Hello all! We are coming to an end of the year 2020. Looking back at it,we see so many things happened, so many things changed, so many memories made and so many moments collected to be held with us forever. This recap makes every year special for me, and it gives a reason to look forward to the brand new year coming. So today I’m presenting you with a “collections journal “, where you can add all these memories year long, to get a summary at the end of this year. Most of the journals are productivity based, planning based or goal oriented; but this one is little different. It’s like an album where you can create a snapshot of year 2021. So without delaying any further, let’s take a look inside.
The very first page of this journal is ‘favorite quotes of 2021’ . This gives you a blank page to note down all the beautiful quotes and sayings that you will come across along the year, through books or interviews or podcast or any media you consume or even random wall graffiti somewhere. Note all those words which motivated you, which kept you going, which melted your heart, and keep them with you forever. You can be extra and try calligraphy here, or to make it quirky print out quotes to make a collage on your page. This is a blank canvas make it yours.
The next page is “books read in 2021“. It gives you a chart to keep track of all those books you will read in this year. It had a place to note down title of the books, and a place for you to write comments. You can note down weather you read a physical book, ebook or audiobook. This table has place for only 12 books I know, it’s not much for most of us. So go ahead and make multiple prints of this page when you run out of place.
Next page it’s ‘ movies watched in 2021′ . This page has similar format to that of the previous page, only difference is here you will write names and a small review of the movies you will watch throughout the year.
Going on similar lines, next page is ‘ series watched in 2021′. And I know I don’t even have to explain myself here.
Then comes another blank canvas for you all ‘ places visited in 2021′. Make a doodle or calligraphy or photo collage of your travel diaries here. You can even stick tickets to places you visited here. Make sure all the places that gave you happiness this year are featured here.
Now we get to a little productive part of this journal, ‘skills learned in 2021′ page. Make a note of anything and everything that you learned this year, May that be learning a new sport, upgrading your professional skills or a new hobby. Make all the things you are proud to have learned this year shine on this page. Keeping calm in this chaotic world, developing a new skin care routine or meditating can also count as skill, it’s your journal and you make rules.
Balancing this mindful page comes a fun page ahead, ‘ favorite songs of 2021′ page. Looking back at songs you’ve been listening in 2021, ten years down the lane would be an unique thing in itself.
Wrapping up this journal comes a page to take a yearly review. “Favorite moments of 2021″ page gives you a place to make a note of all those special moments that made this year count.
The last page of this journal is divided into two parts, 2021 and 2022. In 2021 section you will write words that defined the year of 2021, year in few points if you may. And in 2022 section you will write words you want your next year to look like. For example if you were very busy at work in 2021, you will write work in 2021 section. And if you want to make 2022 your year to travel, write travel in 2022 section.
So without further ado, go ahead and check out this journal yourself. Make it fun, make it memorable and create a collection of all your moments here. Hope you enjoy it and do convey me if you use it.
