Funny, I use a lot of technology products to systematically track what I do in a structured way: Foursquare, Calendars, Asana, Evernote, Fitbit, etc.

I use a physical journal for exactly the opposite reason. It's my non-systematic way of thinking. What I write in it is unstructured and very personal. I like it because it's what I do, think about, and reflect on when I'm not thinking about the boundaries of the system I'm recording something in.
