I watched the video on the Todoist channel and wanted to share my thoughts. I'm 50 years old and trying to teach myself how to plan. I have been an entrepreneur for 30 years, but planning has always been my weak point. The problem is that I don't like controlling things, which leads to my plans going off course without systematic adjustments. After downloading the weekly review template, I have been trying to analyze my plans from the previous week and more effectively create and adjust plans for the upcoming week. I still want to become more efficient, and staying consistent with planning is very important to me. Positive emotions add motivation on my path to developing this habit.

I'm not interested in Todoist Pro, because I have it already, so I wanted to say thanks to Naomi for her pleasant and helpful formatting style. I also appreciate how positive and life-affirming she is. The bloopers at the end were a particularly nice touch!

I'm one of those people who has a weekly review scheduled every week but when the time comes it feels so overwhelming I often skip it for later. I find it helps to use the review time for planning/scheduling new tasks and making sure the super urgent things are done rather than trying to completely clear my inbox in one go (never happens!). Then I tickle away at the less urgent tasks for a few mins each day.

@HaJoWa 2 месяца назад

I do the review on Friday morning. Then I have a clear head at the weekend because I know that the next week is planned.

@matthewderbyshire274 3 дня назад

I have been trying to figure out where best to fit mine in and this could really work - Thank you

@juliegibson1665 13 дней назад

I love Todosit! It has changed my life. I tell everyone about it. I love the Templates and came across this one while unemployed. I know it will be beneficial in my next job and I already know this is something I was searching for in my personal life. Love Love Love getting more organized. Thank you!

@BarryWallace68 4 месяца назад

I love the idea of a weekly review and need to start working that into my weekly routine. However, I find that it's too easy for me to skip it for this week, thinking that I'll do it later. Well, "later" never comes and my weekly review doesn't get done. That said, this was a very informative tutorial. Thanks so much for this video.

@Steveoaudioandstuff 4 месяца назад

I ❤ seeing these videos pop up in my feed, especially with the outtakes 😆. Yes I agree the weekly review is critical. One thing I would add which I've found to be critical is always begin the review with 'celebrate'. Really revel in what's gone well this week, what you've enjoyed and what you're grateful for. Not only does it mean you get off to a great start, but I think we don't do enough celebration in our working lives. I used to stick to GTD but now I have my own model, but the review is vital (and todoist of course!)

@elainewalsh9075 11 дней назад

I just started Todoist, and I’m very excited to start a weekly review. I like planning for work on Friday afternoons because it helps clear my mind before the weekend. Thanks for the great tips!

@spadonibruno 8 дней назад

I have read Allen's book and done some very helpful changes in my working behavior, but I never did a weekly review. I'm glad I found this video when I was exploring Todoist to see if it could help me organize better. Thank you Naomi, the video is very good. Now I 'm looking forward to trying it.

@ianreid8041 3 месяца назад

I retired last year and the weekly review was a key part of my work week on a Friday afternoon (no meetings, no appointments). Now I'm trying to work it into my "new life" to give each week a purpose and direction, not just let each day waste away. This video is a great reminder.

@R08er2 19 часов назад

I really enjoyed this video and the presentation. Deliberately organising my week is something I have been working on for a long time. This tool and this video is a useful prompt to continue to develop this into an enjoyable action and to make my week more productive. Thank you

@tschanineundlizza 4 месяца назад

I've been doing weekly reviews for a while but could never pinpoint why I liked them so much, but your quote at the end of the video opened my eyes! It's 52 chances for a fresh start in a year and the fresh starts are what gets me motivated 💪

@Momreen 4 месяца назад

Always love your videos. Great information here I found some things in your video to add to my weekly review to hopefully make them more consistent. Thank you!

@mariatuckey7968 4 месяца назад

Thanks Naomi. That was most encouraging. I do not currently do a weekly review but I do plan to start immediately. Great work. Loved the bloopers at the end too.

@bkdavis4928 4 месяца назад

Great video, thankyou! Loved the quote at the end and breaking down the weekly review.

