That's funny, but I've actually heard that recommended professionally as a legitimate tactic.

Helps with remembering what you actually did that day because often i get so sidetracked it looks like i did nothing at all.

This is exactly why I started doing it lol. I was getting depressed on days where it felt like I was so busy and overwhelmed but I felt like I accomplished nothing.

Made a list to track what I was doing today - 4 hours.

Tried many but couldn't settle on a format for the list - list is unusable until resolved.

I do this especially at work. However lately I’ve stopped since late July, probably due to my depression getting worse. I still manage to get things done but my focus is out the window.

God that's too real.

Feeling unaccomplished because instead of getting things done you felt like you were just fending things off.

I felt like I wasn't getting enough done, so I started making reports on what I had worked on at the end of the day. That helped me realize that while I may not have "completed" a lot, I had made progress on a lot of things. It helped me realize that I was working a lot more than I thought.
