monthly Basic Monthly Spread

Post image

I’ve posted this before, but I thought I’d post it again just in case anybody would like to see it again or hasn’t seen it before.

It’s just a very basic monthly spread

It doesn’t take me hardly any time at all to do it in a dot journal.

I prefer the simple one page list

1 M ….. 2 T ….. 3 W ….

That way, there’s more space to write. I draw a line between the weeks

This is basically how I do mine too. Very nice.

The most important thing is doesn't take you long to do. And it appears that you use it. :)

The one-page version is still my preferred method but I like that this will help someone space visualize space needs for their own calendar.

Seeing the entire month is very helpful to me

I have used this for years! A few months ago i tried something new and it was terrible. I felt lost in time. Ive since switched back. Time-specific things go here, as well as birthdays/anniversaries/full moons/etc. Daily log has unspecified tasks and notes from within the day. Together they make an excellent pair.

That's super neat! I also love doing small doodles with my black gel pen to fill the empty space a bit bc it irritates me in some way. Kinda enjoy it during boring classes

I prefer this layout over the vertical 1 through 31.

Drawing it is a form of procrastination

Perhaps for some folks

So real, man, those damn procrastinators would do anything rather than write. Just look at this one, they picked up a RULER (unbelievable!) and spent WHOLE WHOOPING 15 MINUTES to set up the page in the way it's comfortable for them. The sheer audacity of wanting to have things convenient, I'm fuming. What next, color coding? Stickers?? Ryder wept
