What are daily notes?
Daily notes are your regular daily updates that are linked under a date in your calendar. They're a space where you can reflect on the day, keep a record of your work, and track your habits. Keeping consistent with writing daily notes will over time let you build your own knowledge hub that can inform your decisions, and help you optimize your workflow.
