“To save the world,
you must first no longer forget.”
You learn a technique
to eliminate forgetfulness
from the Techo Wise Man.
Let’s reveal some
of the secrets
of the Hobonichi Techo.
Let’s reveal some
of the secrets
of the Hobonichi Techo.
The power of the techo has been passed on by the Techo Wise Man. Let’s have the youth show us some of the secrets written inside.
Daily pages (A6 size)
The broad space is split up into four parts with lines. This makes the information neatly arranged for managing plans and tasks for each day.
Hey, this looks easy.
I’ll bet this would help me
stop forgetting!
All you have to do
is draw lines.
It’s a fantastic technique
that’s easy to implement.
Daily pages (A6 size)
You can decide on a theme and past in photos with comments, such as tasty shops or food that you tried.
I see,
this is how you can leave
records of memories.
There’s no need to write
everything about that day.
You might enjoy yourself more
if you stick to a single theme
with your techo.
Weeks
Keep your journal entries to three lines! This lets you keep a lighthearted writing habit with your weekly techo.
If this is the only space
I’d need to work with,
I think I can keep up
just fine.
It’s a good starting point
for anyone who struggles
to keep up with their journal.
Don’t keep your techo tucked away or you won’t feel like bothering to take it out to write in it. Keep it out in a visible place where you’ll see it and can immediately write in it.
Makes sense!
Harder to forget it
when it’s right
in front of your face.
It’s also effective
to just leave the book
open to your latest page
when keeping it
in a consistent place.
If you decide to make sure you’re writing in your techo every day, it’ll come to be a habit. As long as you start moving your pen, you’ll find other things naturally come to mind to write in addition.
Maybe I’ll write
what I eat each day.
I’ve got it!
I’ll make sure to eat a lot
so I’ve got lots to write about!
It’s not unheard of
for a habit to come from
first writing about something
every day.
Keeping one of your favorite pens with your techo can make your techo time more enjoyable. If you get tired of writing, we suggest switching up your pen to refresh things a bit.
It’s cool how much power
a single pen can hold.
It’s important to choose
the right companions
for your techo.
Having the right tools
can be so reassuring.
The techo is more than just something to write in. You can make memories just by taping in things like receipts or event tickets.
I’ve just been throwing away
receipts as soon as I get them.
You’d be surprised
how interesting it can be
to read back on information
about what and where you
bought something.
If you’re not sure what to write about,
here are some themes you can reference.
Dang,
I could probably write
anything with a list that long.
Just write whatever
you truly like.
If you get stuck in a rut,
though, just use these tips.
We have a game
you can play if you’re ever
unsure what to write
in your Hobonichi Techo.
