Choose priorities and plan time · S2.3

Choose one priority

Several tasks are competing for your attention.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

1. List up to three things asking for your attention.
2. Choose one by considering its deadline, importance, and what you have energy for.
3. Write the first action for that task and put the other tasks somewhere you can return to.

An example

“I have three errands. Collecting my prescription has a deadline, so I will check the opening hours first.”

Reflect

What helped you choose, and what still needs a place in your plan?

Next time

Check the list again after the first task, or if the situation changes.
