Important tip if you want to be consistent with keeping a bullet journal daily spread
Because you’ll be creating a page a day, don’t overwhelm yourself with too much going on in your page. You may have the motivation the first few days you do it, but it’ll get old real quick if you try to keep up with elaborate spreads.
Doesn’t mean you can’t go all out once in a while, but try to stick to simple for the most part, okay?

Time ladder bullet journal daily spread
Another simple bullet journal layout is a time ladder. Make a column with the hours you’re awake, and write tasks during the appropriate time frame. If you like the black, sleek lines, use different patterns in the hour block to designate the type of activity.
For example, use vertical stripes for mealtimes, a plaid design for me time, etc. (via @journal_junkies)
