Following is a
very good matrix that helps you identify and eliminate unimportant activities
and allows you to focus on what matters most in your personal and professional
lives.
Message to note
here is:
Things which matter most must never be
at the mercy of things which matter least.
Choose to spend
most of your day’s time in quadrant II so that time spent in quadrant I can be
reduced. Very minimal time should be spent in quadrant III and IV.
