**How I structure my daily log:**
For each month I start a simple text document where I list the day and the day of the week (ie "1 Tuesday"), and then below I write out what I did that day as bullets below that.
I also use this document to track other things that feel important to me: my mood, my most important tasks of each day, and who I've connected with that day.
One reason that I separate them monthly notes, is that this makes each month a fresh slate. I can reflect on the previous month and I get a blank slate to reset. For me, separate daily notes feels too separated.
Monthly notes containing my daily logs also help me model my later entries off of early ones. I can quickly see my own examples how I tracked the 1st of the month and that prompts me to add an update on the later entries.
At the beginning of the next month, I just have to set up a new document and I get the satisfaction of a blank slate.
