The 13 weeks A-Z system can inspire a focus by week on projects that are important. The idea is to pick 13 projects you will focus on each year. You the focus on each project for 1 week 4x per year:
| ID | Week I | Week II | Week III | Week IV |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Proj1 | 1 | 14 | 27 | 40 |
| Proj2 | 2 | 15 | 28 | 41 |
| Proj3 | 3 | 16 | 29 | 42 |
| Proj4 | 4 | 17 | 30 | 43 |
| Proj5 | 5 | 18 | 31 | 44 |
| Proj6 | 6 | 19 | 32 | 45 |
| Proj7 | 7 | 20 | 33 | 46 |
| Proj8 | 8 | 21 | 34 | 47 |
| Proj9 | 9 | 22 | 35 | 48 |
| Proj10 | 10 | 23 | 36 | 49 |
| Proj11 | 11 | 24 | 37 | 50 |
| Proj12 | 12 | 25 | 38 | 51 |
| Proj13 | 13 | 26 | 39 | 52 |

The idea is to overly your 13 projects on each week 4x/year.
This is a good way to implement big projects. A author marketing plan for example. It gives structure to Chaos.
It's how brenda could have asked 10 people/week to review her book. She's still reaping the rewards of that effort!
