Quadrant analysis is a method to classify tasks and whether they are low effort/high effort and low importance/high importance.
The method is often used to prioritize addressing the low effort high importance tasks, but too often one gets curtailed into addressing the low effort and low importance because they are easier; because all those things add up don’t they?
Pro tip: Easy to do? Let someone else do it. Pay a friend, intern or personal assistant to do it.
Then you can put your attention to where it matters most, where it’s exhausting work but ultimately worth it.
Don’t make the same mistake with your work projects as you do with your personal to-do lists.
We’re all attracted to what’s easy, but it’s not where the real value is.
Stay Positive & It Won’t Get Easier, But It’ll Always Be Worth It
