My time log is pretty simple. I have a schedule that I prepare the night before (all tasks allocated to the exact minute---no rounding), and it covers my complete daily routine. Example:

4:30 a.m. - 5:00 a.m. Wake up, get out of bed, turn off alarm clock, get a Red Bull from the fridge, pick up your Bible and read.
5:00 a.m. - 5:10 a.m. Get a towel and take a shower.

Now, when I log my time, I don't write all of that, because I already did the night before! If I stray from my routine, I obviously put that down, but otherwise I just note the time and and number of the task (everything from 4:30 - 5 is #1, 5:00 - 5:10 is #2, etc.).

What's great about the schedule/log is that it forces me to plan ahead. If I take the time to prepare, then great! I just have to write some numbers! But if I don't, I regret it pretty fast.

Hope that helps!
