hey what's up Doug Pennington here from
niche site project I talked about Amazon
affiliate sites internet marketing
project management and location
independent businesses so in this video
I'm sort of confessing that apparently I
have like a little obsession with
writing utensils and notebooks so I
weeks ago when I was like I should get
some more markers and let me check out
this other notebook I have mentioned
that I like to write by hand versus
typing in fact if I'm going to like a
presentation or if I'm taking notes on
something like live especially like
someone's speaking to me like someone
live talking to me or if I'm watching a
like a video that's training video I
will take notes by hand
there have been studies where taking
notes by hand is literally slower like
writing versus typing it out however
writing forces you to process the
information it forces your brain to
process the information a little bit
more and you end up retaining it better
so there have been Studies on this it's
a thing right it's a real thing where
like if you write things out by hand so
that's part of the reasons additionally
just I kind of like to get away from a
screen if I can't in front of screens
all the time so let me just show you
some of my writing utensils and stuff
and all sort of describing but let's go
down over here okay so yeah this is just
on on the floor here but we'll start
with a pen so I have lots of these I
don't use anything too fancy these are
all pilot g2 pens right so then they
cost like a buck or so apiece and you'll
notice the colors and this is the thing
that I guess is really intriguing for me
so at first I started with just you know
black and blue and maybe red and then I
found this other pack like orange and
aqua and pink and I thought hey those
are super cool but yeah like nothing
fancy they're just you know regular pen
I do like the way the pilot g-tubes
right and they're not too expensive
you could buy refills for like even
cheaper so even if the ink runs out it's
no big deal you could just buy like
refills and they're not that expensive
you could buy them like anywhere so they
use those and then I was like walking
through the store and I saw these
permanent markers which I always have
like a black or blue around just for you
know certain things especially if I'm
like brainstorming or something like
that I'll have these you know permanent
markers it's been I saw other colors
again and these are just BIC they were
slightly cheaper than the sharpies and I
like thick anyway but they have this big
colors they list out as like blue sky
blue fandango pink Key Lime playful
purple we have unctuous red fun colors
right and I'm not sure why but I do
enjoy like the different colors here so
and then notebooks right so I have
several different kinds and this one
here was just like a super cheap one at
Office Depot or staple or something like
that it was like a buck and this is like
just small enough and I'll just carry in
my pocket and like jot down ideas if I'm
out walking or something like that it's
small enough again this is about the
same size but it's much thinner and it's
like a flexible not a hard cover and
this is actually a moleskin or moleskin
a or however you call it and these are
like way more expensive so I actually
don't get these as often because they're
just like so pricey compared to other
notebooks oftentimes I'll just give my
notebooks from Walmart and that's like
where these two notebooks came from so
these are just like plain lined
notebooks here and nothing fancy the
paper is pretty thin in this particular
one here and a lot of times I'll write
like my to dues in this particular
notebook it cost about 4 bucks or so at
Walmart and again
fancy and I'll take this with me in my
laptop bag I'll take it to the coffee
shop write out my stuff and I've you
know I could use one of these for about
nine months to a year or so they last a
pretty long time with you minute info
than I put in them this one here again
from Walmart as well I sort of used it
as like a makeshift five minute journal
so I like wrote out stuff but I was
grateful for and what else do we have
here grateful what would make today
great affirmations and then three
amazing things at the end of the day but
this has a little bit thicker paper and
so I'll use it for journaling I actually
don't do the five minute gentlemen for
journaling pretty often I got this
notebook from Office Depot for the
converted conference so I knew that I
was going to this conference and I was
like well I'll buy a fresh notebook and
this the distinction between this
notebook and this stuff from Walmart the
paper's like way thicker so it's like
higher-quality paper it's a little bit
nicer to write on the cover or whatever
isn't that much different but instead of
like three dollars it cost like ten
bucks and then we have another moleskin
here so again this is flexible a little
bit thinner and I think I picked this up
when I was doing a freelance gig and I
just wanted to have a fresh notebook for
it and something that was sort of higher
quality so I took notes at a particular
freelance gig and then I also used like
a lot of times these will come in from
bowls again they'll come in packs is
like two or three and I basically wrote
quotes and notes from books that I was
reading in the remainder of this
particular book and lastly another
notebook from Walmart and this one is an
exceed brand but it was like during the
school year like sales and stuff in
august-september it's a soft cover but
it's a little bit higher quality paper
and it's dots instead
blind so you did like sketch things out
I got this notebook here because I was
going over a course I wanted to like use
this notebook for a copywriting course
that I was taking so that's all that I
put in here and I'll probably write more
like copywriting related things in this
notebook because that's specifically
what I got it for so like I said so it
may have a problem with all my writing
utensils and my notebooks and stuff but
I'm okay with it it may be good to like
consolidate some of the notebooks so
that I just have like less of them the
other part is going back to find certain
pieces of information I can make sure
I'm like writing the right info in the
right notebook at the same time one
thing that I do is all you know maybe
journal or write a specific you know say
the first draft of a blog post or
something like that or the first graph
of a course lesson and then I'll copy it
over to my laptop right so at that point
like I have an opportunity to like
reprocess it edit it and then it is in a
format where I could find it more easily
it's indexed right most of the time from
writing something like new or creative
or whatever
in that case like the first draft is
something like I know I'm writing the
first draft and I know like in a short
amount of time we're going to copy that
over to a digital format so that I could
like edit it a little bit more readily
have other people reviewing that sort of
thing
anyway these are my writing utensils and
tools that I use just wanted to share
that with you and it can't get more
basic than like cheap markers and like
cheap pens let me know in the comments
below like do you like to write things
out by hand do you only work on your
machine like your laptop do you take
notes on your phone just curious so
anyway if you enjoyed this video
especially if you're into productivity
or that area please consider subscribing
I'm doing more and more on productivity
and stuff like that so again I'm Doug
