NOT CARRIED OUT A SATISFACTORY WEEKLY REVIEW, AS YET
THIS IS DUE TO A LARGE PROJECT WHICH IS CLOGGING UP
OR SHOULD I SAY MY INABILITY TO FILTER IT INTO THE SYSTEM

Not based near you (I'm in denmark) but saw you have put off the weekly review due to a big project..
A 2 hour review of a 40 hour week = 5% of your work week..

I think everyone that has ever done a full review will say its worth more than the time spend, even if no its 5%!
Try to fit it in your schedule you won't regret it.. :D

I live in Cambridge, UK. Weekly review is my weakness too. I guess I get overwhelmed just by thinking of how much I've to think about when I do the weekly review.

Any suggestions/tips from Senior GTDers?
 
Thank you for your input ssksogaard.
I will attempt a full weekly review of what I have so far!
Previous attempts have found me tapering off into non-review type actions
So determined to this time around
- I shall comment how I got on.

I too believe distance aught not be a factor

Part of my problem is motivation to face it.
I wonder if you’re up for being my wkly review “gym partner” ?


I aim to stick to 10 mins per section (hardly enough time)
Getting a feel for the process > turning it into a habit.


If your available anytime after 15:00hrs this Sunday 11th Nov?

Please get in touch


Many thanks all
 
Hey, I am based in London. If you ever come down here we can meet and share some ideas on GTD if you are up for it.

The way I do the weekly review at the moment is not on weekly basis but on demand. Like doing the laundry. When I have a big enough batch of clothes to wash, I wash them together. I do not do it too early because the washing machine will be empty and it is waste of resources, but if I wait for too long it will be a mess - no clothes to wear and will not fit them all in the machine for one washing. I treat clearing my inbasket and reorganizing my projects the same way. When I feel I have collected a decent amount to organize I simply put next actions like "Clear my inbox", "Update my projects folder", "Update my next actions folder" etc. Then I treat them like normal actions that I do whenever I am have the time. This seems to work for me better.

I hope it helps.

Stan.
 
@Carlos Just saw your message. I have been out for most of the weekend and I won't be doing the Weekly Review now. Maybe I will just scan through all the contexts to get current and that's about it.

@Stan It's a good idea for a meetup if I'm around LDN area.
