The ten-minute weekly review
A simple Friday review that decides your next week — with three questions.
A review does not need ceremony. Ten minutes on Friday afternoon is enough if you always ask the same three questions.
The three questions
- What did I finish, and did it pay into my monthly goal?
- What slipped, and did it actually matter?
- What is the one thing that counts next week?
Why it works
The review separates activity from progress. Many weeks feel full and move nothing. Only the comparison with your monthly goal shows it.
Then delete without guilt. Removing a goal that no longer fits is progress, not failure.
