# Note Taking

Taking notes is an excellent tool to keep the clutter out of my mind. So far, I'm still struggling to implement a process that works for me.

In mid April 2020, I discovered [Roam Research](https://roamresearch.com/) as a powerful note taking tool. I try to create a daily journal page for every day in Roam where I keep as much notes as possible about my habits, todos and more or less random, noteworthy things.

I finish every day with a short review, answering a list of questions:

* Did I spend most of my day in a productive way?
* Did I spend money?
* Did I create something?
* Did I learn about anything?
* Am I annoyed or upset about anything?
* How would I rate this day?
