I want to take daily notes to keep track of my tasks, achievements, thoughts and appointments.

The problem is that every time I start journaling, I’m initially very motivated.

However, after one or two months, I get bored with the app or system and either switch to another one or completely abandon it.

I appreciate any advice or insights.

    The key is to skip all the YouTube and instagram-ready blogger posts that turn journal decoration into a hobby. Just read Carroll’s book, jump in, and pretend they don’t exist.

    If you can’t handle the read for whatever reason and HAVE to get it from video and blog posts, what you’re looking for is now called a “minimalist” bullet journal. Even then, you’ve still got a decent chance they’re going to add distractions that will make it distracting and harder to sustain.
