I'm a big fan of gantt charts for bigger projects. This is what my current approach looks like:
I've a big gantt chart which maps out small tasks to achieve a quarterly goal I'm working on. I mark in when to do them by week. (I crossed them off for the first week but didn't bother after that. They're crossed off in the weeklies)
Then each week I transfer the relevant bits to my Alistair style weekly and add the trackers I need down the bottom.
I should note the gantt chart didn't come out of thin air. I started with several spreads of mulling over options and ideas and breaking it down to the smaller tasks that would move me towards my goal.
