The idea is that you deal with the urgent/important as they come up, because that is just life, but must make sure that you have time to do the not urgent/important things because these are the things that help us develop and deal with the urgent/important things and perhaps even reduce their occurrence. The urgent/not important items should be questioned to ensure that they actually need to be done, and be done by you rather than anyone else, and the not urgent/not important things should be thrown in the bin. Anything that helps prevent that blind panic when something totally unexpected occurs that demands your immediate attention has got to be good!
