X47 Time Management Philosophy

The matrix of urgency and importance that defines the priorities A, B and C defined and presented everywhere (especially by Professor Lothar Seiwert) is not practical.

Can you always analyse the urgency and importance of a task - two completely different dimensions of assessment? And for every activity - that is hard work.

Attention: Even high urgency does not make a B task to an A priority, unless there is impending trouble if you delay.

Pragmatically, that means: If it is important, do it. If it isn’t, don’t (you will make your own exceptions…)
