MIT Method

Brian Tracy's task prioritization technique where tasks are labeled A (must do with serious consequences), B (should do with mild consequences), C (nice to do with no consequences), D (delegate), or E (eliminate).

A simple yet powerful productivity technique from 1918 where users write down six most important tasks each evening, prioritize them, and work through them sequentially the next day. Charles M. Schwab paid consultant Ivy Lee $25,000 (equivalent to $400,000 in 2015) after seeing dramatic productivity improvements from this deceptively simple method.

Priority-setting technique by Brian Tracy categorizing tasks into five levels (A-E) based on importance and consequences, focusing effort on must-do tasks first.

Productivity technique where you identify 3 Most Important Tasks (MITs) each day and complete them first, ensuring high-impact work gets priority attention before less critical activities.

TickTick's built-in implementation of the Eisenhower Matrix that automatically plots tasks on a chart based on urgency and importance, helping users visualize priorities and make better decisions about what to work on first.

A daily planning productivity system where you commit to accomplishing 1 Major Task, 3 Medium Tasks, and 5 Small Tasks each day, providing a realistic and balanced approach to daily goal-setting that prevents overwhelm while ensuring meaningful progress.
