Found out my weekly spread was wasting 30 minutes every Sunday

Thirty minutes is a lot of time to spend on a weekly spread. Have you tried simplifying it down to just three or four key things you need to track? Sometimes less is really more with these planners.

I saw this study once that said the average person spends like 4 hours a month just looking at their planner or calendar without actually doing anything with it. That's almost a whole workday lost to staring at pages. So 30 minutes every Sunday is actually pretty standard but you're smart to question it. I switched to a simple bullet journal method I heard about on a podcast, basically just a list of tasks for the week with no fancy layouts or color coding. It cut my Sunday planning time down to about 10 minutes once I got used to it.
