Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This simple planner is based on the Eisenhower Method as proposed by President Dwight Eisenhower.Organizing tasks using this method can increase productivity and reduce distractions.1. Tasks in Quadrant 1 are done immediately or given the highest priority.2. Tasks in Quadrant 2 are scheduled and done personally.3. Tasks in Quadrant 3 are delegated/delayed or moved to Quadrants 3 or 4.4. Tasks in Quadrant 4, being neither important nor urgent, are deleted.Another way to conceptualize the matrix is by priority. Quadrant 1 tasks are of the highest priority, while Quadrant 4 tasks are of extremely low priority.In addition to the matrices, this task planner also includes a simple To-Do list above each matrix. Included on the To-Do list are: reading, meditation, and exercise. Setting aside a moment each day to engage in these activities reduces stress and increases well-being.The reverse of each page is intentionally blank to provide space for notes or doodles.Dates are not included in this time management book, as there are ample calendars in the world. Rather, this book is intended to help you prioritize tasks and eliminate distractions. Thus, a matrix can carry over between days, or you could use multiple matrices in one day. For example, there can be a matrix for the day's tasks, another matrix for the month, and another for the year ahead.There is nothing fancy about this book. It is printed as a reasonably durable paperback with the intent that you can throw it into the recycle bin after filling it with tasks and completing those tasks.
