Do you make time to plan your week ahead? When do you do that? What happens if you don’t?

Question

I have to plan my week ahead, usually taking stock of what's coming up on Sunday and then aligning on priorities on Monday. If this doesn't happen then I am far more prone to overestimating my capacity and getting off track.

@kyrio Also baked into my own planning is messaging my coaching clients to do the same.

Nothing too complicated, just keep it simple and identify & protect time for what matters most!

Yep. Sunday mornings I usually do this for the week ahead.

Identify key priorities and projects
Identify specific first/next steps
Talk with wife about what family-kid related stuff is happening (activities, pickups, drop offs, dinner making, etc)
talk with wife about her schedule and how it impacts the above
Block time in calendar
Enjoy the rest of the Sunday

I created a free application called IXORD Notes and my employees and I use it for our plans. But task priority and task end time helps me plan
