The following are examples for each quadrant:

Not important and not urgent. You have a book report to hand in at the end of the semester. It’ll take you 10 to 12 hours to read the book and 4 or 5 hours to write the report. You have 3 months and it’s worth 10% of your final grade.

You should get started as soon as possible so it doesn’t become urgent.

Not important but urgent. You have a quiz tomorrow but you haven’t reviewed anything. It’s worth 5% but you need every mark you can get.

You should have done this in-between other things when you had the time. Now you will feel stress and anxiety that could have easily been avoided.

Important but not urgent. You have a project that is worth 35% of your final mark. It’s due in a month and you estimate it will take you 20-25 hours to complete.

Once again, what you want to do is avoid rushing and trying to complete the project at the last minute. You want to scale down the tasks into smaller bites so that you can get started as soon as possible.

Important and urgent. You have a final exam in two days, it’s worth 70% of your final grade. You haven’t put in enough time –there is so much new material to cover you don’t know where to start. Panic starts to set in.

This is not where you want to be spending your time. You want to spend as much time as possible on important but not urgent issues. Of course, this takes planning and preparation...
