Decisions are easy to make if you are clear on your priorities. Also, clear priorities lead to productivity. It's when people respond to the urgent more than the important that things go off track. Or, when everything is important, nothing is important. When everything is urgent, nothing is urgent.
So do yourself a favor. Sit down in a quiet moment (even if you have to force the time) and make a clear list of the priorities for every major part of your life and for each project on which you are working. Once equipped, begin scheduling your time accordingly. When things come up, refer back to your priority list to determine if they are worthy of immediate response, delayed response, or no response. After a while, when your priorities are clear enough in your head, you will be able to handle this sorting process without referring to your list.
Living your life by your priorities and scheduling your tasks accordingly is the launch pad for massive productivity. The compounding effect of this, over time, will blow your mind. Anything less is slovenly, and rest assured, your best competition will be the one with the clearest, most focused priorities. Don't give them a free advantage.
