Stephen Covey’s “Four Quadrant” Time Management Matrix. Your goal should be to strive to do ONLY activities in the top 2 quadrants. And these should be balanced as follows:

Q1 – Quadrant of Necessity (important and urgent): Give these tasks immediate attention and clear them out of the way as fast, efficiently and precisely as possible. Then focus on…

Q2 – Quadrant of Quality and Personal Leadership (important but not urgent items). This is where you build your future!

Q3 – Quadrant of Distractions With High Urgency (urgent but not important): These should be minimized, eliminated or delegated if possible.

Q4 – Quadrant of Low Value Activities (not urgent and not important): – these should be eliminated to the greatest extent possible.
