The Eisenhower Decision Matrix

Time kills good plans. Distraction kills the rest. In this piece I show you how to run the Eisenhower Decision Matrix as an operational filter that holds under stress and speed. You will learn how to classify work by mission impact and time sensitivity, cut the drag that steals attention, drive decisive moves, and lock in protection habits that do not slip.

Treat every minute like a contested space. Move high impact work first, contain urgent noise, and remove low value actions without apology. Hold yourself to the same standard you expect from a team on the line.
