Is keeping plans up to date a real problem, or just something I struggle with?
I’m trying to understand whether this workflow would actually help people working on bigger projects.
The problem I’m looking at:
Making a plan is usually easy.
Keeping that plan useful after a few days or weeks is harder.
Priorities change. New ideas appear. Some tasks become irrelevant. Other things become more important.
To solve this, the workflow is:
Drop your rough ideas, goals and notes into one place
Validate and Turn them into a clearer plan
Break that plan into weekly focus periods
Work through the week in a simple board view: To do, In progress, Waiting, Done
Reflect daily in one place
Use those reflections to suggest what needs updating, changing, or improving
The idea is to create less input heavy, repeatable and keep improving.
It is more about keeping a plan alive as things change.
Would this help in adding any value in your life or work?
Or would it still feel like another system to maintain?
Curious to hear how other people currently manage side projects, client work, solo businesses, study goals, or creative projects.
