Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

  • Every week I hit the same walls and learn nothing
  • My weeks get hijacked by whatever lands in my inbox first thing Monday, and by Friday I’ve just been reacting the whole time
  • I keep meaning to step back and take stock, but reflection always loses to whatever’s urgent
  • I get to the end of a packed day having ticked off a hundred little things and still can’t point to one that actually mattered
  • I made a real plan for the week and somewhere along the way it quietly fell apart again, and I genuinely can’t tell you where it went sideways

  2. Getting Results the Agile Way (AGS), Made Practical
    J.D. Meier’s Agile Results (also called Agile Getting Started or AGS) is a time-management framework built on a simple rule: name three outcomes at the day, week, month, and year level, and focus your effort on completing them. The Monday Vision / Daily Outcomes / Friday Reflection rhythm is a practitioner structure grounded in goal-specificity and reflection research, not a formally studied protocol.
  3. Set a Monday Vision each week
    Every Monday, name three outcomes for the week before the week’s reactive demands crowd them out.
