Set up your first week in GullyHabits

Start with a small set of tasks and build a weekly plan you can adjust.

4 October 2026 · 1 min read

Capture the commitments you already know

Begin with the work and personal tasks you expect this week. Include appointments you need visible in GullyHabits, since existing external calendar events aren’t imported.

Use a separate task for each activity you can meaningfully schedule or complete.

Give the important tasks a place

Choose dates, start times, and lengths for tasks that need a specific place in the week. Leave other tasks unscheduled until you know where they fit.

Check your account’s working hours, then compare the planned time for each day with the hours available.

Add just enough organisation

Create a few categories you recognise. Add a life area when it helps explain the broader purpose of a task. You can refine these choices as your list grows.

Set reminders for commitments you need help remembering. Use repeats for tasks that return on a regular schedule.

Leave time to review

At the end of each day, mark completed work and reconsider unfinished tasks. At the end of the week, look at the hours recorded in Reports.

Choose one adjustment for the following week. A useful first week teaches you how much detail and structure you need.
