Or: “How to prioritize what to learn?”
-
Action Priority matrix (Impact/Effort) score?
-
Eisenhower matrix (Importance/Urgency)?
-
both?
-
how to incorporate urgency?
-
I think I like the idea of Effort + Urgency (short term value) + Impact (long term value)

make sure to credit all the formulas below with name + link of where I found them
Urgency score formula
# Lower is better (more urgent)
if(prop("Urgency") == "high", 1, if(prop("Urgency") == "medium", 2, 3))Impact score formula
# Lower is better (more impact)
if(prop("Impact") == "high", 1, if(prop("Impact") == "medium", 2, 3))Effort score formula
# Lower is better (less effort)
if(prop("Effort") == "low", 1, if(prop("Effort") == "medium", 2, 3))Priority score formula
# Lower means higher priority
prop("Urgency Score") * 2 + prop("Impact Score") + prop("Effort Score") - 3Priority formula
# Lower is higher priority
# 👌, 👁, 👀, 🕺, 👑, 🐰, 🌱, 💥, 🥁, 🚀, 🚦, 🚧, 📣, 📢, 💭,
if(prop("Priority Score") == 1, "🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨", if(prop("Priority Score") == 2, "🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥", if(prop("Priority Score") == 3, "🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰🐰", if(prop("Priority Score") == 4, "🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀", if(prop("Priority Score") == 5, "🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇", if(prop("Priority Score") == 6, "🏆🏆🏆🏆", if(prop("Priority Score") == 7, "⭐⭐⭐", if(prop("Priority Score") == 8, "☕️☕️", "😴"))))))))Ruthless prioritization notes
- How to prioritize projects differs from how to prioritize tasks within projects
- Prioritizing between projects = A rigorous process to solve the puzzle: What will my team invest in next?
- Prioritizing tasks within a project = A ruthless mindset to determine: Is this absolutely necessary to do?
