I like how Shaun Inman describes some of the benefits of journaling in "Lift Off. The Last Rocket Development Diary". He wrote, “By documenting your creative process regularly, you can identify patterns that make you appreciate the too infrequent peaks, help avoid the pits and hopefully make future creative climbs a little less daunting.”
There are things to learn from an accounting of history. A development journal is among the most personal of histories (not personal as in "private", but personal as in "relates to my daily life"). If you're not going to study your own history, one may ask why study any history at all?
