to keep a bigger picture...especially when you have them kind of documented what has worked”這段。跟著英語影子跟讀方法,先聽一遍,再同步跟讀,注意模仿語氣和節奏。重複3次後,用自己的話複述這段內容,重點練習“stick with”“monthly wrap-ups”等表達。通過shadowspeak訓練,不僅能提高英語發音,還能掌握自然的口語節奏。
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | I've done · has been · have stuck |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | be reminded · was introduced |
什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
