unable to run Jupyter notebook after Pip3 install

Getting error msg in terminal 

Jupyter: command not found

after pip3 install. I did some reading and it seems to have to do with the path pip installed in being different to my working directory? The jupyter is installed in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages and my default path seems to be 

export   echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

I tried to move my path to where jupyter is installed by running :PATH="$HOME/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages/bin:$PATH" But it still didn't work

this one liner worked for me:

export PATH=$PATH:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/bin

Assuming that you are using Linux (based on echo $PATH), you should be able to get working with the following: venv docs

1: Verify python3.7 

which python3.7
/usr/local/bin/python3.7

2: Install venv (look up how for your distribution)

3: Navigate to your project

(mkdir JupyterTest)
cd JupyterTest

4: Create a virtual environment

python3.7 -m venv venv

5: Activate the virtual environment

source venv/bin/activate

6: Ensure it took

python --version #(Should output python 3.7.x)
Python 3.7.0

7: install jupyter

pip install jupyter

8: Run a notebook

jupyter-notebook

I've tested the above on my Linux Mint machine, and I have several versions of Python installed in parallel.
