“The real measure of any time management technique is whether or not it helps you neglect the right things.”
By Oliver Burkeman in his book Four Thousand Weeks.
Four Thousand Weeks is one of the best books I have read and brings to light how little time we have in life and how unreliable it can be to assume we have more time.
I like this quote because it hits on a topic many ignore in time management. It is as important to understand what can wait as it is to know what is urgent.
As you look at your task list for the day consider what you can neglect as much as you consider what needs to be done.