@ejewell64 4 месяца назад

Thanks Naomi, I just added a weekly review task to my system this week, and now I'll go take a look at the template that you mentioned.

@Sasha-vq5ep 4 месяца назад

I started doing a weekly review after your newsletter that talked about it! I love it! I do it on a Friday afternoon. I've set a reoccurring task on my Todosit for every Friday and it's my favorite task to check off my list!

@ErnieMerrill 4 месяца назад

I have been slowly getting better at doing a review. I have recently committed to revamping my productivity process and incorporated the weekly review. I too have started doing my work review on Friday afternoons, and my personal reviews on Sunday mornings. Love this channel!

@davidpettitt4712 2 месяца назад

Thank you for bringing clarity to the weekly review use case. Great delivery too.

@myranaval938 2 месяца назад

Wow! That was amazing. Weekly review on another level. Thank you for this.

@teamneros7881 2 месяца назад

Excellent summary. Thank you!

@jmvvicente 4 месяца назад

I’ve been doing a weekly review for a few weeks and it’s been great to be honest. I use the template you mentioned and it helps a lot. Thanks for doing this videos!

@J3nL-s2j 9 дней назад

Been using this Tool for 4 years now, love it. love the templates. love the videos.

@TeessideTangler 4 месяца назад

Really clear and you’ve given me the incentive to try the template thank you.

@JBRose 4 месяца назад

Just watched this video in doing my Sunday catchup time right before I was planning on doing my weekly review! Your points on being creative and the Someday list are good.... I don't do enough of that. Anyway... enjoying the early morning quiet time with some coffee is absolutely the best way to get ready for the week.

@lewism9392 4 месяца назад

I recently started doing weekly reviews and this video has reminded me why I got started in the first place! I particularly love the tip to do the review at a similar time and place that you enjoy. Making it a routine becomes a breeze.

@DezBruce 4 месяца назад

Brilliant video as always. I use your weekly review template but your explanation has made it much easier to use. Thank you.

@mshayleycarr 3 месяца назад

I'm obsessed with the weekly review process! And have made it my own using todoist every single week.

@mikajm11 2 месяца назад

Thanks, a great reminder of the benefits of the weekly review. I earlier had kind of a weekly review routine, it was very useful. Have to start again, with these new ideas.

@meeluanistyn1644 4 месяца назад

Love your relaxed, conversational style. The addition of the beautiful Irish accent makes for an easy listening experience. I appreciate the importance of weekly reviews as, amongst other things, it ensures I can look at all my tasks with a critical eye and ask myself why I’ve given myself tasks for the previous week that were little more than things I didn’t want to forget for some future unspecified date. In other words, it helps me to ensure Todoist is “lean and tight” and that avoids me feeling overwhelmed by a massive list of “tasks” that aren’t all actionable right now or even in the near future. Great video, many thanks 👍

@DavidOldroyd 3 месяца назад

A great reminder. I have fallen into and out of the weekly review more times than I can count. Thank you for inspiring me to start again afresh.

@bosmanka 3 месяца назад

Great vid. It made me enthusiastic. I definitely will install the template. Thank you so much.

@kevinklimack 3 месяца назад

I am going to start doing this every week! Thank you so much.

@Shelley464 4 месяца назад

I started doing a weekly review because of Naomi's suggestion in previous emails, and I love it. In my "Projection" section, I added "Block time in your calendar to work off-site," and that has been a game changer. Making a plan to work away from the busyness of the office and focus on executing tasks has been 100% worth the entire review. Thanks for creating legitimately awesome content for your audience!

@jamesborzani301 4 месяца назад

This was a great video, I had downloaded the template awhile ago and just never used it. I will be using it now thanks to this video. Thank you Naomi.

@wesleym.dekker8523 4 месяца назад

I started with a weekly review some time ago. After reviewing and altering the checklist some times, I found some that is working for me. What I love most, is that is keeps me on track on "the bigger picture" and makes sure I have a game plan for each and every week.

