Sunday Week Review

(From Threads)

Step 1: Review Last Week (5 minutes)

- What worked? What didn't?

 - Which meetings were productive?

 - Which tasks moved the needle?

 - What drained your energy?

 - What created value?

Learn from last week before planning next week.

Step 2: Identify Your Top 3 Priorities (5 minutes)

Not your to-do list. Your PRIORITIES.

What 3 things, if accomplished this week, would make it a win? These are your non-negotiables. Everything else is secondary.

Step 3: Block Time for Priorities FIRST (10 minutes)

1. Open your calendar.

2. Block time for your top 3 priorities before anything else:

 → Deep work sessions

 → Strategic projects

 → Key conversations

If you don't schedule priorities, everyone else's priorities will fill your calendar.

Step 4: Prep for Key Meetings (5 minutes)

Look at your week's meetings. For each important one, consider:

→ What's the goal?

→ What do you need to prepare?

→ What outcome do you want?

5 minutes of prep beats 60 minutes of winging it.

Step 5: Identify Energy Drains and Minimize Them (3 minutes)

- What meetings could you decline?

- What emails could you batch-respond to?

- What tasks could you delegate or delete?

Protect your energy like you protect your time. They're equally valuable.

Step 6: Set One Boundary for the Week (2 minutes)

What will you NOT do this week to protect your effectiveness?

Examples:

→ No meetings before 9 AM

→ No email after 6 PM

→ No saying yes to non-priority requests

One boundary. Hold it.
