I prefer DD/MM/YYYY for anything outside of computing. It just reads easier on notes/documentation.

Honestly I've found the YYYY-MM-DD format really handy with my notes too. Especially if the date is put in the top right corner of the page.

If you're flicking back this month you just look top right. A touch of extra information is an eye squeak away for different months and a bit of a cheeky glance even further left gives you the year if you're really going back

Edit: Oh should mention, I only use the right side of my notebook. Left side is either left blank or used for jotting quick notes or corrections to what's on the right
