INSIGHT

Design Your Week From A Blank Slate

  • An ideal week is a blank-slate template to place what matters before obligations and urgent items.
  • Start with vision, values, and priorities to schedule important but non-urgent activities first.
INSIGHT

Protect The 'Boulders' First

  • Important but non-urgent activities get neglected if we prioritize only urgencies, causing long-term damage.
  • Scheduling those 'boulders' prevents relationships, health, and growth work from burning down later.
ADVICE

Label Tasks B/BR/P To Prioritize

  • Label daily tasks as B (boulders), BR (big rocks), or P (pebbles) to train your brain to prioritize effectively.
  • Use these markers to decide where to schedule tasks and avoid squeezing boulders into scraps of time.
