Why I Bought a $495 Journal

by | Jun 21, 2016 | Blog

I just spent more than I ever thought I’d spend on a journal …

$495.

“Almost $500 for a journal, are you crazy Marc?!?” I can just imagine what you’re thinking, but hear me out …

Anyone who follows my stuff knows that I’m a big fan of journaling. I’ve been telling my community about it for years, and very few days have passed in the last 7 years where I haven’t journaled something.

I have very few addictions (well, my iPhone and social media are in there), but journaling is definitely an addiction!

I’ve had friends tell me that the usual journals that I used in the past (my trusty Moleskines) are too expensive – and they’re $25.

So why would I spend almost 20 times as much for my new journal?

The low Canadian dollar and high shipping fees didn’t help the total. But the specs on this journal are impressive: Italian leather, 1000 large pages (most journals are 100-200 pages, so it’s going to take awhile to fill this puppy up) and my last name is embossed on the cover.

But I also treat my journaling seriously. It helps me brainstorm, think up ideas, solve problems, and continually develop.

The plan is for me to pass my journals down to my son when he’s old enough, so he can learn from the trials and errors of his old man.

I could buy a $3 Hilroy to do it, but I like the feeling of writing in a nice journal (some people like shoes, some people like watches … I like journals I guess.)

I remember hearing a story that the late, great Jim Rohn told. He was on vacation and when he returned to his camper he saw that it had been broken into. In a panic, he ran in to check on things – and he wasn’t worried about his wife’s jewelry or anything else. He only cared that his journals were still there …

That says something!
