【What kind of time management tool is Priori?】

Priori is a time management tool that deeply implements the four-quadrant rule (also known as the "Eisenhower Matrix") on mobile devices. Facing the endless work and life pressure, Priori hopes to minimize the user's burden of using "to-do lists" at the visual and operational levels through an effective but minimalist design language, and at the same time use the four-quadrant rule to focus energy on the most valuable things.

Few important things are urgent, and few urgent things are important. Give yourself a chance and let Priori work efficiently with you.


【What is the four-quadrant rule of time management?】

It is a time management theory proposed by the famous management master Stephen Covey, the author of the bestseller "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People". The most important content of this theory is to divide things into four quadrants according to importance and urgency: important and urgent, important but not urgent, unimportant but urgent, unimportant and not urgent.


【How to classify items into the four quadrants?】

When evaluating a thing, the standard of importance is judged according to "benefit value", and the urgency is determined according to "time deadline". When there are already a lot of to-do items on our to-do list, we need to correctly classify the priorities of the items. The suggestions given by Priori are:

1) Add two columns behind all to-do items, namely "importance" and "urgency";

2) First distinguish between "heavy" and "light" for the items, and classify all items as important or unimportant according to the standard of "benefit value";

3) Then distinguish between "urgent" and "not urgent" for the items, and classify all items as urgent or not urgent according to the standard of "time deadline".

With just a few simple steps, all to-do items can be classified and grouped into the corresponding four quadrants.


【How should the classified four-quadrant items be executed?】

Let's first understand the 4D solution for the time management four quadrants:

1. The first quadrant (important and urgent): Do it now

The first quadrant is the crisis quadrant. In this quadrant, items are not only urgent but also important. Keeping an eye on the first quadrant will lead to great stress, mental exhaustion and other related problems. Covey believes that people who focus on the first quadrant for a long time will only find relief in the fourth quadrant. Because the items in the fourth quadrant are neither important nor urgent, and humans prefer to complete these things.

2. The second quadrant (important but not urgent): Do it in a planned way

According to Covey, "The second quadrant is the core of effective personal management." Truly effective people will pay attention to the first quadrant, but focus on the second quadrant. In this state, we will focus on opportunities, think preventively, and at the same time reserve enough time to focus on truly important matters.

3. The third quadrant (unimportant but urgent): Delegate it to others

The main reason most people find time insufficient is that they take on too much work that doesn't belong to them. We should recognize that it is the source of our busyness and blindness. For the things in this quadrant, it is best to delegate them to others or reduce the investment in such affairs by politely refusing.

4. The fourth quad
