Operational prioritization (task triage) : 1. Accept some tasks that some tasks will not get done. 2. Do the task that takes the least time to complete. The fastest task. No matter what the task is. 3. Do the task that takes the next least time to complete. 4. Repeat this again and you've reduced the number of tasks and gotten closer to a manageable number of tasks.

Easier said than done. Doing the fastest tasks first isn't always helpful, especially if they are not as important as a bigger one. And urgency plays a role too such as different deadlines. Also, it's not so easy to see what a fast task is because 1) often you have not done it before and so eastimation is horribly inaccurate and 2) you could break down almost any task into smaller ones (or sum up smaller ones into a bigger one) at will. Time management is difficult and ridden with useless advice. However, what's true is that you can't do everything and that it may help (but not always) to do fast tasks first just to get them off your mind.

@@casey-zd5mj I tend to have the opposite problem. With a daily stream of new tasks coming in, I know that I can feel good about myself by doing the next fastest task. It can seem like I'm getting a lot done. But this method can allow me to put off a big, important, difficult task for days or weeks. Having a hard task sitting on my to-do list for a long time can make it feel like a mental mountain to climb just getting started. One of the most embarrassing and shameful moments of my career occurred when I put off a difficult task while doing lots and lots of easier but less important ones until the deadline for that big one came and I had made almost no progress on it. I really dropped the ball. This advice is great if your task list has an actual end that can be reached in time enough to do serious work on the long-but-important task waiting for you at the end. And you can't be exhausted by the time you get there. Maybe, for some kinds of work, this method needs to be used on alternating days alongside "first, eat the frog."

There's definitely exceptions to the rule. If you know fully your tasks and that it'd be better for you to do one that is long, then you should do that. The rule should be used when you're overwhelmed with stuff to do, because in those situations you won't have a full grasp of all the tasks. In such an environment, it's best to not try to get a clear picture of all that is going on, because that'd take too much of your time. Simply start with the shortest task and go from there.

The next fastest thing will work provided the 'things' on your list are important and should be there. Prioritize and execute - yes, but also - know what is important, know your limits and stay within them as you establish your priorities.

In fact, needing to use this advice repeatedly should be seen as a sign that there's system design work to be done.

Key Takeaways: - Task saturation is where the number of tasks on your mind exceeds the number you're capable of comfortably dealing with. - Accept that some of the tasks you have ahead of you will not get done, period. - To recover from task saturation, do the task that is quickest to accomplish. Repeat this as many times as necessary to regain comfort with the number of tasks on the table. - The first clue to task saturation is feeling uncomfortable with the number of tasks. Don't trust emotion at this point - do the next fastest thing you can do. - To stay ahead of saturation, estimate the number of tasks you can comfortably manage, then reduce that number by two. When you have more tasks than that result ongoing, apply the recovery technique.

@5:35... That's huge, "reduce it by two" brilliant. Wish I heard this long ago before being the first to raise my hand in the past.

I absolutely suck at this. I can manage a LOT… or I used to be able to. I’m more prone to feeling overwhelmed now. I am very big picture and bite off too much sometimes considering I have lower energy than I did and I keep myself in an overwhelmed state… or a state of task saturation way too much of the time.

As a Dr, you cannot do this. For example: you have 2 patients waiting to be seen. You can see both in front of you. One looks pale, looking bad, and the other one is smiling and thought they saw a new dimple on their arm. The fastest task would be to see the dimple but you prioritize the severity of the sick patient first. You go on to the long complex task of the ill patient. You let the other patient wait till you make sure the complicated patient doesn’t die on you. The healthy patient is pissed off because nobody has seen them in 30 minutes… well, that’s what had to be done. This leads me to the conclusion: When everything is equal-> prioritize the fastest task. If not, prioritizing should not be decided upon speed of completion. What do you think?

