My constant battle between what is urgent and what is important

[Michael K Gallagher]

Don't know about anyone else, but I feel like my personal daily battle is between doing what is urgent and fuels my raging undiagnosed ADHD, or what is actually important.

I've done a ton of work on this over the past almost 4 years, and still am nowhere that I think I need to be, but I'm at least getting to a level of awareness I don't think I ever had before and that is a win in my book.  

Came up with a little mental "que" or montra if you will the other day while driving to help me through those tough mental days, and wanted to share....

"act with urgency on what is important". 

IDK why but it really helped something something click for me mentally, so maybe it helps someone else too in the daily grind of the whirlwind.

Have you read The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson and Atomic Habits by James Clear? Above those two, scheduling and time blocking are usually where people are failing. Everything is on my schedule every day in a block of time (including shower). I can move the blocks, but the time in a day is finite. It is easier for me because I have basically the opposite of ADHD, but putting everything on Google Calendar and blocking out what you want to do each week usually starts to work wonders if someone sticks to it.
