Tips for writing a great one‑line journal entry
One-line journaling is about capturing what matters in a single sentence. Here's how to make each daily log entry count:
- Capture one decision, one insight, or one win — focus on what stood out today
- Prefer specifics over generalities — "Met Sarah for coffee" beats "Had a good day"

- Keep it under 120 characters — the constraint keeps your one-line journaling focused and fast
