Weekly review: see your week and decide the next one
Once a week, stop for ten minutes: read what you wrote, look at what you finished and decide what carries over. Your diary and your planner are in the same place, so reviewing does not mean opening five tools.
Read your week
Open the days of the week and read what you wrote. Tags and stars help: a #tag shows every day where a subject appears, and favorite days gather the ones worth rereading.
See what you finished
The statistics show the tasks you finished, your completion rate and your streaks. You see in numbers how the week went.
Decide the next week
What is still pending you drag to another day. What no longer matters, you delete. The next week gets its tasks, with a day and a time.
A review that comes back by itself
Create “Weekly review” as a recurring task every Sunday, with a time and a duration, and it shows up in your agenda without you having to remember it.
A weekly review, with the idazery method
Write, look, decide, do: ten minutes at the end of the week.
Write
A few lines about the week: what went well, what dragged and what is still on your mind.
Look
You go through the days, the tasks you finished and the ones still pending, and On this day shows you what you wrote on the same date in earlier years.
Decide
You choose what carries over, what you drop and what matters most next week.
Do
You create next week's tasks with a day, a time and a duration, and you close the review with one sentence.
