        This week I noticed a colleague of mine doing some journaling during
        his work. I asked him to take a look at it, how he keeps his notes
        and I was amazed. He wrote down what seemed to be every single idea
        or question he had, then his investigations to validate the idea or
        answer the question. In the end, he had a document which clearly
        exposed his train of thought and all of the things he learned along
        the way.
       
        I wish I could do the same, but it feels so unnatural. It feels like
        it would break my flow, having to stop and take some notes. I asked
        him how he developed the skill and muscle memory, but he could not
        remember.
       
        How about you? Do you keep work logs or journals? How detailed or
        granular are they? How did you develop and maintain the habit of
        keeping them?
