9. Respect yourself and your time
Divide all your commitments into 4 different buckets, based on their importance and urgency:
- Do now – things that are both important and urgent.
- Plan ahead – things that are important, but don’t require your immediate attention.
- Delegate – urgent issues that are not that important.
- Don’t do. Never – issues that are neither urgent, nor important, like taking that sales call for a product you’re not interested in buying or meeting over coffee with a person you have nothing to talk about.
