For a productive week ahead, start your Monday by answering these 3 questions.

If you're anything like me, being more productive as an indie-hacker is always an ongoing effort. Sharing something I picked up a couple of months back:

Monday Morning

Start your day by writing down your answers to these three questions:

What are the top three things I want to accomplish this week?
What steps do I need to take to accomplish each of them?
What are the challenges or blockers that stand in my way?

I wrote about this on a thread earlier and @kitso added a couple of great points that they follow while doing this:

Write a first draft of the plan and then revise it to cut it in half. It scopes it down to the essentials

Identify a specific starting point for each priority -- a concrete and small way to get going to help switch from planning mode into doing mode.

Friday Afternoon

Come back to this and close the feedback loop with:

Compared to the priorities I set on Monday, how did I do?
What did I do well? What made me happy?
What didn't go as planned? Where can I improve?

Review your week and use the lessons to plan the next week. I started doing this when I saw a team on MyCheckins running this check-in. I put a personal productivity spin to it!

Let me know if you try it!
