Drag and drop tasks between quadrants as priorities shift. The visual matrix layout shows your task distribution at a glance, making it immediately clear where you are spending too much time on non-essential work.
Export your prioritized matrix as an image or PDF for reference during your workday. Use the built-in suggestions to help classify tasks when you are unsure which quadrant they belong in.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Eisenhower Matrix?
The Eisenhower Matrix is a time management framework attributed to President Dwight Eisenhower. It categorizes tasks into four quadrants based on urgency and importance: Do First (urgent + important), Schedule (important, not urgent), Delegate (urgent, not important), and Eliminate (neither). It helps prioritize what truly matters over what merely feels pressing.
How do I know if a task is important or just urgent?
Important tasks contribute to your long-term goals, values, and mission. Urgent tasks demand immediate attention but may not matter in the long run. A ringing phone is urgent but may not be important. Strategic planning is important but rarely feels urgent. Ask: Will this matter in a week or month?
What should I do with Quadrant 4 tasks?
Quadrant 4 tasks (neither urgent nor important) should be eliminated or minimized. These include excessive social media browsing, unnecessary meetings, busywork, and time-wasting activities. Recognizing and removing these frees time for Quadrant 2 (important) work.
How often should I update my matrix?
Review and update daily — ideally at the start of each workday. Do a deeper review weekly to reassess priorities and ensure important long-term projects (Quadrant 2) are getting adequate attention. Tasks naturally shift quadrants as deadlines approach.
