Live
in Quadrant II!
We
will always have activities and issues in all four
of Steven Covey's quadrants, but if you can focus
on things in Quadrant II, you will stop living completely
in Quadrant I, and will have more time and flexibility.
When
you make checklists for the day, it can be useful
to label them according to the four quadrants. We
always need to get the Quadrant I things done, but
whenever there is time, fit a Quadrant II task in,
so it will never become URGENT or PRESSING!
Do
something!
