-- [ ] Collect Loose Papers and Materials: Pull out all miscellaneous
-  pieces of paper, business cards, receipts, and so on that have crept
-  into the crevices of your desk, clothing, and accessories. Put it
-  all in your in-tray for processing.
-- [ ] Get “IN” to Zero: Review any meeting notes and miscellaneous
-  scribbles on notepaper or in your mobile devices. Decide and list
-  any action items, projects, waiting-fors, calendar events, and
-  someday/maybes, as appropriate. File any reference notes and
-  materials. Get the “in” areas of e-mails, texts, and voice mails to
-  zero. Be ruthless with yourself, processing all notes and thoughts
-  relative to interactions, projects, new initiatives, and input that
-  have come your way since your last download, and purging those not
-  needed.

-- [ ] Review Action Lists: Mark off completed actions. Review for
-  reminders of further action steps to record. Many times I’ve been
-  moving so fast I haven’t had a chance to mark off many completed
-  items on my list, much less figure out what to do next. This is the
-  time to do that.
-- [ ] Archive completed or inactive projects, briefly reviewing each
-  note and moving it to other notebooks if it could be useful there.
-- [ ] Review [[https://calendar.google.com/calendar/r/agenda][Previous Calendar Data]]: Review the past two to three
-  weeks of calendar entries in detail for remaining or emergent action
-  items, reference information, and so on, and transfer that data into
-  the active system. Grab every “Oh! That reminds me . . . !” with its
-  associated actions. You will likely notice meetings and events that
-  you attended, which trigger thoughts of what to do next about the
-  content. Be able to archive your past calendar with nothing left
-  uncaptured.
-- [ ] Review Upcoming Calendar: Look at further calendar entries
-  (long-and short-term). Capture actions about projects and
-  preparations required for upcoming events. Your calendar is one of
-  the best checklists to review regularly, to prevent last-minute
-  stress and trigger creative front-end thinking.* Upcoming travel,
-  conferences, meetings, holidays, etc. should be assessed for
-  projects to add to your “Projects” and “Next Actions” lists for any
-  of those situations that are already on your radar but not yet on
-  cruise control.
-- [ ] Review Waiting For List: Any needed follow-up? Need to send an
-  e-mail to get a status on it? Need to add an item to someone’s
-  Agenda list to update when you’ll talk with him or her? Record any
-  next actions. Check off any already received.
-- [ ] Review Project (and Larger Outcome) Lists: Evaluate the status
-  of projects, goals, and outcomes, one by one, ensuring that at least
-  one current kick-start action for each is in your system. Browse
-  through any active and relevant project plans, support materials,
-  and any other work-in-progress material to trigger new actions,
-  completions, waiting-fors, etc.
-- [ ] Review Stuck Projects: Stuck projects are project that have no
-  next actions. For the definitions of what a project is and how to
-  check if it stuck, customize the variable ‘org-stuck-projects’.
-- [ ] Review Any Relevant Checklists: Is there anything else that you
-  haven’t done, that you need or want to do, given your various
-  engagements, interests, and responsibilities?a

-- [ ] Review Someday Maybe List: Check for any projects that may have
-  become more interesting or valuable to activate, and transfer them
-  to Projects. Delete any that have simply stayed around much longer
-  than they should, as the world and your interest have changed enough
-  to take them off even this informal radar. Add any emerging
-  possibilities that you’ve just started thinking about.
-- [ ] Be Creative and Courageous: Are there any new, wonderful,
-  harebrained, creative, thought-provoking, risk-taking ideas you can
-  capture and add into your system, or “external brain”?
