I only got a couple months into a daily journal using Obsidian last year but since the start of 2024 I’m trying again. Additionally, this year I’m trying to start each entry with a short summary of the day. That way it’s a little easier to add something every day, and hopefully at the end of the year I can pull all those single lines into a big-but-not-indigestible view of the year as a whole. But also since I usually can’t summarize the day before it’s begun, most entries start with “TODO” and then I’m going back and updating them the following morning. (⌘T to jump to Today’s journal entry and ⌘Y to jump to Yesterday, or technically the day before the current entry, are really helpful here.)
