# Weekly review

> A recurring check of inboxes, commitments, calendars and priorities used to prepare the coming week.

## What it means

A recurring session to clear inboxes, review commitments and plan the coming week; its best-known form is in David Allen’s Getting Things Done — A 30-minute agenda people can copy.

## A practical example

Friday’s review clears captures, checks next week’s calendar, closes finished tasks and chooses three priorities.

## Put it into practice

- Name the concrete situation before applying the label. Weekly review is useful only when it changes a choice, boundary or next action.
- Make the state visible: write the owner, time, source or stopping condition down instead of relying on memory.
- Review what happened. Keep the part that reduced ambiguity and change the part that added ceremony without helping the work.
