Workplace tip#4 – Journaling

Journaling every single day at work (best done at the end of the day), in addition to writing down events that happened, decisions taken, meetings with team, stakeholders, and bosses, tasks completed in a Google Docs document (personal) goes a long way in clearing out our memory and our ability to recall tasks, things, happenings easily – even after years! You could either write at the top of every hour, or once at the end of the day (if things to note are less).

You could also record your personal time off, the leaves you’ve taken along with the reasons, any WFH days, and other important stuff,

Just ensure to date your writings so you can revisit them later whenever you want. Here’s a sample snapshot to begin with:

I am a collector of stuff that is related to mind and brain - and more broadly, stuff that's about 'thinking'. This website is all about 'thinking', books on thinking, videos, podcast resources on thinking and thus you can safely play around 'thinkering' here.

Happy thinking! Don't forget to connect with me on Twitter.
