Honest Weekly Review

What it does

A blunt end-of-week debrief that finds the pattern in what you keep NOT doing — and gives you one specific change, not a motivational speech.

When to use it

• End of every week, especially the messy ones
• The same tasks keep rolling over week after week
• Before your Weekly Reset, so next week’s plan learns something

The skill

Here's how my week actually went:
- Got done: [LIST]
- Didn't get to: [LIST]
- Where it went off track: [WHAT HAPPENED]

Be honest with me:
1. THE PATTERN — What keeps showing up in what I fail to finish?
   Look at the type of task, not just the task.
2. THE REAL CAUSE — Is it my planning, my time estimates, or
   something I keep avoiding? Pick one and defend it with evidence
   from what I told you.
3. ONE CHANGE — A single specific adjustment for next week. Not
   "manage time better" — something I could explain to a friend in
   one sentence and they'd know exactly what I'm doing differently.

Rule: no praise padding, no "you did great considering". If avoidance
is the pattern, name what I'm avoiding.

Tweaks

• Save each week’s answer — after a month, feed all 4 in and ask for the meta-pattern
• Run it even on good weeks; knowing why a week worked matters as much
