My weekly spread fell apart by Tuesday, and it weirdly fixed my whole system

I spent Sunday night building a fancy color-coded weekly spread with 3 different trackers and thought I was set. By Tuesday lunch I had already skipped half the boxes and just scribbled 'laundry' across two random days out of frustration. Do you guys stick with a plan that crashes midweek, or do you immediately switch to something looser like a simple list?

Fancy color-coded weekly spread with 3 different trackers" is the part that gets me. You didn't have a system, you had a decorating project. The spread didn't fail, it just showed you what you actually needed, which is a box for laundry and maybe two other things. Looser is better. I stopped doing weekly spreads years ago and went straight to a scrap of paper with three lines. Tuesday is when real life shows up, and real life doesn't care about your color legend.
