Prioritize your time wisely

There's always something we could do. As a result, if you're not deliberate about how you divide and spend your time, you can easily feel overwhelmed or get caught up working on the wrong things.

Prioritizing your time wisely means that you

• Spend most of your time on the most important and impactful responsibilities associated with your primary role(s).
• Are mindful not to let the urgent crowd out the important.
• Prioritize documenting your work so it can be handed off to others when needed.

People who practice this responsibility well set aside explicit time for it. One way of doing this is through the concept of check-ins.
