TLDR: Framework from book ‘Procrastinate on Purpose’ (combined with a bit of The General Patton Matrix).

Divide your To Do List into 5 categories:

1. Eliminate (tasks that are not urgent and not important) 

2. Automate (tasks that are repeated and can be eliminated/delegated by a rule) 

3. Delegate (tasks that are urgent but not important)- Note that it takes 15-minutes to delegate for every 1 minute of the task. 

4. Prioritise – Do first (urgent and important tasks) or Schedule (not urgent but important tasks)

5. Procrastinate – tasks you leave to ‘ripen’ (action) or ‘rot’ (eliminate)
