Isolate - Law of Focus for PC

Einstein's law of focus states that "energy flows where attention goes." This means that whatever you focus your attention on, you will give energy to, and it will expand in your life. If you focus on negative thoughts or distractions, your energy will be drained, and you will become less productive and effective in achieving your goals.

On the other hand, if you focus on positive thoughts and actions, you will attract positive energy, which will help you achieve your goals and make a positive impact on the world.

How to Use:

There are three columns: professional, personal (family, friends, etc.), and extracurricular (side projects, personal goals, etc.). List everything you're doing in each category. Each category has two sub-categories Rapid and Important.

Important: List of tasks with utmost importance (and hopefully also provide the greatest return).

Rapid: List of tasks that you should do, today or soon, to avoid suffering any real consequences.

Tasks on Hold: Tasks which you can stop doing today without any real consequences.

Look at the Rapid tasks list and create a one- to three-week plan to complete them (or escape from them). Maybe that will mean not working on the starred projects for a short period of time, but that's OK. Think of this step as weeding. When Rapid tasks list is completed, focus on the two or three important things that remain in each category — and be ruthless about not adding any new items to the list, at least for a while. Just work the list. Eventually, you'll be unable to resist the temptation to take on new projects. Goal-scope creep is inevitable for people who expect a lot from themselves. Somewhere along the way, you'll have to go through the whole exercise again.
