I have to get over the worry of "ruining" a beautiful notebook by using it. They have a purpose and I just need to start writing in them rather than admiring their current state of perfection.

can i just say how cute it is that you put “Dads selflessness” on reasons to be happy edit: AND “moms smile”

I love how some of these ideas aren't focused on planning but just the joy of writing, collecting memories, favorite things, and new things learned! I've been keeping a journal for language learning to practice both the language I've learned and the one I'm currently self-studying! I was looking for more ideas of what I could include in my language learning journal and I definitely want to try out the brain dump and poetry collection idea!

And those things are surely the things that we live for after all... and you should definitely try the brain dump and poetry collection 😊 I'm glad you liked the video x

I used to write on my diary all the time when I was a kid - dunno how and why I ever stopped. But I picked it up again and recently, and honestly it's been so refreshing. I don't write everyday but still it's such a fun and wholesome thing to do. Reading my old entries (of the few diaries I managed to keep while moving overseas) is like meeting my young-self ^^ Oh, how innocent and fearless I was!

I never really had a diary before but recently started just writing my thoughts out in a super tiny notebook

I love the brain dump and the book logger idea! I hate wasting paper so this is perfect! 💜

All these ideas are fantastic, Ruby. Another suggestion for empty notebooks is to use them for practicing calligraphy, testing stationery products, or writing down pieces of information, songs/soundtracks/classical pieces heard on the radio.

Loved the idea of writing a journal in a foreign languages! Extremely helpful in terms of language progress, and a great way to fill the blank pages of a pretty notebook ^_^

Way back before smartphones were even, I used a little address book (the type with the letters of the alphabet on tabs) as a "books/authors I want to read" notebook. I made my entries by author's surname, hence the letter tabs being so useful. I kept it in my bag and could take it to libraries and bookshops.

I wish everyone a wonderful week and remember: progress isn’t linear, a thing I have to keep in mind every time I am not succeeding. ☕️🌱

Such a cool idea for a video Ruby! I definitely needed this inspiration as someone who has so many beautiful empty notebooks I should really use 😊

Just so happy that I watched this video right now. A loved one passed away this week and I was so paralyzed, also by the thought that I might forget certain memories. This just made me realise that it would be so wonderful to have them written down. Thank you, Ruby!

Oh,I‘m really sorry about this 😕

I love the idea of a notebook just for quotes! That would be lovely to remember favourite book quotes- or even things someone you know said (like something that made you laugh in a conversation) I do that in a different colour pen in my journal that I write in most days. I also like to press flowers in a specific notebook!

As someone who's always teeming with thoughts, keeping an all-around notebook is such as great idea! Thanks, Ruby 💜

I just have started decoluttering my study space! I found 23 empty notebooks. All of them are so pretty, I don't want to toss a single one. Now I have some ideas how to use them. Thanks so much. Loved this video very much. Greetings from Germany!

Ruby, your voice is so beautiful! I can't stop being awed at your voice. And also, your ideas are incredible!

Great suggestions! I still have journals from the beginning of my German language learning journey!.They are so good to look back on and refresh things and reminisce as well. I also carry a notebook everywhere I go and am constantly writing things down! My brain just seems to retain information easier when I write it down.

all the notebook ideas! -book logger -book review -bullet journal -book inventory -quotes* -new vocabulary and phrases -favorite words -book of ideas (write down the things you want to do)* -brain dump -recommendations -language learning journal -outfit ideas -gift ideas -question a day* -reasons to be happy* -handwrite poems (as a gift) -tiny notebook to bring on the go -recipe notebook -lessons you learned (every day) -expenses tracker -language book (grammar and vocabulary) -for meeting notes -class notes -project notes -random research notes* -free morning writing (creative writing) -random things notebook -daily journal -address book i might have missed a couple of them because im kind of tired rn but i hope this helped!

I love the idea of handwriting poetry! I think I'm going to handwrite my favorite poems in a nice notebook and give it to my friend as a gift when her birthday comes around :)

A book for random thoughts is sometimes called “A Common Place Book””. I think it is the best name ever.

I love the name too. I ‘ve read the name dates back to at least the 19th century..

As a huge Brontë fan, my jaw genuinely dropped at your Daily Journal notebook - it's so so beautiful

I never thought that a notebook can be decorated in these beautiful ways... My goodness!! And that BRAINDUMP idea is totally new to me... Gonna try all of them in this new year!! Ruby, truly you are an amazing human being!! 🥰❤✨

I've got my gift ideas on a page in Notion. It's great becasue I can add to it on my phone on the go when an idea pops into my head. What a fab video. Loved this! x

Also, using your notebooks as gratitude logs is a great idea. I have one like that on my own, and every day I just write down a few things that I'm grateful for. It always makes me so happy to go back and see all of the things that made me smile that particular day 🧡

Made myself a nice cup of tea, sat down on the couch with a fluffy blanket and my cat, and this is the first video that pops up on my subscription feed. Can this evening get any better?? Thank you for a great video Ruby, your videos are always so wonderful 💛💛

Ruby, the aesthetic and purpose of this video were so on point together! I don't always know what to do with the awkward amount of a few extra sheets left in my notebooks at the end of each semester, except as scrap for essay drafts-- what a great way to fill them up with these neat ideas! As a writer, I develop sentences in my head that just click, for personal narrative writing, at the most calming, yet worst times, as I assume, most writers do: in the shower, brushing my teeth, at the end of an outdoor run, or while cooking. After replaying your video, I just filled one up with all these sentence "quotes" my brain has developed since last fall and.... feel so much lighter!

