Purposedifferent
With many similar objects of differing economic significance, the method prioritizes effort by effect. It separates what needs regular steering from what rarely needs attention.It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped.After missions or project phases with unclear outcomes, the method makes visible what actually happened and what can be learned from it. It separates course, effect, and causes so experience turns into solid improvement.The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed.
