Think before journaling, Journal before practicing, Practise before doing

I Think, therefore I am discovering data.
I Journal, therefore I am having the information.
I Practise, therefore I am developing my skill.
I Do, therefore I am becoming knowledgeable.
I Reflect, therefore I am wise.
-SoulChimes

There is no shortcut to wisdom but to practise and then apply the skill in your job. The more you do, the more you’ll learn by feedback. Having a clear goal will aid in planning and navigating the path. The below template which is used widely in software development can be used to get clarity on the task.

so that {benefit i gain} [WHY]

Testable criteria:
