One of the fastest ways to drift into survival mode is by making decisions based on urgency instead of importance. The Eisenhower Matrix helps you slow down, sort your tasks, and protect your energy for what’s actually aligned with God’s assignment for you—not just what’s screaming the loudest.
When you filter your week this way, you start cutting out the busywork that drains you, making room for the things that bring lasting fruit and peace.
Watch the 2 minute video below to learn the strategy, then put the strategy into action:
Homework
1. Map your week by answering:
- Do First: What 1–3 things must be completed this week to stay in alignment with God’s call?
- Schedule: What 1–2 important things have I been putting off that need to go on my calendar?
- Delegate: What urgent tasks could I hand to someone else instead of carrying myself?
- Eliminate: What can I remove because it drains my energy or isn’t aligned with my values?
