Ask HN: How do you manage non urgent new problems?
I used to make a list of things that I needed to do and stacked new questions or problems under my list. Over the last week I tried addressing the most recently discovered non urgent problems first and it’s been feeling more productive. What do you do? I used a slightly modified version of Stephen Covey's time management matrix (urgent vs non-urgent, important vs non–important). My modification is that things that fall into the not-urgent/not-important bucket get retained if they're educational, otherwise I discard them.
