Design Your Ideal Week

Step One: Assess Your Current Realities
Think about what makes your week so bad and so good. Write down what’s working really well and where in the week you feel stuck, overwhelmed or displeased.


Step Two: Group Similar Work Together
Combine smaller tasks in batches of time. For example, maybe 1 on 1 meetings can be put in an afternoon or checking email gets done at a couple of points in the day.


Step Three: Use a blank weekly calendar to start filling in your Ideal Week.


Step Four: Map Out Priorities
Complete high leverage work when your Energy is highest.

For example, I practice No Meeting Mondays so I can spend that day preparing for the week, working on writing projects or catching up on tasks that will free me up to focus on client sessions scheduled later in the week. Another friend does the opposite and holds all her staff meetings on Monday. She likes to start her week in touch with people and helping them direct their Intention for the week. Then she’s got the rest of the week to follow up on whatever those Monday meetings uncovered.


Step Five: Add Everything Else
Finish filling in your Ideal Week calendar and start practicing to find what works.


​This exercise is one example of the tools we offer in our team workshops and leadership coaching services. If you found it helpful and want to learn more, we’d love to talk with you.
