Process
Step 1: Review the Week
| Section | Prompts |
|---|
| Completed | What did you finish this week? What shipped, merged, or was delivered? |
| In progress | What's still underway? What % complete? |
| Blocked | What couldn't move forward? Why? Who can unblock it? |
| Unplanned work | What came up that wasn't on the plan? How much time did it consume? |
| Dropped | What did you choose not to do? Was that the right call? |
Step 2: Reflect
| Question | Purpose |
|---|
| What went well? | Identify patterns to repeat |
| What didn't go well? | Identify patterns to fix |
| What did I learn? | Capture insights for growth |
| Where did I spend my time? | Awareness of time allocation vs. priorities |
| Did I work on the most important things? | Alignment check |
Step 3: Plan Next Week
| Priority | Task / Goal | Why It Matters | Estimated Effort | Dependencies |

| P1 | [Must do] | [Impact] | [Hours/days] | [Blockers] |
| P2 | [Should do] | [Impact] | [Hours/days] | [Blockers] |

Quality Checklist
Edge Cases
- Light week (vacation, sick): Still review; note capacity reduction and adjusted expectations
- Chaotic week (all unplanned): Focus the reflection on why — is this a pattern or an anomaly?
- Team review (not individual): Aggregate across team members; focus on team-level blockers and wins
