One of the key aspects of effective planning in the “May: Beautiful Bullet Journal” app is understanding the difference between the Day Log and the Week Log. The Day Log focuses on daily activities, tasks, and reflections, helping you manage your day-to-day responsibilities in detail. In contrast, the Week Log provides a broader overview, allowing you to see the big picture of your week at a glance. This distinction is crucial for balancing immediate tasks with longer-term goals and ensuring that nothing slips through the cracks.
