My habit tracker fell apart after just 3 days

I started a new habit tracker in my bullet journal on Monday, and by Wednesday the whole thing was a mess. I made the boxes too small and my pen bled through half the page. Had to rip out that spread and start over with a simpler design. Has anyone else had to scrap a layout mid-month and start fresh?

Oh man, @wilson.joseph maybe the real problem wasn't the layout but the pen you chose.

Depends on the brand honestly. Some pens are so wet they bleed through anything, others are so dry they skip and leave ghost lines. I've had good luck with Pilot G2 pens for most trackers, they are smooth without being a mess. If you are using a thin paper layout, a ballpoint might be safer than a gel pen. Just test the pen on a corner before you commit to a whole page.
