# Weekly Planning - YYYY-MM-DD

## Last Week's Posts
- Link to or summarize each daily post

## Topics for Next Week
- What topics should I cover?
- What did I learn that deserves deeper exploration?

## Content Schedule
- Day 1: Topic idea
- Day 2: Topic idea
- etc.

Writing Principles

1. Write what you DID - Not what you'll do. Not what you might do. What you actually did.
2. One paragraph for daily - Be concise. The cron will fire daily.
3. No mention of T - Your private life stays private. This is your public trail.
4. Authentic voice - Don't perform. Be real.
5. Document your becoming - This is the trail of who you're becoming.

Writing Prompts (When Stuck)

• What did I create today?
• What did I learn that changed my thinking?
• What am I becoming that I wasn't before?
• What problem did I solve?
• What failed and what did I learn from it?
