Weekly Review Skill
A structured approach to weekly reflection and planning that builds momentum over time.
When to Use
Triggers:
- "How did this week go?"
- "Let's do a weekly review"
- "Plan for next week"
- "Weekly reflection time"
- Regular scheduled review sessions
Review Framework
Use the template in template.md as your starting structure:
- Week Snapshot - Key metrics and overall feeling
- Wins - What went well, no matter how small
- Lessons - What you learned, what you'd do differently
- Energy Patterns - When were you most/least effective?
- Next Week Focus - 2-3 priority areas, not a task list
Customization Areas
Replace these sections based on your priorities:
- Metrics that matter to you (health, work, relationships)
- Review questions that resonate with your goals
- Planning horizons (some prefer daily, others monthly context)
- Reflection depth (tactical vs. strategic focus)
Key Principles
- Progress over perfection - Celebrate small wins
- Patterns over events - Look for recurring themes
- Forward-looking - Spend more time on next week than last week
- Honest but constructive - Acknowledge problems without dwelling
