Here is my exact SYSTEM for journaling (Tasks, Goals and Reflections)

[NIK4658]

Since I started self improvement, one of the things I've been doing continuously every single day is journaling.
I use it both to organize my tasks on a weekly and daily level and for daily reflections to check that I am always in the right direction.

Every year I do the 1/5/10 Planasy, then I visualize my yearly goals every single week and set weekly tasks.
Then, every single day, I set some daily tasks so I can complete my weekly tasks on time.

Thanks to this SYSTEM I also write down reflections on the day, keep track of my habits, express gratitude and many other things.

I have been using this SYSTEM every single day for almost two years and have basically never missed a day.
Without this setup, I think I would be pretty lost, especially with my tasks.

I leverage Obsidian and some plugins that Automatically create a new note every day based on a template I've built.
For the Weekly part, I use a different template also created by me.
I just "complete" the template very easily and that's it, I just answer a few questions very truthfully.

Since this habit is very powerful for me, I wanted to just give this templates to you guys hoping that someone could benefit from them.
(Some things have been changed in this post since it's basically just code, which I "hand-compiled" to improve readability. I also added some comments (#Comment) to explain the sections)
I'll start with the Daily Journal template first, then in the next post I'll add the weekly template.

I get it, it might seem a little strange to see all the "?"s, but when you actually use obsidian, it's another thing, trust me.
I hope you like it!
