Our character is revealed when we choose between our Quadrant 2 (Important / Not Urgent) priorities and the pressures of the moment.
We are effective when we align our choices with our mission, roles, and goals.
- Think of a situation in which you find it hard to stay true in the moment of choice.
- Figure out a tactic you can use to achieve your Quadrant 2 priorities in that moment.
Ask Yourself:
- What pulls me away from following through on my Big Rocks (KPI's / Key Actions)?
- How do I feel when I give in to the pressures and neglect my true priorities?
"As you go through your week...the urgent but not important will threaten to overpower the important Quadrant 2 activities you planned. Use your independent will and maintain your integrity to the truly important." - Stephen Covey
