Instead of planning every detail of your week, choose one theme. This week might be about finishing projects. Next week might be about starting new ones. Another week might focus on relationships, or health, or learning.
The theme guides your decisions without dictating them. When you are unsure what to do, you ask: does this align with this week’s theme? If yes, do it. If no, save it for another week.
This approach provides direction while maintaining flexibility. You know what the week is about, but you are not locked into specific tasks that might become irrelevant as circumstances change.
Choose a theme for next week. Write it down. Then use it to guide your decisions. Notice how much clearer your priorities become when you have a theme to guide you.
