I had a task that I needed to work on today for church and found this cool online test:
Franklin Covey : What Matters Most – Urgency Analysis
It looks like I ended up being in the Quadrant II group which says the following:
“This is the “important, but not urgent” quadrant of optimal effectiveness. It is where you want to be Quadrant II is where you plan, prepare, prevent crises, clarify your values, build relationships, renew yourself, empower others, and lead your life in the direction of your choice.
If you focus on Quadrant II activities, your life will be one of vision, perspective, discipline, control and achievement. It will be balanced and fulfilling with fewer crises and less stress.
A suggestion to make a good thing even better:
Unless you have perfected your time management skills, there are still times when you find yourself slipping into quadrants III and IV. By converting those times into Quadrant II activities, you can do the preparation and planning necessary to eliminate many of the stressful urgencies of the Quadrant I activities in your life.”
I’m kinda surprised because I always thought I was more of the crazy-stressed-get-outta-way-lady…. I have no idea why I’m complaining
I should be happy with the results!