@loveyourlily 4 месяца назад

I've been meaning to do a weekly review but have been overwhelmed by the thought. Seeing you talk through it and provide the template as a starting place is a great help!! Can't wait to do my first weekly review!

@lindaphotolikeness3123 16 дней назад

Have got to get a weekly review going now! So useful - love Todoist 🌟

@gkarkamel 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much for this inspiring video. Great work!

@karenbackhouse3739 3 месяца назад

Wow! It totally makes sense and she makes me feel like things are doable/manageable. I currently feel like I’m drowning in tasks (& therefore constantly ‘firefighting’). Definitely want to give this a go! Dedicating a set time to review/reset/clarify in my mind what my goals are for the week (AND long-term) will be way less time-consuming than the firefighting method! And much more productive/focussed - thank you so much for this vid - I’m now subscribed 😊

@Victoria-zm4cz 25 дней назад

Thank you, your weekly review video was super helpful.

@rosmarshall 24 дня назад

I don’t do a weekly review but plan to incorporate it with a quarterly via progress towards long term goals. We have tried so many programs and none have stuck perhaps todoist will be it. Greatly appreciate the GTD template! ❤

@athomasvideo 4 месяца назад

Great video! This was definitely inspiring to implement a more structured weekly review. Thanks for the template!

@CarlaTanz-df2qe 2 месяца назад

@jasonshone1510 4 месяца назад

Great video this is somthing I will start to do from now on, Thank you

@RickyDosSantos-sc6jt 4 месяца назад

Thank you for the GREAT overview!! I found myself ticking all the boxes in the "Who should do a weekly review"... yet I have never done a weekly review. I will definitely be giving this a try... I have just added the weekly review template to my Todoist!! 😃

@lucilafigueiras576 4 месяца назад

Thank you so much, you inspired me and totally convinced me!

@JaimeEscalante-eo1wo 2 месяца назад

Hello Naomi and thank you for your video; I recently started to learn more about GTD and I am very excited about getting more organized in my life. Your suggested set up in Todoist and vision is inspiring me to start doing the weekly review. Thank you again and have a lovely day!

@samanthathomasonduncan9622 4 месяца назад

LOVE the template. Thanks so much! I'm sort of doing this already, but this will help me hone the process and really commit to it.

@jodiecesca8210 4 месяца назад

This sounds so practical as I seem to read and plan a lot but not always action my plan, so a review would come in very handy! thanks heaps

@Rupa-nb5uf 2 месяца назад

Never done weekly review so much methodically . Appreciate the help

@TheEthanCouch 2 месяца назад

Trying this now! Thank you

@KatieSchneider 4 месяца назад

I appreciate the moment to sit down and remind myself of what is happening--what needs to be sorted, and what did I miss in the previous week. Sometimes this practice takes 3 minutes, sometimes 30 minutes!

@JessDalrymple Месяц назад

I just set up my weekly review today. I tried it for the first time and feel really peaceful going into my weekend! I am a paper/pen list writer too and that was key- getting all the stuff swirling around in my head out of there and down on paper. Thanks for the tips!

@tonyragusaaifppccrpschfccr8246 4 месяца назад

It’s been years since I read GTD and I am just starting to figure out how to transition from iPhone reminders with categories etc to todoist this video and many others have given me a much clearer idea and outlines on to do this.. Thank you for you passion and your well done videos. Looking forward to my first weekly review next Sunday morning

@brettstewart4851 Месяц назад

Nice blooper reel! Thanks for the insights and planning ideas. I do a weekly review but this is a method that will help refine how I do it better. I feel it will help boost my level of productivity. Thanks again.

@GertjanStoker 2 месяца назад

Great video, I know the GTD methodology and I love that Todoist is supporting this method. I myself get stuck in the beginning, getting clear, I have so much stuff to get current of. I am jealous that all these tasks can be completed in one hour!

@Andrew-ur2sf 13 дней назад

Very insightful, thank you for the walk-through of doing a weekly review!

