I log. What I log is still evolving. But the main things I try to log are: issues that come up in practice that need more work, tempos I'm working a tune or a portion of a tune at, etc. (because I forget *everything*); things I stumble across in practice that I know I won't remember like an interesting fingering or progression; and breakthroughs/achievements/milestones (I get discouraged very easily, and it helps me to be able to look back and see that I really am progressing, whatever that voice in my head wants to tell me). Recording also helps with the latter.
