I am still puzzled when it comes to priotization sometimes.

I place tasks on two axis, importance and urgence. I try to measure importance according to the context (revenue, brand reputation, user retention, growth, etc) and urgency according to the blast radius or the impact. A major outage or a high visibility feature stand out immediately.

Also, I use a variation of the Eisenhower 4D matrix to decide and delegate where necessary, but more importantly delete noise.

I unblock others asap. I go through my email attempting to reach inbox zero and applying a lax version of GTD and OHIO, but with a 5 minutes rule and action items on emails.

And yet, I admire people like you Ami that sometime just instictively know what is paramount for future achievements. I truly envy that ability and I wish I could master it one day…

Great article, thanks for sharing. Just curious - whats happens to smaller ideas. Those ideas need engagement and eventually adoption if the win is justified. No?
