Ask HN: Personal timesheet?
Is anyone using personal timesheets to track eg how much time they spend on learning a new topic or time spent on a (side) project ?
What are your experiences and what tools do you use for this ?

Then I purchased a big vertical whiteboard and bunch of colored markers, writing down my to-dos and to-learns/ideas. Usually I try to do it monthly, but some tasks remain for longer than a month. I make many grids on it, and distribute client requests, my personal stuff, some random notes once in a while.
I tried to use some iOS paid apps but I realized I don't want to look at my phone more than I already do.
In the past I tried to use regular notepads, bought many kinds but I couldn't follow my notes anymore. So far my whiteboard was my best friend because it is huge, whenever I turn my head I see it. But for time tracking, I have no clue. Get a whiteboard, no matter what you do, you will use it.
