How I Plan My Week in Under 30 Minutes
A simple, low-pressure weekly planning routine using a Notion template that takes the stress out of your Sunday.
I used to spend two hours every Sunday planning my week. Spreadsheets, notebooks, apps — nothing stuck. Then I built a system that takes under 30 minutes, and it changed everything.
The trick? A single Notion template that combines my to-dos, appointments, and priorities in one place. No more switching between tabs. Just a clean weekly view where I drag tasks into days and add a few notes.
Here’s my exact routine: Friday afternoon, I review my upcoming week. I block out non-negotiables (work, appointments) and then add 3-5 priority tasks. The rest is flexible. When something changes, I just drag and drop.
This routine saves me at least 2 hours per week. More importantly, it keeps me calm. No more Sunday scaries — just a clear plan that’s easy to adjust. Give it a try with my free weekly planner template.
