Urgent vs. Important
Important & Urgent Important Not Urgent
And the way you do that is by having a bigger yes burning inside. The enemy of the best is often the good.
― Stephen R. Covey, author of The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People
“You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage—
pleasantly, smilingly, non-apologetically, to say “no” to other things.

Effective time management is not about making your work schedule more elastic. It is about creating elegance through structure and boundaries. It is about
making tough choices, saying no and focusing on quality of work rather than quantity.
