My Weekly Review process

Part of ยง My productivity system.

How I stay current with my GTD system, aligned to my week rhythm.

The rhythm

Day Review Purpose
Monday Get Clear + Buffer Full weekly review, heaviest day
Wednesday Creator Creator Day check-in
Friday Get Clear + Personal Day off, personal focus
Last Friday Get Creative Monthly strategic review

Why this structure

  • Single project (โšก GTD) โ€” review is a process, not an area
  • Monday carries the weight โ€” full Get Clear + all housekeeping + Buffer area
  • Wednesday and Friday are lighter โ€” just area-specific project/action reviews
  • Side Hustle is monthly โ€” not actively working it, so weekly creates guilt without value

The phases

  1. Get Clear โ€” Process all inboxes (Mon + Fri)
  2. Get Current โ€” Review projects and next actions for each area
  3. Get Creative โ€” Someday review, ideas, strategic thinking (monthly)
