  • PeterPTB, on 04/19/2008, -0/+0Really enjoyed this one. It certainly isn't a new message - effective people focus on important rather than simply urgent tasks - but the article is well written and has some great advice for putting this message into practice.

  • JuiceofChampion, on 04/20/2008, -0/+1Really good article. So many people focus and dedicate a huge amount of time on things that matter so little. Our mainstream media is ridicuolus, it is always about who did this or who did that, who really cares what one person in Hollywood or one famous sports star really does!
