Urgent v Important

How often do we think.. where did that day, week, even year, go?

When reviewing your 'to do' list - which for most people never gets any shorter - try marking things - Urgent or Important.

You will find that things that get marked Urgent are often just distractions. Noise created by other people.

It is particularly Important to apply this approach to the life 'to do' list - not just the one for work.
Simply by marking, and then doing, the 'Important' things, you will not necessarily get more done. But what you do is more likely to be the things that really matter.

The result... in time you will feel a greater sense of achievement and that you are moving closer towards ...A life well lived.


Of course, if you find something on a list that is truly Urgent AND Important. Just do it!
