Suggested fields

Start with these columns.

Use only the fields that help you make a clearer record.

DateDateOne entry per day. Gaps are information too, so do not backfill them.

MoodDropdownA short consistent scale beats a paragraph. You are looking for patterns across months.

HighlightTextThe one thing worth remembering. Keeping it to one makes the entry possible on a bad day.

LearnedLong textSomething you did not know this morning. Often the most useful field to read back.

TagsDropdownRecurring themes — work, sleep, people — so you can read one thread across a year.

ReferenceTextA photo or link tied to the day, when the entry needs an anchor.

Date addedDateWhen you wrote it. Entries written days later read differently, and it helps to know.

NotesLong textAnything that does not fit the other fields. Keep it optional or the habit dies.
