How it works

1. Choose your file

Three decisions, thirty seconds. The year you want to start with. Standard if you use Paper Pro, Paper Pure or reMarkable 2; Move if you use reMarkable Paper Pro Move. RH if you are right-handed, LH if you are left-handed. Every combination is in your download.

2. Import it

Open the reMarkable app on your computer or phone and import the PDF, or connect your tablet by USB and upload it at 10.11.99.1. It takes about two minutes. Keep the original download as your backup: import the file once and write in that copy.

If you chose a left-handed file, turn on left-handed mode on your reMarkable so the toolbar moves to the right, clear of the tabs.

3. Use the loop

This is the whole method, and it takes one week to become automatic.

• In the meeting — open a free record in the meeting register, write a title beside its number, and take your notes. Finish in the box at the bottom: the decision, the next action, the owner, the due date.
• Right after — tap Follow-up and turn the decision into commitments with a status.
• Same day — write the record number, M07 for example, beside the action in your Now list and in the day you plan to do it.
• On Friday — open the weekly review. Four questions, and everything you wrote has an address.

4. Keep it alive

The action lists are a board, not a log: erase a row when the item is done or has moved. Use the quick capture pages for anything that does not have a home yet. In January, import the next year's file: the structure and the record numbers are identical.

What it does not do

Nothing syncs, nothing transfers your handwriting between pages, and no button changes a status by itself. The links move you between pages. You do the rest.
