David Sparks recommends project reviews every day. There may be a new wisdom emerging after MacSparky published “ Task Management When the Bullets are Flying” a couple of weeks ago. Until recently the only advice out there was to be literally religious about not missing weekly reviews. But then be prepared to do reviews in your mind every minute.”. As David Allen puts it: “ If you choose not to do weekly reviews, it’s fine. This will make your system outdated, further reduce your trust, and require more time and effort for the next review, etc. As a result you may be inclined to ‘ go with the flow’, start ‘working from the Inbox’. This reduces your trust that OmniFocus has accurate and updated information on your tasks and projects. If you can’t find this time (for example, due to travel or a major project deadline) you may miss a weekly review. The problem with weekly reviews is that they require large chunks of time (often 2–3 hours for me).

In his argument, Covey refers to major religions which prescribe to free one day a week from work and devote it to pray or meditation. In his 1990s bestseller “ The 7 Habits of the Highly Effective People”, a GTD system predecessor Stephen Covey also recommends weekly reviews. This is logical because our work and life have weekly rhythms. By default OmniFocus creates a weekly review schedule for each project (although you can change it through the Project Inspector). How often should we press the Review button on the OmniFocus toolbar? The GTD system recommends weekly reviews.
