Daily scratch stays out of the notebook these days. Long meetings, quarter planning workshops, even a single day of time blocking, all go on separate paper, stapled back in later or just thrown out.
Too much to-do turns a notebook into a reminder app instead of a journal, and there’s rarely anything in a time block worth reviewing later, the point was getting it done.
Cheap writing blocks or A4 notepads handle this kind of quick writing, nothing precious about them.
