I have written a list of Quadrant 2 activities in my notebook. I discover my Quadrant 2 tasks (Q2 tasks, as I shall refer to them from now on) by answering the following questions:
(i) What tasks are hanging over your head right now that it would be a weight off your mind – a relief – if you were to get them done?
(ii) What tasks could you do today (or this week) that must eventually be done – although you don’t really have to do them right now?
(iii) Looking at your bigger projects what important task requires doing next?
(iv) Which tasks would you need to complete to regard today/this week as a very good day/week?
My answers to these questions produce a list of things to do that, hopefully, will mean I avoid – or minimise – crises, improve the quality of my health and relationships, enhance my personal productivity and generally give me better sense of control and direction in life.
I’ll be using this blog as a means of recording how this all works out…
