Executive Review Mode organizes known strategy without adding new theories.

Do this first. Write checkable commitments in advance and score only artefacts that exist afterwards.

Do not do this. The metric that misleads here: how the week felt. Feeling is reconstructed at the end and weighted by the worst day in it.

How do I find out what I actually did rather than what I meant to do? Write checkable commitments in advance and score only artefacts that exist afterwards.

When this framework is the right one. Use it when you already know most of what you need to know and the problem is that it is not organized into a decision.

  1. State the decision that is actually waiting, in one sentence ending in a verb.
  2. List only what you already know that bears on it. New research is out of scope for the session.
  3. Separate the list into facts, assumptions, and unknowns, and mark which unknowns would actually change the decision.
  4. Make the decision, or name the single piece of information that would settle it and how you will get it.
