Weekly Planning Routine in my Franklin Planner

3 min readMay 26, 2026

Let’s talk about how I plan for the week. To keep things simple, I will just be referring to how I currently plan in my Franklin Planner. I also have separate routines for my business planner as well as my Planner Perfect Travellers Notebook.

So again, as with my monthly planner reset, I probably do more in my routine since I also plan for content creation (and I’m filming what I plan, and vice versa). As an everyday lay person, planning out your life, you won’t follow all the steps I do in my YouTube videos. For that reason, I will outline the basic steps that I use here:

Organize before I begin:

  • Clean and tidy my desk space so I have a clear working area. Generally, I always do this the night before anyway.
  • I will get out all the stickers, washi and supplies I need prior to beginning my planning session. I want all the tools I need on hand, and I don’t want to waste time looking for things.
  • I have all my reference material on hand — whether that’s my goal planner, my future log, or my other planners.

Review The Previous Week:

  • This is a good habit to do to see where things can be improved upon, or even to see what needs to be moved forward from the previous week.
  • Any important information should be moved to the monthly or daily index page for easy referencing, or, you can also re-write that information in your reference section/planner.
