Lola didn’t wake up thinking, today I will be productive .
She woke up thinking:
Why are there so many meetings.
And then, more importantly:
Why do they all feel urgent.
This is usually the point where Lola would open her Notes app, write something vague like “work stuff”, close it immediately, and go make a coffee instead. But this time, she opened jot — the same place she journals, vents, and keeps her secret thoughts when her brain won’t switch off.
Not to write a long diary entry.
Not to emotionally unpack anything (yet...).
Just to get things
out of her head and onto the page
.
Inside her jot diary, Lola drops a new task straight in. She titles it exactly how it feels:
so many meetings blah blah blah.
No forced professionalism. No pretending this is a “strategic alignment session”. Just honesty — the same kind she uses when she’s journaling properly.
She adds a due date. Sets the priority to High , because… yeah. It is. And suddenly the thing that was bouncing around her head is now sitting neatly inside her journal, instead of interrupting every other thought.
That’s the quiet magic of jot Tasks.
They don’t live
outside
your diary.
They live right alongside it.
Later, Lola checks back in. Some tasks are still waiting. Others? Surprisingly done.
Her New Year’s Eve planning task is already ticked off. The reflective prompts she journaled through earlier in the week — the ones about confidence and teamwork — are sitting there too, crossed out and oddly satisfying.
They didn’t disappear once the feelings passed. They became part of her diary history. A soft record of things she thought about, worked through, and actually finished.
There’s something grounding about that.
A journal that doesn’t just hold your thoughts, but shows you what you’ve carried — and what you’ve already put down.
What Lola likes most is that Tasks don’t turn her journal into a scary productivity app.
They don’t demand colour-coded systems or morning routines. They simply let moments from her diary become actionable when they need to — and stay reflective when they don’t.
Some entries stay as feelings.
Some diary thoughts turn into plans.
Some plans become tasks.
And some tasks quietly move to Completed.
It just gives her journal more range.
Tasks in jot aren’t about hustle. They’re about helping your diary hold real life as it happens — meetings, emotions, plans, spirals and all — without letting any one of them take over.
For Lola, that means fewer mental tabs open at once.
A calmer journal.
And the comforting knowledge that if something matters, she can write it down — and actually come back to it.
Because sometimes, “so many meetings blah blah blah” is exactly what your diary needs to hear first.
