Your Weekly Review

What is the Weekly Review?

Do you feel swamped with work? You do not know how to start a task or a projects and have the feeling you cannot get things done?
No matter how good you are organized, if you don’t stop every now and then to look at the “big picture”, you’re going to get overwhelmed.
If this is you, it is about time for you to sit down alone and start to learn how to make a weekly review
The thing with a weekly review is that it has to become a pattern. To help you get back on track check out the main benefits of a weekly review:

  • Assest your past week
  • Feel good with what you have achieved
  • Plan your week better with past experience
  • Update your actions and tick off the ones done
  • Destress
  • Achieve more

If you are motivated to achieve these benefits follow these five steps to plan your weekly review:

  • Set time every Sunday night
  • Check what has been done, and what is left to be done
  • Check your calendar
  • List your priorities
  • Set your goal for the week

According to David Allen : “The whirlwind of of activity is precisely what makes the Weekly Review so valuable. It builds in some capturing, reevaluation, and reprocessing time to keep you in balance.
How to apply this with Beesy :

  • Set an alarm on your smartphone.
  • Go over your past and future notes and check what is the most important for you.
  • Look at your Dashboard, count the number of meetings so you can set your priorities.
  • In you dashboard select Monday and see what you have to do for the week in your note
  • Set dates for the most important things first and prostpone the rest.
