This is such a valuable recommendation. I've been doing the same since 20+ years back. On and off I've been bad at it, but I always end up coming back and continuing.

I think of it as more of a daily diary though, I mix random notes of things I've done, thought of doing, or interesting links and/or command-lines I've found useful so I don't have to reinvent them as often in the future.

It has proven to be immensely useful for myself. Can highly recommend!

My way is mainly org-mode files through Emacs over the years. Now having switched primarily to VScode I use a simplified org-mode version to get similar feeling, and it works pretty well. Everything is mostly text anyways!
