Why use this checklist
A weekly plan puts chosen tasks, meetings and time for rest into one review. It does not guarantee a particular number of hours saved. Place difficult work according to your schedule and observations; Monday and Tuesday are not everyone’s peak-energy days. Manually place tasks in the weekly planner to see your plan. Allow adjustments while keeping important priorities.
How to use it
The best time for weekly planning is Sunday evening (20-30 minutes in a calm environment) or Monday morning before work begins. Use the Sinqly weekly planner for visualization. Do not schedule more than 3 large tasks per day — leave a buffer for the unexpected. Always plan rest: it is just as important as work tasks.
For recurring actions, use the Sinqly habit tracker. Organize morning activities in the morning routine module. The weekly planner helps distribute tasks, and you can discuss next steps with the AI coach.
