Shout out to Dylan for self-advocating and using his resources!
Shout out to Destiny for an awesome windshield check!
Week 4 is due today. Remember that our weeks are due on Mondays at midnight.
Ready, learn, lead!
Tip for Quadrant 1: Think about it, how many real emergencies do you really have each day or week? Be careful of what's you define as an actual emergency. It's easy to make other people's problems our emergency! Often times, quadrant 1 'emergencies' are entirely preventable if we planned more wisely.
Tip for Quadrant 2: Procrastinating on quadrant 2 tasks can easily make them quadrant 1 emergencies. Handle them while they're small to feel in-control, clear, and confident about your schedule.
Tip for Quadrant 3: Ask yourself this,...when you're on high alert in quadrant 3, whose handling your business?
Tip for Quadrant 4: The solution to this quadrant: plan for down-time. If you love watching tv, great! Be sure to watch or record your 'favorite' shows, set a 15 minute timer for social media, and have 'unscheduled' time for being spontaneous. Because most things that 'end-up' here become time wasters don't serve you. Think about it - Do you ever really feel good when you've wasted time? It's much better to make room for your fun, rest, and downtime each day, so you're not feeling like a quadrant 4 zombie!
