Yeah, I've used time tracking software before and it was pretty effective, but I think something about having the log on paper, separate from the rest of my work, makes it feel somehow more intentional psychologically. It's also a little bit lower pressure since the idea is for me to accomplish the amount of work I want to accomplish rather than to fill up a certain amount of time, so with the new system the success metric is a bit more pared down. But I agree that "one goal a day + time tracking" doing essentially the same thing I have written in the post.
