{"product_id":"eisenhower-matrix-priority-planner","title":"Eisenhower Matrix Priority Planner Spreadsheet","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Eisenhower matrix spreadsheet does the part most priority tools skip: it adds up what each quadrant is costing you. It is for anyone with too much on the list who wants to see, in hours, where the week is actually going, including people who reach for an ADHD planner because a plain to do list stopped working.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease read:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a tracker tool only, not financial, tax, legal, medical or any other professional advice or advisory service. It records and calculates what you enter; you are solely responsible for checking all figures, rates, dates and results and for every decision you make. By purchasing, downloading or using it, you accept these terms (your statutory consumer rights are not affected).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo questions, and the quadrant follows\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor each task you answer only two things: is it urgent, and is it important. The urgent important logic does the rest. Do First, Schedule, Delegate or Drop is calculated from those two yes\/no columns and color-coded, so nothing lands in the wrong box because it was dragged there by mistake.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoom for 60 tasks in the matrix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo First in red, Schedule in blue, Delegate in amber, Drop in gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEight areas for every task: health, money, home, work, learning, people, admin and fun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe areas matter more than they look. They let you notice when every Do First item is work and nothing at all is health.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHours per quadrant, across the top\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdd the minutes each task takes and the priority matrix totals all four quadrants in hours, right along the top of the sheet. That is the figure that changes how a week gets planned. In the worked example, the Drop quadrant alone is eating 350 minutes a week, time spent on things that were already judged not worth doing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTasks, Today and the dashboard\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce a task has been decided, it moves into the rest of the workbook.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTasks:\u003c\/strong\u003e a task tracker for up to 250 tasks, organized by area and priority\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToday:\u003c\/strong\u003e the day's list, put together for you\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDashboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e reads the matrix and the task list together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStart Here and Setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e a short walk through setup, and where your areas live\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA filled copy and a blank one\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou get the planner filled in with eighteen real tasks, including that costly Drop quadrant, so you can see how it behaves before typing anything.
