The idea
It might just be the oldest time-management tip in existence: to get the right things done, learn to prioritise. Label your to-do list with As, Bs and Cs, or use coloured felt-tip pens to separate the must-dos from the maybes… but it’s not always this easy to prioritise. Too often, everything feels important and, if you’ve simply got too much to do, prioritising won’t magically make things better. Above all, we are emotional beings, with energy levels that ebb and flow. So, when it all seems urgent and you can’t decide what to do, use these more human rules of thumb instead.
