Intent is to remember years later what specific tasks I had, even if I’ve left the company and no longer have access to my files. It’s been very useful during interviews when asked about details of what I did, and in conversation with friends who want to know what my day to day is like. I’ve learned that this journal has to be kept in a personal space so that I won’t lose access to it during layoffs, for example. Do you have any similar habits? What are your policies?

I do the same thing - it’s a brag book. I make sure nothing proprietary goes into it but it always stays at home. Mostly, I keep it because I use it as a source of information when I update my resume’ every few months.
