Thanks for posting your personal framework! I like it, quite elaborate for a single day's entry. Something I took away from your comment was the meta reflection on how you journal and what is most effective/how you could change it to be so.
Something that's really been helping me score high each day lately ( I only do a qualitative scoring entry each day and a quantitative score each week of the accumulated 'feeling' ) is writing down my 'most important tasks' but phrasing it to appeal to my reflective self, along the lines of 'What, if done, would make today a good day? / I'll be pleased with the day if...?' Writing those down first thing gives a great reference point to measure back against.

Definitely agree that general mood and fulfillment is more than just productive accomplishment and I try and factor that in, that said, a day without learning something new / practicing something / achieving something and I'll start to feel anxious that I'm not doing enough. Though with a good enough perspective and will and mental tools you could retrospectively mold the outcome of most days to fit those points.
