# Ebullient Positivity Notebooks This Pocket Notebook Helps You Stop and Smell the Roses By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2013-11-05 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-notebook References: [fancy](http://fancy.com/things/482986813334487703/Expressive-Pocket-Notebook) It can be easy to get stuck on the negative aspects of your day -- from the person who cut you off on your morning commute to the vending machine that ate your last dollar -- but these pocket notebooks are reserved for positivity only. Often, hectic schedules can cause you to overlook favorable moments throughout your day. The 'I Fucking Love...' notebooks are a space where you can jot down all the things that make you smile as they happen. The notebooks (they come in a set of two) have a simple cardboard cover design and 40 pages of plain paper. Since we're more likely to meditate on the negative than the positive, this notebook is a great way to encourage us to stop and smell the roses. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 57% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Life](https://www.trendhunter.com/life) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Positivity Notebooks:** A trend of using pocket notebooks as a tool for positive thinking and mindfulness. - **Gratitude Journaling:** A trend of writing down the things for which one is thankful in order to have a more positive outlook. - **Mindfulness Tools:** A trend of using physical tools, such as notebooks, to promote mindfulness and positive thinking. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Stationery and Paper Goods:** The industry that produces and sells physical notebooks and paper products has an opportunity to market products for mindfulness and self-care. - **Mental Health and Wellness:** The mental health and wellness industry has an opportunity to incorporate physical mindfulness tools, such as notebooks, into their practices and programs. - **Personal Development:** The personal development industry has an opportunity to emphasize the importance of gratitude journaling and mindfulness as tools for self-improvement. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Self Affirmation Reminder Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-100-ways-to-make-you-sparkle.md) - [Positive Lifestyle Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/habit-tracker.md) - [Modular Refillable Notebook Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/notebook-system.md) - [Positive Affirmation Lighters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bic-positive-affirmations-lighter-series.md) - [Empowering Gratitude Journals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keys-soulcare-gratitude-journal.md) - [Leather-Bound Connected Notebooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connected-notebooks.md) - [Positive Daily Routine Elevations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deeddiary.md) - [Mindful Daily Planners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindful-step-towards.md) - [Cubic Minimalist Memo Pads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/memo-block.md)