@all-trades-bookkeeper Месяц назад

Thank you for this video! I just created a weekly review task for myself and using these helpful tips broke it out into the various sections. I am headed outside to complete my first one now. This will really help me, as a business owner I live in a constant state of overwhelm and I know it is due to a lack of planning. Thank you for providing such valuable tips on this channel.

@alisonearle5781 4 месяца назад

I’ve recently started doing a weekly review again. So helpful.

@Keith_Lewis 4 месяца назад

Great prompts Naomi - thanks! Love the structure this seems to give. Have downloaded template and have set an early alarm for tomorrow to give it a go! Suspect the inbox zero will be my main failing already!

@lavenderlime374 2 месяца назад

That was great! Looking forward to my first weekly review! This sounds like a wonderful habit to build.

@mrozek2002 4 месяца назад

This week will be the first time I undertake my weekly review. Many thanks to you for the inspiration. I hope this becomes a regular part of my weekly routine. We will see how it works for me, but I'm quite sure it will have a significant influence on me and my plans. Many thanks for the great app and advice.

@marynelson656 Месяц назад

I really appreciate this! I'm seeing just by watching this how and why the last year feels like it spun out of my control in my home and work life. I downloaded the template for the weekly review and am excited to get going! The video instruction is laid out in bite size chunks to get started with. Thank you!

@roccorende5680 4 месяца назад

I really love weekly review! Actually I do it every Sunday evening and it always makes me feel better. I review my study stuff, my current habits that I want to improve, the time spent on my smartphone and things like that. It is just great, I would recommend to everyone

@soulmagicstudio 2 месяца назад

Naomi is great. Thank you. Sometimes we need the inspiration to do the right things. Yes, weekly review is the right thing to do.

@aj69blue 4 месяца назад

Great video. I’ve just started doing “serious” weekly reviews since January. Finding them effective and starting to become enjoyable. Time to reflect and look ahead. And make subtle changes to your behaviours based on insights gained. Crucial to people who want to move their goals forward. Thanks for the video.

@ABUBAKARJIDE 3 месяца назад

his week will be the first time I undertake my weekly review. Many thanks to you for the inspiration. I hope this becomes a regular part of my weekly routine. But I'm quite sure it will have a significant influence on me and my plans. Many thanks for the great app and advice.

@oliveblue178 10 дней назад

this is so helpful. I have not been doing a review and more than feeling disorganized, I feel that I miss out on the opportunity to feel good about what I have done with my life. I'm looking forward to using this to feel more mindful

@LaurenStambaugh-ef6lf 2 месяца назад

Thank you for the great idea i can implement and explaining and giving examples.

4 месяца назад

I have created my weekly review list… I feel more in control already! I added to to reflection section to also review patterns from my personal/family life, things I’ve learnt from others, reflect on tasks that didn’t get completed and ask myself why. Thank you for the actionable suggestions. I use the Full Focus Method overall- but have totally not been doing my weekly reviews.

@lauragarside589 3 месяца назад

I start a new job soon and feel like this weekly review habit will be super useful to adopt both as I hand over my old job and start the new one. Excited to give myself 52 chances to change! Very inspiring thank you.

@jean-francoisbesner207 2 месяца назад

Thank you Naomi. I'm already doing weekly reviews, your tips will help structure it better.

@mikelittlezed1 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the video, Naomi, I've still not got around to doing weekly reviews regularly. I've been journaling and noting things every day, but not doing the weekly review. I've only been thinking of it as looking back. With a planning step as a separate thing (also not doing!) But this approach sounds more like a habit I could build. I'm gonna check out the template and the article.

@tedgale6011 3 месяца назад

I have been doing some version of a weekly review for years. This video was a helpful reminder of the benefits.

@DWheeler-qq4vt Месяц назад

Thanks, Naomi for putting together this presentation, I gave me some things to think about.

@JC-gm8dz 2 месяца назад

Excellent video, and indeed a weekly or monthly review helps a lot to see if progress is made in the goals and objectives, and Todoist is a great help!

@jimmynotjim 2 месяца назад

Fell of of doing weekly reviews but I think it's time to get back into them. Thanks for the inspiration!

