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!