I just started a 'Future Plans' notebook. Right now, I am writing my disertation (while also having lectures and an internship) and free time is very limited. Everything that I want to do, but have no time for at the moment, goes into that notebook so I don't forget. After I graduate this year I will be able to do them all :) It is a good motivation to keep going as well: all the fun moments I will have in the Future!

I totally get this. My me time is around 10pm when I get into bed. I’m a full time carer to my terminally ill husband (that’s a 3am to 10pm job) and I’m also decluttering our bungalow and deep cleaning and renovating it (single handed) and I’m writing my first novel and I’m caring for my special needs dog, and studying for my interior design degree.

I do have a lot of notebooks that are partially empty (since the semester is over) , but your video just made me want to write things and implement these ideas wherever I can!

I was having a really rough week at school-this video made me smile. I love your channel ruby-it is such a wholesome, happy channel and has really helped me with studying. Thank you for making me smile :)

I love how you showed examples of each page! And all the illustrations and different tapes are so beautiful!

You are so genuine and sure of yourself, Ruby! I love how your videos have evolved yet stayed true to your style 💫

What a fantastic video! I love journaling, it really is free therapy. Creative and mindful 🧡

Ruby I loved this video! I loved all the ideas, I for sure have a loads of notebooks needed to become filled up so I’m so happy you did a video like this! Thank you 🤍🤍🤍

I love the asthetics of this video and the ideas as well and of course her voice is so calming and relaxing.i just don't know I even put her that video where she talks about the books she read last year .I play that video because it's almost one hour long and it helps me to sleep.

I have a journal where I write letters to people that helped me in some way (any possible manner), at some point of time in my life, in order to thank them. They could be letters to my family, friends, or even unknown people that I do not know, but they influenced me in a positive way. I never really post them to anyone, but when I read through the notebook, i feel the sense of deep gratitude. It is very satisfying, though my habit it may seem odd.

Great ideas. I particularly love the use of colour, creative illustrations and added scraps stuck around the page.

hi ruby!! I've been studying all day and your video is my break

I love these ideas! In particular, I want to do the question a day one. I find it fun to reflect on my favorite things and how they change throughout the year. 📚

Very lovely lists Ruby and love that these ideas are so varied that they may work for all ages and stages and not just students. It is clear a lot of hard work and effort went into the making of this video. Thank you. 🌹

I love these ideas 🤩 Nothing beats a nice notebook and pen. I find physically writing on paper so much more satisfying than typing ✨

this is such a thoughtful video ruby!! i have so many notebooks stored away, and now you have really inspired me to get them down and give them cute little purposes. Thank you so much for the ideas!!!

I love this video so much!💕I do indeed have many empty or half-filled notebooks I don’t know what to use them for. And this video is such an inspiration to finally use them all. The idea I’m probably going to apply for myself is the language learning idea and the random research information idea😊.

You always have me at, "Hello, it's Ruby." There's something unique about your videos; It's a comfortable conversation amongst all of us who listen. I am encouraged to think, explore, be more kind and grateful, and rest in the beauty of life. Thank you!

Thank you for sharing your creativity and genuis with us!!! You are a TOTAL JOY & DELIGHT Ruby!🌞

This video makes me really excited to pick up my diary again and get into creative writing. Sending love to everyone!

I really love the idea of journaling in the language you're trying to learn. That's honestly brilliant

I have my 5-year diary. From 2019 to now, I’m already in the fourth year. It’s so meaningful to drop something done each day! Have a good one Ruby!☺️

This channel motivates me so much to be productive! I really just got into journalling after watching her videos and it has been such a great experiance! :) Thanks for the video!

Such lovely instincts and ideas :) I bought your planner for my wife and she LOVES it. Thank you for all of your videos....love academia, cottage core, well....pretty much everything you produce.

I date them and it's so fun to look back on my lists!). A notebook for letters that you need to write but don't want to send. A notebook for things you're grateful every day. A notebook for song lyrics important to you.

I simply adore these ideas... your the best Ruby. Your unique beautiful soul opens up for more unique and beautiful people.

Thank you soo much for these wonderful ideas Ruby!

Thank you for all your ideas. I love writing in my diary or in my physical notebook for work and I love all kinds of pens and paper. I can't see myself using notion or anything like that and I think, it helps me to remember things a lot more, if I write it with a pen than just quickly type in notion.
