Starting a daily productivity log. It started as a google form but has morphed into a larger spreadsheet. It contains:
Something I completed today
something I worked on today
one thing I couldn’t do and why
a new idea I had today
something I did for physical activity
something I learned today
Each row is a day. It also includes a section for bucket list and yearly goals and whether I achieved them.
I don’t fill it out every day and I don’t fill out every field each day either, but I do try to not get more than 10 days behind.
It gives me a sense of purpose. It helps me remember what I’ve done, so days don’t just slip through my fingers. It also, I think, shows how I’ve grown a bit as a person.
It became really special when I was able to bring it out during my wedding vows. I wrote down on paper many of the things my SO and I did on our adventures and got to share them with our friends and family.
