Switched from a monthly layout to dailies only and it's working better

I used to think you had to have the whole month planned out or your bullet journal was useless... but after missing three appointments in January because my monthly spread just felt like clutter, I dropped it entirely. Now I just do one daily page at a time and actually check it every morning. Anyone else find that stripping things down helped more than adding more?

Right? @blake_bell29 probably draws stick figures while we're over here BUYING fancy pens.

Wait, do you find weeklies actually work for you long term? @blake_bell29 I tried weeklies but they still felt like too much future thinking. My problem was I'd fill in appointments I didn't have yet and then ignore the whole page. Dropping to just dailies forced me to only deal with what's directly in front of me. Less stress, more actual checking. The blank space doesn't mock me anymore, you know?

Ditched my monthly spreads completely. Just weeklies now.
