Did the week match the intention?
A weekly check on whether your time actually followed the priorities you set
- Runs while your laptop is closed
- Reports in Littlebird and by email
- Free plan includes 5 routines
You kept two of your three intentions, and the Sparrow & Sons case study slipped.
- Held: you delivered the Tailfeather Studio pitch on Wednesday and kept Tuesday and Thursday mornings meeting-free.
- Deprioritized: the case study got 40 minutes, because the Birdseed Brands review took Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.
- Carry forward: the case study, and Monday from 9:00 to 11:00 AM is open for it.
The problem
Intentions are set on Monday with total sincerity and abandoned by Tuesday's first fire. By Friday, nobody remembers what the week was supposed to be about.
The gap between stated priority and actual behavior is the whole game, and it is invisible without a check.
What it does
Every week, this routine compares your stated intentions against what your calendar and work actually show.
You get an honest scoreboard for the week: where you held the line, where you drifted, and what to carry into the next one.
Try the prompt
Copy it into a new Littlebird routine, then set the days and times that fit your schedule
- Open Littlebird and go to Routines. Open the menu next to New Routine and choose Set up manually.
- Paste the prompt into Instructions, then set the days and time under Run.
- Littlebird runs it on schedule from then on. You can pause or edit it anytime. Auto-pause is on by default and pauses it if reports go unread.
You can also choose Create with Littlebird and describe the routine in chat.
Every Friday check: did I stick to my intentions for this week What got deprioritized and why
Why make it a routine?
You can fake this with a chat skill and enough copy-paste. Most people keep it up for a week, then stop, because the copy-paste is the actual job.
A routine removes the choreography: the context is already there, the schedule is already set, and the output shows up where you need it.
And it is private by design: SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and CCPA aligned, and your data is never sold.
Frequently asked questions
Where do I set the intentions?
In the prompt or your notes. The routine reads them and checks the week against them.
Is this a goal tracker?
Close cousin. It is less about hitting targets and more about whether the week actually pointed where you aimed it.
What happens when I drift?
It names the drift plainly. Most weeks the fix is one defended block, not a personality transplant.
How is sensitive material treated?
It keeps your business your business: no sales of data, and SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and CCPA aligned controls.
