Rant: I gave up on weekly spreads after 6 months and my journal actually got better

I was spending 2 hours every Sunday setting up a perfect weekly layout that I'd ignore by Wednesday, so I switched to a simple running task list and now I actually finish things, but does anyone have a good system for tracking appointments without a weekly calendar?

You gave up on weekly spreads because you were overcomplicating it. Why not just try a simpler weekly layout instead of ditching the whole thing? A basic calendar box takes two minutes to draw.

My three-column list saved my weekly planning.

Three hundred and twelve days into my bullet journal and I finally realized drawing boxes was wasting time I could spend actually planning. Now I just write the days in a vertical list and it works way better for me.
