If you could add a view in Todoist to show the matrix, and the tasks within each quadrant, it would be amazing! This would be the icing on the cake for the methods you have shown.

I used to teach the Eisenhower Matrix as part of corporate training and have been using it for years in ToDoist. I do use the priority filters, but I also simulate the matrix by using the board view with four sections for each project (Important & Urgent, Important NOT Urgent, etc.). 👍

A very nice and concise explanation of this system. I like the Quadrant 2 part because it reminds you to schedule routine things. The quadrant 3 reminds you of things to delegate to others, such as yard work, housecleaning, or other things you don't like to do. Finally, I realize that quadrant 4 is for time wasters that I need to schedule, such as check email every night, only watch KZfaq on Saturday while doing laundry, etc. I guess this is why President Eisenhower could plan D-day and our US highway system. His plan could fit on a letter sized sheet of paper, folded to fit in a man's shirt pocket. Just a thought. Thanks for this video, and keep up the good work.

Breaking down tasks into urgent and important really woke me up to how I've been managing my time. The way you laid out the importance of focusing on long-term goals over immediate tasks was enlightening. I didn't realize how much time I was spending on Quadrant 4 activities. Identifying these as time wasters is the first step toward better time management. I'm motivated to cut down on these non-essential tasks!

Such a great recap of an important technique that I'm familiar with and yet seem to forget/ignore a lot. I use Todoist every day all day and I get satisfaction from checking things off but I need to do a better job with prioritizing and setting realistic completion dates. This will help. Thanks so much!

This might be the start of turning my life around! I cannot, for the life of me, write in my planner every day on delegating daily tasks. I just found out my brain works similarly to the Eisenhower Matrix. Thanks Naomi!

Thank you for this video! My coach has directed me to Eisenhower Matrix. The sad thing is I thought I understood it. After really paying attention to this video, I see why she saw my mentions of Eisenhower matrix as confused. I thought that I have been using my priorities to reflect the importance according to this method, but it seems like I quickly changed it to a whim instead of a method. Now I'll have to go through every project and subsection and ask myself some hard but simple questions to truly answer myself if those things are important at all or imposed from the outside world.

It's good to see a face on article I read since a couple of years now. I've already read the article you mention but watching this video was a fresh reminder. In fact, to be sure you follow this principle, I think you have to ask you a couple of times a day, at minimum twice in the morning and in the evening, if you really follow the rule of the matrix. And this remind you how much things are in the quadran 3. For so much time I was wondering why it could be urgent and non-important until I hear that it could be "urgent" for other and not for me. This completely change my way of seing this quadran and now I understand why the quadran is named "Delegate it". Thanks for this video :)

I split my todoist into more traditional todo lists such as personal tasks and then run projects out of it also such as build software x. I started to implement this and hit a barrier, is there an arguement that all tasks in a project are urgent/important as they need to be done in order to complete the project and now I am thinking of reverting.
