EISENHOWER PRODUCTIVITY PLANNER

The Eisenhower productivity matrix helps you decide and prioritize tasks by urgency and importance, as well as which tasks to delegate and not do at all. Organize your to-dos and clear out unnecessary tasks with the help of this powerful planner:

  • Learn to analyze and categorize your tasks to do work that matters.
  • Get better at identifying work you can delegate so you can free up more time.
  • Make your workload more manageable and feel in control of everything you do.
ARTICLE OF THE WEEK
"Most managers are so busy with their daily responsibilities that they hardly have time to think about your growth, align your interests with the best opportunities or give you constant feedback to help you learn, improve and grow. Now, you can either waste your time wishing for a perfect work experience, complain about what your manager lacks or how unlucky you’ve been, obsess about how much better your life would be if only you had a manager who would do those things or you can get those things by taking the growth in your own hands. Instead of leaving it to your manager to give you the feedback that you need, ask your manager these 5 questions every month."

EXPLORE
"If you ask most well-intentioned people, they may be able to tell you where some of their biases lie. But we are not always aware of, or willing to talk about, all of our biases. So getting someone to drop their guard and own up to the negative attitudes that they may not be conscious of can be a lot more difficult. In any organization, the onus is on the leader to create an inclusive culture, and business leaders need to reflect on their own biases to be able to do so."

THINK
"As humans, we have a hardwired need for social connection—and we live happier, healthier, and longer lives when we’re closely connected to others. Yet, in today’s world, socializing is often seen as a luxury rather than a necessity, which is why many of us push it to the bottom of our priority lists. We squeeze it in only after work, family obligations, and chores are done. While the need for connection might be felt differently for each of us, depending on our personalities and preferences, we all need to invest time and energy into our relationships."

QUOTE TO REMEMBER
Success emerges from the quality of the decisions we make and the quantity of luck we receive. We can't control luck. But we can control the way we make choices.

― Chip Heath
