As with anything we find resistance towards, It’s easier to overcome the inertia of getting started if it’s reduced to smaller chunks of time.

So what's your strategy? How do you prioritise and cope with your own tasks?

[juanm.urbina]

I saw a video by Dave Crenshaw questioning this method and it made a lot of sense. This matrix worked in the 1960s and before the internet era, right now with emails, messages, social media everything is urgent and everything is important. So it is more a matter of WHEN you need to schedule it in your calendar (sooner or later).

This video was a great reminder of the importance of prioritizing tasks! We often get caught up in doing things that are urgent but not important. Let's all be more mindful of this in the future and focus on the tasks that truly matter.🍃

Certain things many productivity gurus consider both unimportant and not urgent are actually things that should be reconsidered to be quite important - leisure time/relaxation/having time for fun or joy in your day...

[ArturoCabello]

Start with the most difficult task of the day first. You'll be far more productive as a result.

I've been procrastinating an important project with homework for the past day. This couldn't have come at a better time, thank you.

Procrastination is a lack of motivation.

Prioritizing tasks is a great way to be more productive during the day

Prioritization and the execution is indeed vital. Useful tool the Eisenhower matrix.

Great summary. I knew about this method - but it was a great reminder, thanks😀
.
At the moment we have a system where we single out the 3 most important tasks to be done that week. It can be far too easy to be constantly dealing with the urgent tasks that come up — and lose sight of the larger important projects.
.
Also focusing on the IGT (income generating tasks) can be very helpful.

Love the format of the videos - the visual aspect and of course the message

[madyati]

I like your videos as you describe the complex things in the most simplistic way

Eisenhower matrix really helps me to decide faster...helps clear my confusion and indecision!

Can imagine a man who comes up with this to be a man who goes down in history as a legend..

Who's here watching youtube instead of getting their tasks done?

[gordonwilson]

Oh to be a president or general or boss or not have a boss. The worst situation is knowing what has to be prioritised but the delegated tasks from on high are deemed a priority.
The workers’ paradox.

[jessewood]

How can one 'delegate' anything if they live alone and/or are not a manager in the work place? To delegate requires people & or subordinates, am I wrong? It also seems wrong to delegate 'urgent but not important' tasks to say; a roommate or partner just to make yourself more efficient.

Eisenhour warned us in his last speech as president to beware of the 'military industrial complex' Google that!! Legendary

This matrix looks exactly like Steven Covey's (7 habits of effective people) matrix? ?
