Week 14 Review

April 5th, 2008 by Stephen

Posted in GTD, Productivity, Weekly Review |

Welcome back! It's good to see you again. Please note that I am now publishing all new material at my hub site: StephenPSmith.com

Last week I was unable to maintain my commitment to my Weekly Review on Friday morning, so it was skipped. This had a definite negative effect on my productivity and planning for the days that followed. Here are the results for Week 14:

  • GTD Scoring in the Book of Days for March is concluded: , April is tracking nicely towards GTD Mastery. I kept score all week long, in the face of exhaustion and lots of driving. The Sparkline shows a the effects of scrambling to get caught up - . Lack of proper planning led to a decrease in productive action. I haven’t had a low-stretch like that since the beginning of March (is it a trend?).
  • Write next e-book and training course. Once again, I was unable to dedicate the kind of time needed for this project. I need a chunk of 3-4 hours to really get it moving.
  • I was only able to clear my in-box to empty 4 days out of 7. Unacceptable.
  • Average subscriber count was 715 (+26 from the previous report), with a high of 738 on Friday! Thank you all for that.
  • Save $$$ toward some personal financial goals - complete! - I can announce that your support and assistance will enable me to attend the:

    SOBCon I’m there

    conference. Thank you for all that you do, and know that I am looking forward to keeping you all up-to-date on the conference happenings.

noteI am working on my goals for April and the coming Quarter this weekend, and preparing for week two of a 3-week Productivity Blowout in order to kick-start a couple of new projects and take my productivity practice to the next level. I will post these goals and my strategy for getting fired up shortly.
Be sure to tune in on Monday for another big post on the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.

Finally, I would love to hear from you about how you are progressing toward the incorporation of the 7 Habits into your own daily routine. Please let me know if you have any questions or need some help. Here are all of the posts in the series:
