The weekly review that survives
Every serious method converges on the same ritual. GTD calls it the weekly review. OKRs call it the check-in. Agile calls it the retro. Thirty minutes where you stop producing and look at the system itself: what is stuck, what went quiet, what deserves next week.
It is the highest-leverage block in the whole calendar, and it is the first one people drop. By March, the review is a guilty calendar entry that keeps getting moved. Not because anyone stops believing in it. Because the review is a TOUR: six lists in five screens, and the tour tax gets paid before any value arrives.
Make the review a walk, then make it a record
Two structural moves kill the tour tax, and the picture shows both.
First: everything the review looks at lives in one tree. Projects, Waiting-for, Someday, Inbox are branches, so "walk the system" is scrolling one screen with everything else collapsed. No app-switching, no tabs, no "where was that list".
Second: the review itself is a master checklist with dated runs. The master at the top is never ticked; each Friday you duplicate it, date it, and tick the copy. The runs pile up underneath as a record. That record is what keeps the ritual alive in March: a visible streak has weight, a skipped week is visible as a gap, and when an item gets ticked without thought five weeks straight, you delete it and the review gets shorter.
Five items is the right length. The picture's master has three; start there and grow only on evidence.
The agent takes the clerk's half
The clerk's half of the ritual, an agent does without being asked: each Friday morning it duplicates the master, dates it, files it under RUNS, and pre-fills what it can already verify ("Inbox to zero" gets ticked by counting, not by feeling). You arrive to a review that is half done and entirely honest, and you spend your thirty minutes on the three judgement calls that actually need you.
Take the ritual
Open the Weekly Review template, press "Show in my Pando", and the master with its RUNS folder stands in your tree. Your first run is this Friday; duplicate, date, tick.
