I log everything worth remembering and some. Whether it is something I did, a link I want to read, or something I bought. I use a file called log.txt. It is synced across all my devices. I have a very minimal format that goes like this:
# 16/07/2018
- read about did.txt on HN
- [ ] write about log.txt on HN
- cost: 2.9€ coffee at 93
I grep for - [ ] to see my incomplete tasks, and add an x like - [x] when the task is complete. When the file grows large I move months to separate files.
I tried Evernote, onenote, physical notebooks and a hundred other tools. This is one that I settled on. All I need is a text editor on any platform.
Back to the log, there are several times I have visited it to find out what happened during the day. I use it at times as a review of how well the week went and what I could improve on.
