Note taking for personal development - A beautiful notebook 😊

Thoughts shape up when you put them down on paper 😊. Very true!


I was contemplating buying a notebook, yes the real paper one, to write some notes about the things I need while at work. Then, as usual, after some procrastination, I finally bought this beautiful five subject notebook today.

"Thoughts shape up when you put them down", this beautiful quote in this notebook was truly inspiring.

I stopped writing notes in notebooks a long time ago; instead was using the "memo" in my smartphone or the "notepad" in my laptop. But those things always felt artificial. Let the old-fashioned notebook restore that natural flow and feel :)

Lovely!

You're probably right, using a "traditional" thing provides more options. Luckily, the iPhone's always with me! )))

Rajiv Sankarapillai said...

Think so, anyways will post the feedback asap.
Thank you so much :)

I've been using my smartphone note thing, too, and you've made me realize...I miss my notebook. My REAL notebook. The art of the notebook! You are so right...my notebook always had my favorite poems, and Bible verses, and quotes, and whatever else came to mind. It's time to bring the notebook back. :)

At last I've got company here, thanks Grace :)

Ja wolę swoje myśli i różne uwagi pisać na papierze i bardzo mi się Twój notatnik spodobał. Pozdrawiam serdecznie.

I used to write my thoughts in a notebook until I started writing them in my PC and later, in my blog. But the beauty of holding a pen and marking the pages with our penmanship are far more creative, more sensory and most memorable compared to the technology of today. My students, four years old, have their own blank notebooks in class to illustrate their ideas and experiences through drawings. Teach them early!

My dear friend :)
Thanks a lot for writing this very informative comment.
Only a good teacher like you can write such creative words. I do not think anywhere in the world kids being taught to use a smart phone or tablet to master the art of writing when they start schooling; instead they use a pen or pencil on notebooks.
You are absolutely right buddy:), thanks again for this excellent comment.

Ja używam Google Chrome już od bardzo dawna. Nie wszyscy go jednak mają i dla nich mam gadżet Tłumacza, który nie działa obecnie. Dziekuję , że byłeś miły i chciałeś mi pomóc. Pozdrawiam.
I use Google Chrome for a long time. Not all of it, however, and for them to have a Translator gadget that does not work out. Thank you, you were nice and wanted to help me. Yours.

Hi Giga, thanks a lot !
Perhaps this link may help. https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/173424?hl=en
Or add a translator widget to the blog or reinstall chrome browser :)

Giga said...

Google Chrome, jest ustawiona dobrze, sprawdzała. Gadżet Tłumacz już próbowałam nie jeden i nic nie działa. Taki problem mają też inne blogi, więc może to jakaś awaria systemowa i po czasie, to wróci do normy. Mam nadzieję. Dziękuję jeszcze raz za chęć pomocy. Pozdrawiam.
Google Chrome is set well, checked. Translate gadget not already tried one and nothing works. This problem also have other blogs, so maybe this a failure of the system and the time it gets back to normal. I hope so. Thank you again for your willingness to help. Yours.

Rajiv Sankarapillai said...

Yes Giga, it seems there is some problem with google translate widget. I found a thread about this issue here.

Hope they will resolve it asap :)

Giga said...

U mnie też są problemy mniej więcej od tygodnia. Wszystko się zgadza. Muszę więc cierpliwie czekać . Dziękuję za zainteresowanie . Pozdrawiam.
For me, the problems are also more or less a week. Everything is correct. So I have to wait patiently. Thank you for your interest. Yours.

Rajiv Sankarapillai said...

Be cool :)
Everything will be alright very soon.

Amazing notebook Rajiv.
I always keep a notebook with me. I like to jot down my thoughts and feelings as I have them. It is good to look back in, say, a year's time and know how I felt at that time!

Hope you're having a good weekend :)

Cool comment, Ygraine :)
Traditional notebook is cool, handy and works easily !
Enjoy your weekend, Ygraine :)