Keyed. Thank you brother,

It's really interesting how I learned all of this just by doing retail for so long and having a limited amount of time to complete a bunch of tasks. I guess I had so much time to think about it that I was able to formulate this strategy naturally.

I think what's also instructive here with the vehicular example of reflexes, is this: those reflexes the mature driver (now) has, were learned over years of non-stressed driving (Royce Gracie explained this to me live in 1995 at a seminar he was hosting, it's a famous talk he gives at seminars during the headlock escapes (and everyone is usually trying to kill each with strength) and he brings up the "smoove is fast" from his first time on the gun range with a pro coach.

6:33 I learned this from my IFR training when I was trying to learn instrument flying for airplanes. A common scenario for the IFR pilot where task saturation easily occurs is getting ready to land, for example... setting up the approach, talking to ATC, flying the aircraft, maintaining situational awareness of where I physically am right now and where other traffic is right now, getting the current weather for the airport I'm flying into, briefing the approach (I brief on the ground before the flight now), and verifying that i am getting the performance I'm expecting. When all of those things are slamming into you at once you have to begin prioritizing what to do right now, and what to do 10 seconds from now. We break it down into Aviate, Navigate, Communicate which means anything related to keeping positive control over the aircraft is ALWAYS numero UNO! After that is handled we thing about where we are, where we're going, and where everyone else is, then we can start talking to ATC. Hearing you put that process directly into words was definitely eye opening as if someone asked me "How do you deal with task saturation?" I really wouldn't have been able to answer, but now I can. Thank you.

I feel saturated at work. I constantly feel like I need to sacrifice quality in order to complete the tasks I'm given, and I'm a recovering perfectionist so i appreciate this video because I'd love to learn how to better manage my time and tasks.

You're preaching to an ADHD choir. Haha. A choir that keeps endlessly sweeping and cleaning the office while major projects pile up in the backlog.

I love this format and intro. Sets my mood right.

Thank you. Your advice applies exactly to me and my life.

This is helpful. Thx!

Fantastic advice! I subscribed to your site because of it

Thank you for the knowledge! I appreciate this as it helps me regain my brings after my car wreck.

Yeah. I like it. Good advice. Thank you.

Thank you for this information! I feel more at peace already.

Single best thing I've heard in a long while

Great advice.

I learned this concept in mountain biking from a young age. It’s gotten me to be able to safely do major evasive and recovery moves in semi trucks.

I have done this the last 2 days and literally ALL of my laundry is washed AND put away (after 3 months), bed and bedroom cleaned, half of my junk boxes sorted and condensed, litter boxes washed and refilled, and a few other things...WITH 8-9 hours of sleep, naps/rest breaks, 3 cooked meals, movie marathons, and 😉 -- all after waking up at 11am both days. I have done this exact list for each day, btw. This method is life changing!!!! Thank you P.s. it feels sooooo good to sleep in a cleaner house

This was great. Loved the analogy.

Absolutely so helpful. I will apply this to everything I do now.

Kind of like the debt snowball for tasks. I like it

Liked and subscribed!😊

This why I have do list , more inefficient use of time is getting caught up on your list and have no idea about what I need to do next .

So helpful and well-conveyed. Truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge here!. So helpful and well-conveyed. Truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge here!.

man this is gold. It'd be great to learn of any goal saturation management / recovery systems. essentially "long-term" tasks. I would imagine it could be similar to this.

man this one is great

Oh dear, my task threshold is -1 🤣

Thank you ❤

There is some serious holes in this logic. Firstly, my task threshold is -1 according to 1 minus 2. Also, 6:48 doesn't make sense. If people could ignore the head-trash as you name it then people wouldn't be overwhelmed by task saturation in the first place. It's the fact that you are overwhelmed that makes it such that you can't prioritise and organise. How do you explain that? You can't simple say "ignore being overwhelmed when you're overwhelmed" as an argument to dealing with being overwhelmed.

you are invaluable thank you

Did you just say “irregardless?” Love your podcasts.
