Stop Being Busy. Start Being Productive.
The difference between "urgent" and "important" changes everything.

The 4 Quadrants Explained
🔥 1. Do First
Urgent & Important
Crises, deadlines, and problems. If you don't do these, there are immediate consequences.
📅 2. Schedule
Not Urgent & Important
Strategic planning, exercise, skill building. This is where success happens.
🤝 3. Delegate
Urgent & Not Important
Interruptions, some emails, and meetings. These feel like work but don't advance your goals.
🗑️ 4. Don't Do
Not Urgent & Not Important
Time wasters, scrolling social media, and busy work. Eliminate these ruthlessly.
