                Tired of rewriting the same week?

                In Week Plan unfinished tasks roll over on their own, repeating tasks come back every week, and your priorities stay in front of you on every device.

                What Time Blocking Is, in One Paragraph

                Time blocking means deciding in advance what each part of your day is for, instead of working down a to-do list and hoping the important things fit. You give a task a slot on the page — "9 to 11, write the proposal" — and when that hour arrives, the decision about what to work on has already been made.

                This template lays the week out hour by hour, from 7 AM to 6 PM, with all seven days side by side. That view is the point: you can see immediately when a day is over-booked, where the long uninterrupted stretches are, and whether your priorities for the week actually got any of your best hours.

                • Twelve hourly rows per day, 7 AM to 6 PM
                • Seven days side by side — Monday or Sunday start
                • Three weekly priorities to block time for first
                • An overflow box for shallow work that did not get a block

                How to Fill In a Time Blocking Template

                Start with what is fixed: meetings, school runs, appointments. Then place your priorities for the week into the best hours you have left — for most people that means mornings. Write one block across several rows by repeating a short label, or simply write it in the first hour and leave the rest of the block empty.

                Leave gaps. A week blocked edge to edge fails at the first interruption, so keep an hour a day unassigned and put small, shallow tasks in the overflow box rather than giving each one a slot. When the plan slips — and it will — re-block the rest of the day rather than abandoning it.

                Print the finished week and keep it in view, or print the blank template and block by hand each evening.

                Frequently Asked Questions

                Everything you need to know about using this tool effectively.

                Block only two or three things on the first week: your fixed commitments and one block a day for your most important work. Once that holds, add more. Trying to schedule every hour from day one is the most common reason people give up on the method.
