Principlev1

Type along both urgency and importance dimensions

Type along both urgency and importance dimensions simultaneously to counteract the mere urgency effect, creating explicit categories for important-but-not-urgent items that would otherwise be chronically deprioritized.

Why This Is a Principle

Derives from hyperbolic discounting (Humans discount future rewards hyperbolically rather than) and attention prioritizing immediacy over importance (Human attentional systems evolved to prioritize signals with). Prescribes two-dimensional classification to override systematic cognitive bias.
