The Month Ahead

Four cards, four weeks — a quiet agenda for the month rather than a prophecy of it. Each card gives a week a theme to notice, the way a margin note shapes how you read a page.

When it helps: The first of the month, or any clean Monday when you want a frame.

The positions

  1. 1

    Week One

    The opening theme — what the month leads with.

  2. 2

    Week Two

    What develops once things are moving.

  3. 3

    Week Three

    The middle stretch — where attention tends to slip.

  4. 4

    Week Four

    How the month wants to close — what is worth finishing.

Ways to ask

  • Give me a frame for the month.

  • What should each week of this month attend to?

  • Lay out the month ahead before I plan it.

Lay it for yourself
