Four tricks to help you prioritize important, big tasks when the short ones feel tempting

For some of us, short tasks tend to be prioritized first, before we choose to focus on the more extensive tasks. As a consequence, important tasks may be put off longer than we would wish they were.

In this episode, the 543rd, I share how to get important tasks done well in advance.

Do you have some other trick you apply to help yourself prioritize things you are reluctant to do? Perhaps you resort to the classic method of breaking the task down into smaller steps to make it easier to get through. Or, something completely different? Write to me and let me know. I'm curious to know what works for you.
