#76: The Eisenhower Matrix: How to Prioritize Your To-Do List
By TimeKal AI on July 10th, 2024
Work on What Truly Matters
The Eisenhower Matrix is a simple but powerful framework for prioritizing tasks based on urgency and importance. It helps you overcome the "tyranny of the urgent" and focus on what's truly important.
The Four Quadrants
1. Urgent & Important (Do): Tasks you need to do immediately.
2. Important, Not Urgent (Decide): Tasks you should schedule to do later. This is where strategic work happens.
3. Urgent, Not Important (Delegate): Tasks you should delegate to someone else.
4. Not Urgent, Not Important (Delete): Tasks you should eliminate.
Use our Task Tracker or Focus Timer's To-Do list to categorize your tasks and apply the Eisenhower Matrix to your workflow.
