stop keeping different books for different things! embrace having an everything journal, sketchbook, diary, notebook, and planner! Put it all in one book and embrace chaos.
Save literally everything, hoard trash. Cut it up and glue it into a book, YOUR BOOK. next time make the book from scratch yourself. it's beautiful. It's fulfilling. FINALLY a place to put all of those stickers you stroke longing in the store only to put back because "I would never use them" --- now you can use all of them. USE ALL OF THEM STICK THEM ALL OVER EVERYTHING THIS IS MAXIMALISM BABAY
I got myself in a pickle by having multiple journals/notebooks dedicated to specific purposes. I ended up not writing in any of them because they were never nearby when I needed them. So now I have one. If I want to write, it goes in here. If I want to scrapbook, it goes in here. If I want to sketch, it goes in here. Not as ecclectic as I hoped at the moment (it's mostly journaling and creative writing), but the point is these pages have no expectations.
