I use bullet journals, and I have one for work. It’s not exactly the same - instead of my thought process it’s mostly what tasks I’m working on each day, and meeting notes. It helps me to organize what I what to get done so I don’t have to keep thinking about what I want to get done. It also helps me to get an idea of where my time went, and is a good place to write down anything I want to refer back to. Like when a coworker trained me on a deploy procedure I took notes, and added a line for that page number to my index.
I use a super lightweight bullet journal. I don’t bother with the indexing or future logs or whatever; just a daily journal of whatever I feel is worth writing down, usually timestamped.
All the overhead of the extra features doesn’t feel like they’re worth the effort for me.
That’s almost what I do with my work journal too. Daily logs with an index. A page for deferred tasks. A page here or there for tracking things that need to be done for a given project. I find the index helpful even if I only occasionally put an entry there.
For my personal journal daily logs are the core feature for sure. But I also get a lot of value from a future log, and a page for the current month with a list of events, and scheduled tasks.
