In this episode of *Playbook Radio*, host Martin Williams breaks down a powerful strategy to boost productivity and avoid burnout: using your weekends to plan and your weekdays to execute. He discusses how most people juggle demanding 9-to-5 jobs, family obligations, and side projects—and how the key to managing it all lies in ruthless time management and written planning.

Martin shares how he personally uses Sundays (or Saturdays) to map out his entire week using an AI-generated plan that covers work tasks, personal responsibilities, health goals, family obligations, and even fun. He stresses that your mind is for creativity, not storage—and that trying to keep everything in your head is a fast track to stress and failure.

Listeners will learn how to:

* Identify unfinished tasks from the previous week and roll them into the new week

* Account for meetings and subtract that time from total work hours

* Break the remaining time into 30-minute blocks to allocate and prioritize tasks

* Protect their time from distractions and unnecessary meetings

* Use a downloadable planning template to jumpstart their weekly game plan

Martin also explains how this structured approach leads not only to greater productivity but also to becoming more organized, creative, and ultimately more successful—both at work and in life.
