Exploring the weekly planning session

- Do you need to have a weekly planning session?…Some people ask me this question…after completing my Time Management Fundamentals course.…Why?…Because I specifically don't give any recommendation…to have weekly planning.…In fact, personally,…I don't do any weekly planning.…First, I'll explain why that is…and then, I'll explain some things that you could do…if you still see value in holding a weekly planning session.…In my Time Management courses…I talk about the importance of processing.…

Processing takes roughly about five hours a week.…It's time you have scheduled in your calendar…where you decide what you're going to do with each item,…when you're going to do it,…and where is its home.…During that step of deciding…when you're going to do things,…you are making prioritization decisions.…Things that are high priority…you are scheduling time to do them soon.…Perhaps, tomorrow or, in the next week or two.…Things that are low priority…you're scheduling to do further out into the future.…

Perhaps, several months from now.…
