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.
