Action items refer to those items you cross off from a to-do list as you finish tasks. However, checking items off a to-do list does not always mean you are progressing towards accomplishing your goals. Action items are different from your aligned objectives and key results. Your objectives (Os) and key results (KRs) should be like daily or weekly to-do lists. If an OKR, thus, is not on track, you should preferably adjust your to-do list in speed or scope.
