Shoutout to the girl at the coffee shop who tore apart my weekly spread

I was at a cafe filling out my weekly log last Tuesday and this girl next to me asked if she could look. She said "you're just rewriting the same tasks every day, you're not actually tracking anything" and oof she was right. I had been copying over "call dentist" and "pay bills" from Monday to Friday like a robot and not logging my actual habits or moods. Now I use a simple tracker column on the right side of my weekly spread for sleep and anxiety levels. Has anyone else gotten a random critique that actually helped?

Is it really that bad if rewriting tasks helps you actually remember to do them?

Read somewhere that most people treat their planners like to-do lists instead of actual journals and that totally hit home for me.
