In the mid 1950s, Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969), the 34th President of the United and a five-star general during World War II, first presented an executive organizing method that helped him prioritize and tackle the many challenges and tasks he faced as the Leader of the Free World. “I have two kinds of problems, the urgent and the important,” he said. “The urgent are not important and the important are never urgent.” He divided his tasks into four categories based on that observation. Now you organize your paperwork the Eisenhower way using these three handy leather clips—and deposit unimportant, not-urgent tasks in the ‘circular file.’ Explore the Eisenhower Matrix Collection for more organizing accessories.
