Using a Bullet Journal Weekly spread is essential. These spreads can be customized, tweaked, and made into exactly what you need to get through your week.
As a newbie, I highly recommend sticking with a minimalist spread as it will provide you everything you need while you get into the habit of using it. If you have been bullet journaling for a while a more complex weekly spread may be exactly what you need to save pages and provide you with a more productive journal.
In looking for a weekly spread to better help me track all of my plans, I decided to show you some of my favorites. I plan on trying each of these out and eventually, I will create a weekly planner that suits me by picking the best parts of all of these.
Weekly spreads are an essential part of the bullet journal process, especially when trying to use it as a planner and life tracker. You can keep track of upcoming events, schedule your days, and leave notes about the day for yourself.
Additionally, if you are a work at home parent like me the bullet journal weekly spreads help you to plan and keep a schedule. This is important for several reasons. You are more productive and you know when to stop working. Stopping work when you work from home is a difficult task in itself.

Recommended ProductsFrom time to time the Scribbles that Matter Journal is sold out on Amazon. When this happens third party sellers will try to sell the journal for an insane amount of money. DO NOT BUY THAT! Scribbles that Matter should be back in stock soon. My second favorite journal is the Essentials Dot Matrix, though I warn you the pages on this one are thinner and bleeding and shadows show up on opposite sides. However, it's a decent cheap journal if you are in a pinch and just want to get started.
