Weekly review

A weekly review is one of the four kinds of reviews necessary to maintain a functional life management system. It is a critical habit to maintain the system.

Because weekly habits are more difficult to build, establishing and maintaining a weekly review habit can be difficult. Nevertheless, when properly designed, a weekly review can free up your mind and spur you to take action (a life management system should free your mind; build a life management system that helps you take intentional action). A good weekly review should be fast and lightly done for about 15-30 minutes. For this to happen, the reviewer needs to resist the urge to actually do a task and focus on processing open loops.

Here is my weekly review routine.
