Record keeping, Do you do it?

[pennyfarmer]

I was wondering to what extent some people keep records of their finds? What valuable lessons might be gleaned from this information? Does it improve your finds or help to keep you motivated?

I am going to start to track my coin finds with a pocket log book and and excel spread sheet that I have been working on. I have never bothered to record any of my finds so when I found something good it tended to get tossed in a pile of stuff or in the safe.

I was hoping to get some tips on what to look for and what things I should include in my spreadsheet.

No. I don"t keep any type of records for anything I find. Sounds too much like work.
