ADVICE

Review Horizons First Weekly

  • Keep your horizons of focus as a list in your system, separate from daily filtering like tasks.
  • Review them at the top of every weekly review to stay clear and aligned with what's important.
ADVICE

Limit Active Goals and Vision Reviews

  • Limit your active goals to a manageable number, like 10 per year and 2-3 per quarter.
  • Review visions quarterly instead of weekly to avoid overload and stay focused.
ADVICE

Use 12-Week Goal Cycles

  • Use a 12-week cycle to evaluate and adjust goals regularly.
