> What helps me a lot is to have a new sheet of paper for each day - this is my base of operations - I jot down what I am working on and when I am interrupted, I can simply go back to where I was. Many people use the daily note. It's even built into Obsidian due to the popularity, but it's never worked for me. I'm referencing previous notes and copying data around rather than doing my work. Weekly notes work much better for me. During peak work times, a monthly note is better still. Once you feel like you're fiddling with your system too much, you tend to avoid it.
