Weekly Action Queue

The Weekly Action Queue (WAQ) is a simple, yet powerful framework for turning broad goals into concrete, actionable steps. By breaking the week into short, focused tasks, you can keep momentum, track progress, and stay aligned with your long‑term plan.

1. Set a Core Objective

• Identify the primary goal you want to advance this week.
• Write it as a single, clear sentence.
• Example: “Launch the new product landing page.”

2. List Supporting Tasks

3. Establish Daily Focus

Create a daily schedule that slots each task into a specific time block. Use a calendar app or a simple paper planner.

4. Review & Adjust

At the end of each day, answer:

• Did I complete the task? ✅
• If not, why? ❌
• What can I shift tomorrow?

5. Celebrate Milestones

Acknowledge small wins. It fuels motivation and reinforces the habit of consistent action.

Pro tip: Keep the WAQ visible—pin it to your desk, set a phone wallpaper, or use a digital board. Seeing your plan daily keeps it top of mind.

How WAQ Helps You Build a Big Plan

• Clarity: Each task is a tangible step toward a larger vision.
• Accountability: Deadlines and owners make progress measurable.
• Flexibility: If priorities change, you can swap tasks without losing sight of the goal.
• Momentum: Completing daily tasks builds confidence and creates a rhythm of accomplishment.

By integrating the Weekly Action Queue into your routine, you translate lofty aspirations into a series of manageable actions—exactly what a Big Plan requires.
