Daily review and planning the day ahead

I freelance a lot and work from home, so the days can start to blur together pretty quickly when I’m busy. I started doing a daily review every evening where, without looking at my calendar or email, I try to remember what I did that day and how I felt. Then I plan the next day. I’ve learned that if I don’t, I’ll wake up, grab a coffee, and immediately start working until I finish something, without really thinking about how I’m spending the day.
