I do and have since about 1986/1987.
I don't share it with anyone; it's not something that would benefit anyone but me, but I write almost daily.
I started it because the company I worked for was buying other companies and folding them into the one I was running. I needed to keep up and would write in a notebook every day as to what I needed to do and why I needed to do it.
I loved the job, loved those that I worked for, and I had to in order to keep up. It was always uphill for me then,
The notebooks, which I still have, and look at now and then, show I was part of creating something pretty cool.
I still do it now, but on my laptop as opposed to a spiral notebook, and the majority of what I write is personal stuff. I do write business stuff in there but I have a different place where I write that to try to do my best for my job here. I no longer market on the internet so that no longer is in play. I keep up with what is going on because it is interesting to me, but it's not about the money... it's about the knowledge.
It's cartagic in general, and my wife only learned about it this weekend as we discussed something she wants to do and the discussion came up about what I do when she asked me what I did because I stay up late at night,
Putting your thoughts down today, and reviewing them years from now, will help your personal growth, and it's free to do.
If you don't, I'd encourage you to do so. 200 words, 2,000 words, whatever works but 3 years from the time you start, you'll be glad you did.
