Using the "68 Worksheets" Approach to Getting Things Done
The Weekly Review has the power to heal your mind and let you get your things done. Block out some time in your schedule and create a plan for managing all of the pieces of your weekly review:The Weekly Review
This Review Checklist is designed to keep your Projects and Next Actions from slipping through the cracks in your memory.
- Review the Tickler File ~ Look at all of the folders/pages from the past week, making sure that everything was done. Re-Tickle anything that didn't get done, if appropriate. Jot down any ideas that occur to you while reviewing and put them in the In-Box.
- Process the In-Box ~ I use this time to pay bills, update my checkbook, file receipts and papers and notes, clean out my wallet, and other little "housekeeping" chores. After the in-box has been emptied, I review and clean up the hPDA.
- Calendar Review ~ Simply reviewing the time-specific actions and information from the past week. Does any of it need to get archived for possible retrieval? Then I synchronize my diary with G-Cal, focusing on the full month ahead. Finally, in the spirit of efficiency, I process any emails that are sitting in the inbox.
- Project Review ~ First I close and archive any completed Projects, prepared to jot down any ideas that occur to me as I do this. Next, I update current and forthcoming Projects on the @Project List by asking myself if the Project is still worthwhile. I have saved a great deal of time by letting go of projects that had turned away from the original goal, or if the goal of the project had shifted. While reviewing each Project, I can check the status of Next Actions that are in @Waiting For, and tickle or calendar a contact action for the person responsible for getting back to me. (Do not actually email them now, the purpose of this exercise is review, not do)
- Next Action Review ~ Clean up the @Next Action list with the focus on "is the action/project still worthwhile" and "what is being waited on. This is the third time the @Next Action list has been
- Review the Someday/Maybe list ~ Has the Review brought any ideas to the front of your mind that need to be logged here?
- Review Support Files ~ Scan through these files and archives for inspiration.
- Brainstorm Creative Ideas~ What would your current projects look like from beyond the completion date? Envision wild success.
Zen Habits
Achieving goals through everyday habits.
"This blog is really about setting and achieving goals, and the numerous goals that I want to achieve. But I believe that goals - especially ones that are worth reaching - are ultimately achieved through the building of good habits."
Leo focuses on one topic per day, featuring Getting Things Done, Financial tips, Simplifying your life, Happiness, Health and Family. He has also compiled a Massive GTD Resource Page.

My goal is to share the valuable lessons that I learn so that others who are experiencing the same struggles may benefit from what I've discovered, from the mundane to the profound. The litmus test is that the information I share be USEFUL, will MAKE YOU THINK about your life in a new way that opens doors for you, or that will be INTERESTING.

Cartoons Drawn on the Backs of Business Cards
My inspiration for creating my own global microbrand, Hugh's blog is a case study in excellence with wit, humor, and savvy. This blog is not about GTD, but it is about branding yourself, marketing a product, and developing your business (on- or off-line). Not for the squeamish, Hugh is to-the-point and uses adult language.
