Outline

Benefits

• Helps you establish your goals and purpose
  • Different intervals help with the different levels of goals and aspirations
    • ex) weekly review is for a project while yearly is for a shift in character and direction
  • Helps think about the things you need to do to achieve yoru
  • Acts as a reference for when you’re feeling lost
• Helps you stay organized
• Helps reflect and look for improvement for next week

Process

Setup

• Templates for each
  • Can use plugins like calendar to incorporate weekly reviews and periodic notes for monthly notes
  • I personally don’t mind spending the extra few seconds to create and import the template manually though

Weekly

Facts

• Look at my progress throughout the week to note my notable and moderate impact tasks
• Key metrics like hours spent, unfinished task completion ratio, etc

Reflection

• Assess the different aspects of the week and judge my progress and see if I stayed on track
  • Section for productivity and breaks
• An overall assessment of the week
• The things that went well that propelled my progress or went well
• The things that hindered my progress or did not go well
• Any comments or insight after reflecting on the week

Future plan

• Any general adjustments/improvements for the upcoming week
  • ex) Stick to schedule more, add more time in breaks, check emails less
• Notes for the categories and projects you want to work on this next week
  • Descending order, time allotment
  • Specific tasks I know how to do
    • If I’m lost, I can just refer to my weekly review
    • Have a necessary list and an additional list that isn’t urgent
    • Also plan breaks so I don’t mindlessly do things

Monthly

• Second level
• More focus on long-term goals
• Focus more on your processes
• Notable accomplishments were noted in weekly reviews, so I decided to just list one personal and one career milestone
• Our efforts are futile without learning from them, so I also have a key lesson

Long Term Progress

• To focus on larger projects and areas, I try to think of 3 personal and 3 career goals to work towards
  • Kind of like the OKR framework but with an additional point of considering why I’m doing something
    • Objective
    • Initiatives
    • Why

Annual

• You can do a lot in a year, so this is where lifestyle changes can be planned
• I haven’t tried writing an annual review yet, but I’m planning on doing so once I need to truly ponder my life goals and vision

Reflection

• Planning goals for a whole year is quite abstract and challenging, but looking at some of the key milestones and achievements throughout the months can provide some inspiration
  • 5-10 things

Planning

• Think of a theme to help come up with goals
• Think of 3-5 goals for the different categories in your life
  • We tend to fall short on our short-term goals but tend to underestimate our year-long capabilities, so dream big!
  • A well-balanced life is important

Conclusion

• I have been using weekly reviews for a few months now and they have been super useful for reflecting on and improving my productivity
• I tend to stray away from my purpose, so hopefully having monthly and yearly reviews help remind me to stay on track and update my vision
