1-2-3: The “One-Minute Review” That Prevents Wasted Days

sent by Joaquín Kosegarten | July 15, 2025

Every second counts, so let’s get right to it. 1 idea, 2 ways it saves you time, and 3 steps to Get It Done:

1 Idea

Take 60 seconds at the end of each day to review what worked, what didn’t, and what’s next.

2 Ways it saves you time

1. Eliminates drift – No more waking up wondering what to do next. You get instant focus and hit the ground running each day.

2. Prevents repeating mistakes – Spot what’s slowing you down so you can adjust and move forward smarter and faster.

3 Steps to Get It Done:

1. Ask yourself three things – What worked? What didn’t? What’s the #1 thing for tomorrow?

2. Write it down – Lock it in with quick bullet points. Clear head. Sharper focus.

3. Prep your launchpad – Set up the first task so tomorrow starts on autopilot.

Conclusion

One minute of review today saves you hours of wasted time tomorrow. Try it tonight — you’ll feel the difference instantly.

“I’m too tired at the end of the day to do this.”

That’s exactly why it helps. A short 60-second check-in clears the noise, signals the day is done, and helps your brain switch off.

As promised — 1 minute that can save you hours
