There are all kinds of journals as I previously mentioned.
- Bullet journal
- Journal of your daily life (usually kept as a teenager
- Prompt journal
One of the most popular is a gratitude journal. This is a journal where you write what you are grateful for.
I love these. It is something that is great to have when you are feeling depressed. Just look at your notebook and see a reminder of why you should keep fighting.
I do have a post on a Positivity Tree which is almost the same except this is a sheet of paper or even real branches with paper leaves. Where you write what you are grateful for. It is a way to have it always on display. You can read that here (comes with a printable)

Lists
I personally love to keep to do list when I need to do something that is important. I even have a list of what I need to do with my blog each week
Ideas
All kinds of ideas. You can write down things for your blog, YouTube or other ideas that you have.
Art
If you are into drawing, lettering or anything of that kind then a notebook would be great. They make specific notebooks for making art. These notebooks have blank sheets of paper that are thicker so your markers will not seep through.
You don’t need to be a perfect artist to have an art book. It is a common misconception. The point is to have fun and learn how to do things
Travel
You can make a whole notebook for traveling. A section dedicated to each place you wish to travel to or been.

A good idea is to keep a notebook with you all the time that way you can jot down anything that comes to mind. Also, keep one by your bed. I know when I am getting to sleep is when my brain goes insane.
Of course, you can use a notebook app on your phone or tablet. I prefer actual paper since I am old school and love the feeling of writing. Not to mention, if you don’t save something on your phone or it breaks then you lose what you created forever.

I have a large bound notebook on my nightstand that I will journal in. Sometimes that perspectives changes everything.
I love to use journals! It's kind of an obsession. ?
