I keep mine somewhat as a journal, and I have moved everything I can that is on paper into the planner/journal - like bill payments, and stuff I would have written on sticky notes (sometimes I just tape the sticky notes in there), and passwords, and a list of all my medications, and my check register, and notes about what I want to cover in planned phone calls, and a list of all the Christmas gifts I have bought each year, and my important addresses, and ideas for crafty projects, and doctor's appointments, etc. I still use my phone electronic calendar for appointments, too.

It has really helped with my memory problems. It has also cut down drastically on the amount of paper that I have to keep up with.
I use a plain old five subject notebook much the same way. Each page is a new list-shopping, To-Do, important dates coming up, notes for phone calls, and so on. I also break down big goals into little steps. It's not "daily" as much as a series of lists. I love not carrying around everything in my memory-addled brain. And it's very satisfying to check off items .

That's a brilliant idea. I'm going to start using this one.
