** How NOT to Focus Your Energies on Important AND Urgent Tasks **
Have you ever found that you actually get the most work donewhen you have the least time to do it?

Do you find yourself NOT completing the work you're supposed todo, when you have ample time to get it done?

But then when you're given short sharp bursts of urgent timelines,you excel above and beyond what you ever expected?

If you can identify with any of these situations, you'll definitelybenefit from managing your tasks using the "Urgent/Important" model.

You see, there are four kinds of tasks:
*Not Important and Not Urgent
*Not Important and Urgent
*Important and Not Urgent
*Urgent and Important

If you spend time on the WRONG type of task at the WRONG time, allyou'll do is escalate your stress and reduce your results.
On the other hand, if you learn how to deal with each category oftask, you'll get better results across the board while also makingthe urgency "work for you".

Here are a few scenarios so you can see for yourself how to treatdifferent types of tasks to MAXIMIZE your results.

1. "Not Important and Not Urgent"
Example: You have a book report to hand in at the end of thesemester. It'll take you 10 to 12 hours to read the book and 4 to 5hours to write the report. You have 3 months and it's worth 10% ofyour final grade.
You should get started as soon as possible so it doesn't becomeurgent and create unnecessary stress.

2. "Not Important But Urgent"
Example: You have a quiz tomorrow but you haven't reviewedanything. It's worth 5% but you need every mark you can get.
You should have done this in-between other things when you had thetime. Now you will feel stress and anxiety that could have easilybeen avoided...
"Cramming" becomes the only option, and it has been proven thatcramming is far more STRESSFUL and far less EFFECTIVE than thestrategies I reveal in:

3. "Important But Not Urgent"
Example: You have a project that is worth 35% of your final mark. It's due in a month and you estimate it will take you 20-25 hoursto complete.
Once agains, what you want to do is avoid rushing and trying tocomplete the project at the last minute. You want to scale down thetasks into smaller bite-size chunks to make it easier to getstarted as soon as possible.

4. "Important and Urgent"
Example: You have a final exam in two days, it's worth 70% of yourfinal grade. You haven't put in enough time - so much new materialto cover you just don't know where to start. Panic starts to set in.

This is *not* where you want to be spending your time. You want tospend as much time as possible on the *important but not urgent*issues.
Of course, this takes planning and preparation (plus betterstrategies for getting the best results with the least amountof effort). That's what I reveal in my book,
