My Drafts + Day One journaling workflow

Sparky and Stephen's deep dive into journaling on the Mac Power Users podcast episode 762: got me thinking about how I approach this practice. So I thought I would chime in with how I journal.

Here's my workflow:

• Quick capture with Drafts: I use Drafts to write my text entries, it's perfect for capturing fleeting thoughts or brain dumps.
• Monthly organization: My Drafts Monthly Journal keeps everything neatly organized, month by month.
• End-of-month migration: At the month's end, I seamlessly share the entire journal with Day One, preserving my reflections for posterity.
• Day One: I use Day One to add images to my journal. I use it on my iPhone to take photos or import them from my camera roll.
• Daily dose of nostalgia: Day One's “On This Day” feature is my daily dose of happy memories and self-reflection.