@joeblack5638 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the video! It reminds me about the importance of the weekly review, and that sticking to them is worthwhile, something that I'm not so great at. But yeah, it is really easy to keep on making the same mistakes without that chance to reflect and introspect, it really is an important part of any organizational system.

@celiasmileteeth 4 месяца назад

Thanks for this. I do a weekly review but not as often as I should. This has given me some encouragement.

@KateBoeckman 25 дней назад

I haven’t done a weekly review before, but am very inspired to do so after this great video!

@saytanno 4 месяца назад

I don't know when I started to do weekly review but it makes me feel so relax. I like it because I can predict my life a little . So I could put the others things I need, for example, a medical appointment. Tks for the video ♥

@nikkiallen7831 4 месяца назад

I already have Todoist Pro, but just wanted to say how much I appreciate this video!

@kevinflynn3304 2 месяца назад

I use Todoist and have done so for some years but I have not used a scheduled weekly review before but I will do going forward - and the video sparked my thoughts on other ways too use Todoist - so a big thank you Naomi,

@scot-newbury 4 месяца назад

Right now I utilize a daily review and things tend to shift a lot during the week, but I've always thought a weekly review would help. Thanks, Naomi, for another great video with information I can use to help me make the decisions on why, what, and when for my weekly reviews.

@starwork715 2 месяца назад

I've just recently discovered GTD, and Todoist and the formality of the weekly review really resonates with me. Looking forward to learning how to use these tools effectively.

@giovanna_clapis 15 дней назад

I think I really needed to hear the Creative and Corageous part, that's not something that my coworkers and leaders have shown is something important in a day to day and it's overwhelming to think I want to work and also have personal projects. It sounds like "the real life" is the second or third priority when I compare to working in a company. I'll 100% start applying the Weekly Review for my personal gains in my own life and projects. Thanks, Naomi! I'm already a huge fan! ✨

@dvdqu33n 4 месяца назад

Great video. I was in the routine of doing a weekly personal review for most of last year, then tried to add in a work review. It was too much at once. I need to get back into the habit and this video was a great motivator!

@ChachiBonacci Месяц назад

I adopted the weekly review several months ago and I've not looked back. It's my "review and reflect" time that helps me tweak, adjust and plan for the week ahead. It also made me realize that some of my weekly (or bigger) goals were too ambitious and I needed to break things down into more digestable/achievable pieces.

@bryansmith3235 4 месяца назад

I haven’t used templates before but I’m going to try this one out. Thank you!!

@ewayte 3 месяца назад

I have it on my calendar to conduct a weekly review, but by the time that rolls around, a weekly review is the last thing I want to do! Love the bloopers! This week I fast-forwarded to them first!

@carolynbyers4846 2 месяца назад

Going to try the weekly review by using the template and the tools suggested in this video.

@ZenMaisy 3 месяца назад

GREAT video! I'm working on this philosophy, but this gives me a clearer, more comprehensive path to make this review so valuable. I've struggled to communicate it to my ADHD wife because I didn't know it well enough. She definitely needs this to stop being in reactive mode, letting everyone else determine her tasks (until she has a meltdown from that lack of control and overwhelmed that her important things never get done). Thank you!

@shelleyraine1933 2 месяца назад

I've probably been doing a weekly review in my head for most of my career, however this is a fantastic tool to help me frame but also record my thinking without impacting too much of my time. Video was great with some very realistic and achievable tips for performing the review.

@berndintemann9631 4 месяца назад

Very helpful video. Thank you. Even though I know how important a weekly review is, I often miss it. But I'm continuing to work on it.

@marbollz 4 месяца назад

Every week I have "do a weekly review" as a task in my Todoist and every week I postpone it to the next week! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I am hopeful that this video and the weekly review template will help me stop avoiding this beneficial review! Thanks, Naomi!

@Grevaldinho 4 месяца назад

I found this really valuable. Many things are included in my daily morning routine anyway, but I'm going to work on the reflection part especially, and also developing my someday/maybe and people lists.
