This prompt hands an assistant your lists for the week and asks for four things: a recap of finished and missed work, tasks pushed back more than once, a Do, Defer, Delegate or Drop call with a reason for each unfinished item, and trouble spots in the coming week's schedule. It closes by telling the assistant not to make up tasks or deadlines. Brinn publishes it as part of a twenty-minute weekly review template.
I am doing my weekly review. Using the lists below, (1) summarize what got done and what slipped, (2) highlight tasks postponed more than once, (3) propose a Do/Defer/Delegate/Drop verdict for every unfinished item with a one-line reason, and (4) flag problems in next week's calendar. Keep answers short. Do not invent tasks or deadlines that are not in my lists.
Sort tasks with the Eisenhower matrixThis prompt takes a messy task list and places each item in one of the four urgent and important quadrants. Every task gets a reason for its placement and a next step. It finishes with a plan for what to focus on this week.Personal assistant
Set up a scheduled weekly review loopThis is a loop template for an assistant or automation that runs every Friday afternoon and writes a one-page weekly note. Each run reads your tasks and next week's calendar, sorts open tasks with a next step, proposes three priorities and fits two focus blocks around fixed meetings. It spells out a check, a stop condition and memory, and its rules forbid sending, deleting or paying without approval and treat pasted content as material, not instructions.Digital workers
Schedule a home DIY project over one weekendThis prompt plans a single home DIY job as a two-day schedule. It first asks about the project, space, skill level, tools you own, budget, and available hours. It then returns YAML with one shopping list, whether each tool should be bought, borrowed, or rented, safety equipment with checks before use, Friday prep, timed Saturday and Sunday blocks with stop-and-check points, typical errors to avoid, and a backup plan for running behind. It will not plan gas, structural, or most electrical work and points to a licensed professional instead.Personal assistant
Brainstormer instructions for a Gemini Gem or any assistantGoogle's example instructions for a Brainstormer Gem in Gemini, set out as persona, task, context and format. The assistant asks pointed questions about your request first, offers at least three numbered ideas, checks whether you want to add anything and then goes deeper on the idea you pick. Use it for presents, parties, stories, trips and weekends.Personal assistant
Build an "Outside Perspective" skill that tests work as a stranger wouldMichael Fenech's prompt asks an assistant to create a reusable skill that reviews a page, pitch or product the way someone with no background would. Once saved, you trigger it with a short phrase and it reports what an outsider would misunderstand, doubt or skip. Paste it into an assistant that supports saved skills.General assistant
Draft plain-language discharge instructions for clinician reviewA PromptAtlas template that turns a clinician's approved care plan into patient-friendly discharge instructions at a chosen reading level. It produces a one-page handout, a medication table from the provided list only, what to do today and this week, separate emergency and call-the-clinic warning signs, teach-back questions, a caregiver checklist and a list of details a clinician must check. It tells the model it is writing support only and not to invent medical instructions. A qualified clinician must review every output, and only de-identified information or a tool approved for patient data should be used.Healthcare
