I tried keeping a journal (to track what I did each day...otherwise it felt like the days were just blending together) but kept failing over and over because I just couldn't get into the habit.

For people who have the same issue, I came up with https://www.60secondseveryday.com

It's the fastest way of daily journaling - you make a 60 second phone call every night to answer the question "What do you want to remember about today?". From there, it gets transcribed, archived, and it's all searchable as well.

Disclaimer: I came up with the service after having a need for it myself

The general idea sounds good to me (just spend 60 seconds on it, and no more).

But I wouldn't use it on principle because a journal is private, and having it handled by a third-party doesn't sound like a good idea at all. Especially when you explicitly state that it is transcribed, archived, and searchable.

Why would it being transcribed and searchable mean it's not private? Everything is automated and encrypted along the way, so I won't be able to look at it even if I wanted to.

I realize that privacy is an important concern which is why I've taken it extremely seriously. So rest assured, this journal is private.
