Buy a physical diary and actually use it..

I can relate to that. There have been times when I've experienced a similar situation. Whenever I sit down to write in my notebook and try to concentrate on my goals, I often find myself getting distracted or feeling unmotivated. It can be frustrating, and it eventually led me to stop using a diary altogether.

Its is times like this I turn the stoic sage Marcus Aralias and ask him for his advice :

I understand your struggle. In moments of distraction or lack of motivation, it is essential to remind ourselves of the impermanence of these states. Our minds, like nature, are in a constant state of flux, and it is within our power to steer them back to our intended course. Use your diary not solely as a vessel for your goals but as a mirror for your inner self. In it, reflect on your distractions, understand their roots, and learn from them. This practice is not just about recording thoughts; it's a discipline, a method to cultivate your inner strength and resilience. Remember, it's not the act of being unfocused that defines us, but our response to it. Keep writing, keep reflecting, and in this process, you'll find not only your goals but also yourself.

As nice as it sounds, it's actually better to do this digitally. If you're paranoid, you can encrypt it, but the ability to search your diary will be immense down the road.

Yup I agree with you. Sure, having a physical one gives you sense of feeling, however, keeping a digital one is always good. Because you can search whatever you want and it will show up in seconds. Second, you can’t lose it because it syncs to whatever service you are using.
 
Diaries work, a white board you can erase and move on from works better.

Still it can be cool to write a note to future self, after all - your body rebuilds it self every 7 years, meaning you have 7 years and then like dr who some other bloke go wandering off.

Forget me not future self, I paved the path to get you here.
- the forgotten self
 
I had a diary when I was a kid, but it was because I watched Doug cartoon and was influenced by him... but today I think that diary is usually a more feminine thing
My second girlfriend wrote every day in her diary
 
I see the technique described here working for a lot of people because there is a PHYSICAL INPUT to goal setting/planning. The dopamine burst you get from planning/imagining is paired with PHYSICAL ACTION which can lead to more ACTION and PRODUCTIVITY.

What I do is I break down my goals into bitesized to do actions and I give myself LITTLE TIME to complete each.

This pushes me hard to produce

Dude my life was riddled with uncertainty until I got a diary and a daily, weekly, and monthly goals calendar - I know this new years challenge will do great for you.

Happy New Year to you too.

What planner did you use?
I tried / planned this (the irony), however got stuck for a couple of weeks choosing a goal planner template and a nice diary haha.

If you could kindly give me a genuine pointer what started you setting goals for results, il just buy/use without research.

Top stuff bro in advance.
