I have something similar, with the folder syncing to google drive, you could encrypt if you want to before hand but I never got to it, I separate one file per month.
alias journal="vim ~/workspace/google-drive/journal/$(date "+%Y-%m")"
Then in vim I have this mapping, by pressing F2 it opens a new line at the end of the file so you can just start typing.
I add goals to the beggining of the week with the F3 map.
Monday -> Press F3 -> like a bujo, review what is still relevant and move to next week or drop it.
Week 10 goals:
- [ ] check connectivity with service x, splunk and service Y, from new environment
- [ ] xxxx
Then whenever I will change context in my mind I just go back to the open buffer and press F2.
I normally start my day looking at what happened over the other remote branches, and update my weekly goals task list

- emails / slack

- support x person
Thursday, 2020-07-09 10:00:00
- dog break

- HN
Then at then end of the year I create a folder `archive/201X/` and move all the files under it.
I had a calendar event reminding me to review what happened over the week on Friday afternoon, but that is just lying to myself. I got to do once or twice over the last couple of years, that is something I need to improve on which is the whole point of article, review it while it is fresh and learn from it.
