The Eisenhower Matrix, also known as the Time Management Matrix, is a tool for organizing and prioritizing the severity of task’s Urgency and Importance. The Eisenhower Matrix is a 2-by-2 cell matrix, where each cell signifies the priority and order that a sequence of tasks should be taken care of.
This method is named after Dwight D. Eisenhower, the 35th president of the United States, who was know for being a highly effective leader both in the military and in Government.
The Four Quadrants

The first quadrant, in the top left of the matrix, is called the “Do First” quadrant. The tasks assigned to this quadrant signify both their Importance and their Time-sensitivity. These tasks typically have an upcoming deadline, as well as severe consequences if postponed. However, these tasks can also be surprises from an external source, requiring a crisis-level response.
