weekly is better since it takes a few days to solidify various efforts into something worth developing.
replyI encourage new tool development, I’m more calling attention to Tool optimizers who are continuously migrating task systems and obsessing over “productivity”.
A daily pen and paper journal with weekly check in would suffice.
Weekly is often the sweet spot because it gives ideas/time to “gel” into something worth acting on, without turning your life into a constant triage loop.
replyAnd +1 on not rewarding tool-churn. The goal isn’t a more elaborate system, it’s a simple ritual that reliably produces real output. If a pen-and-paper journal plus a weekly check-in works, that’s already the whole game.
What does your weekly check look like in practice: are you mainly pruning (delete/ignore), distilling (rewrite what matters), or committing (pick 1–3 actions for the next week)?
