Monthly Review

Linked from

My Monthly Review is a wider look-back at my life for the last month and the state of my finances and Decision Log.

It is generated by my Dynamic Org Captures macro:

Weekly Review

Linked from

Every other Tuesday I perform my Bi-Weekly Review an act of looking backwards and then looking forward. During this time I also look at the progress on my Habits and do some Knowledge Management house-keeping.

 * Task Work

 ** NEXT Clean up last week's journal 

- look for unlinked entries

- look for dangling tasks.

 ** NEXT Write this week's goals at the top of this week's journal.
 ** NEXT Triage Email

defdaily lets me create templates with dynamic file names in them (it's an implementation detail)

This simple agenda will show me events that happened this week. I can turn on logging of task clocking and complete events using the v key to open a little menu up. When I do my weekly review it's done with an org-mode capture generated by my Dynamic Org Captures macro.
