The habit that makes GTD work. 30-60 minutes weekly. Skip it and the system collapses.
The weekly review is the single most important habit in the GTD ecosystem — and the one most people skip. David Allen calls it "the critical success factor for the system." In 30-60 minutes once a week, you: empty your inboxes completely, review all active projects and next actions, update your calendar, review your "Someday/Maybe" list, and ask "what's on my mind that I haven't captured?" The weekly review is where the system gets recalibrated. Without it, your trusted system becomes an untrusted system within two weeks. Most GTD practitioners who quit say the weekly review was where they fell off. The ones who stick with it say it's the only reason everything else works.
