<P> The "Eisenhower Method" stems from a quote attributed to Dwight D. Eisenhower: "I have two kinds of problems, the urgent and the important . The urgent are not important, and the important are never urgent ." </P> <P> Using the Eisenhower Decision Principle, tasks are evaluated using the criteria important / unimportant and urgent / not urgent, and then placed in according quadrants in an Eisenhower Matrix (also known as an "Eisenhower Box" or "Eisenhower Decision Matrix"). Tasks are then handled as follows: </P> <Ol> <Li> Important / Urgent quadrant are done immediately and personally e.g. crises, deadlines, problems . </Li> <Li> Important / Not Urgent quadrant get an end date and are done personally e.g. relationships, planning, recreation . </Li> <Li> Unimportant / Urgent quadrant are delegated e.g. interruptions, meetings, activities . </Li> <Li> Unimportant / Not Urgent quadrant are dropped e.g. time wasters, pleasant activities, trivia . </Li> </Ol> <Li> Important / Urgent quadrant are done immediately and personally e.g. crises, deadlines, problems . </Li>
