Swapped my weekly spread for a simple task list last month

I used to spend 2 hours every Sunday drawing out these elaborate weekly layouts with color coded sections and trackers. Then I missed a whole day because I was too busy setting up the next week. Now I just jot down 3 main tasks per day on a sticky note and it's way more effective for me. Has anyone else found a simpler method that actually works better?

okay so i tried the fancy weekly layout thing once and it was a disaster. i spent more time decorating than actually doing stuff. now i just use a random scrap of paper and write down like 5 things max. if it doesnt get done it just sits there mocking me until i do it or throw it away. works way better because theres no pressure to make it pretty.

Wait, really? I always thought pretty planners were the only way, but you might be onto something.
