There are many viewpoints. Let’s define education as the process of optimizing ourselves and others to maximize our ability to be productive in every endeavor we pursue. Productivity is not just something we do for a boss or company in exchange for money. It is also what we do for ourselves, our family and friends when we have projects to accomplish. We can achieve our goals quickly or slowly, and often the difference is simply knowing a better way or having a better tool. Sometimes it is a matter of knowing which goals have the most meaning and knowing which goals to triage. [...] […] What is education? There are many viewpoints.

If you have a cold, or are exhausted from a tough week, invest the time in resting up instead of rushing out to fulfil some commitment. Steve Pavlina has a nice post on triage for life about what you commit your time to which fits very well into this. I know at the time it might seem like the most important thing in the world but if it leaves you worse off why are you commiting energy to it?

As Steve Pavlina puts it succinctly in his article Triage, all of us only have so much time on our hand, and in order for us to gain the most out of our time, we need to ensure that we handle only the vital tasks. Some of these vital tasks may not look urgent, but without our attention and effort, it will never come to fruition. The goal of triage is therefore to ensure that we prioritize efforts that will give us the biggest bang for the buck. I believe most of us in the software industry can readily agree to such assessment, except I am a bit puzzled with the declarations that these vital tasks actually are not urgent, because in software, these tasks are.
