Important But Not Urgent (IBNU)

I've been thinking about the phrase, "I want to hit the ground running," and how that's kind of how many of us try and start the year. I know that's how I felt - and honestly, in that first week of the year, I was doing great… but then I got covid. That really threw a snag into things.

With ADHD we tend to like to go fast with things; we don't want to wait around. But that's usually not actually our best strategy. Going from one urgent task to the next can keep us motivated, but it can make it hard to get to anything that isn't urgent.

In today's episode, we're going to be exploring how we use urgency as a drive to get more done but how we also need to learn to make time for all those important but not urgent tasks.

  2. We often use deadlines to motivate ourselves into doing the important things, but living deadline to deadline only allows us to work on things that at urgent and let's many things that are important but not urgent fall by the wayside.
  3. Using accountability is a great way for us to follow through with our plans to complete all of our important but not urgent tasks. We can do this either through creating artificial deadlines or through co-working.
