Great way to prioritize work! I love this explanation of the Eisenhower Matrix. Urgent and Important: Clear deadlines and consequences...

A successful executive told me he would start every day asking what’s THE MOST VALUABLE work I can do right now. Continually asking this question ensured successful outcomes and protected him from overwork and exhaustion. 

I recently reflected on tasks that were taking a lot of effort but not delivering value. Prioritizing tasks that fall into the "High Effort, High Impact" and "Low Effort, High Impact" categories ensures that your energy is spent where it can generate the most value.

Fantastic questions to help brainstorm a problem. Try it!
