The Weekly Operating System

About this book

It is Thursday evening, you are not sure what you actually finished this week, and something important is probably waiting in one of four inboxes. The Weekly Operating System is a small, complete planning system that runs on paper, in a notes app or in any task manager, built on four layers: catch, sort, plan and do. Its heart is the Weekly Reset, a timed 45-minute review (with a 15-minute express version) that turns a cluttered list into a Week Map planned from the hours you really have. You will set up a 10-minute Day Card and Close-Out, protect focus blocks, batch email with ready-to-send templates, run meetings that end in decisions, and use twelve procrastination techniques matched to why you are stuck, plus ten scripts for saying no and a Low-Power Mode for rough weeks. A 14-day setup plan walks you through the build, and every template is in your library as a printable PDF. For professionals, managers, students, parents and freelancers. You will still be busy. You will also know when to stop.
