Travelling Through Time

Traveling Through Time
This is about travelling through (business) time and the way to go about it and perform tasks as comfortably as possible.
Efficiency is key.
In one of his speeches, General Eisenhower included a statement that makes it all clear.“I have two kinds of problems: the urgent and the important. The urgent are not important, and the important are never urgent.”
  1. Important activities have an outcome that leads to us achieving our goals, whether these are professional or personal. Important tasks are things that contribute to our long-term mission, values, and goals. Sometimes important tasks are also urgent, but typically they’re not. When we focus on important activities we operate in a responsive mode, which helps us remain calm, rational, and open to new opportunities.
  2. Urgent activities demand immediate attention, and are usually associated with achieving someone else’s goals. They are often the ones we concentrate on and they demand attention because the consequences of not dealing with them are immediate.Urgent tasks put us in a reactive mode, one marked by a defensive, negative, hurried, and narrowly-focused mindset.
I think one should clearly a) Focus on Important & Urgent, b) spend time at Important but not Urgent, c) clear the “noise” and work on Urgent only at will and in order for them not to create something of negative importance in the end and d) clear out the rest!
