# A GTD weekly review you'll actually do

> The weekly review guide walks you project by project: stalled, overdue, waiting and projects without a goal. With or without AI, in 30 minutes.

The weekly review is the heart of GTD — and the first thing people skip. AltoFocus turns it from a blank page into a short, guided conversation.

*For anyone who has tried GTD but never kept the review going for more than three weeks.*

## The situation

Tom is a project manager. He knows he should go through every project each Friday, but at 2:30 pm his head is full and an eighty-item list puts him off. He postpones the review, the system drifts from reality, and a month later he stops trusting it.

## What it looks like in AltoFocus

1. **A reminder at the time you choose.** On Friday morning AltoFocus prepares your review and sends a notification. The groundwork is done: what's overdue, what's stalled, what you're waiting for.
2. **Project by project, one question at a time.** The guide shows one project and its problem at a time: no next action, a missed due date, a task waiting on someone for over a week. Fix it with one tap, or put the project on hold.
3. **AI suggests a clean-up, you decide.** On the Altitude plan, with AI switched on, it proposes concrete steps — complete what's done, cancel what's stale, add a next action. Nothing is deleted without your confirmation.
4. **A view from above at the end.** The last step compares your goals and vision with your projects: which goals have no action, and which projects lead to nothing you care about.

## What changes

- A review in 30 minutes instead of two hours (or never).
- Every active project has a clear next action.
- The waiting-for list doesn't get lost in e-mail.
