Marker 15: Not All That Is Important Is Urgent

Urgency is often the enemy of clarity.



Urgency Is Loud. Importance Is Quiet.
The world wants you to be reactive.
Your business can’t afford that.

Because when everything is urgent, you’ll never have the space to do deep work.
To lead with vision, think clearly, and grow something that actually lasts.

Not a Band-Aid. A permanent shield.


We Train People How to Interrupt Us

If you always jump, they’ll always shout.
If you always answer instantly, you’ll never finish anything that matters.

Urgency is often:

  • A symptom of poor planning

  • Someone else’s problem

  • A fire that only spreads if you fan it


Protect Your Priorities Like They're Oxygen

Build a system that:

  • Filters noise

  • Shields deep work

  • Refuses to confuse energy with impact

You can’t lead if you’re always reacting.
 Protect your priorities. Or they’ll vanish.
