5. • This is because your brain is
physically incapable of handling
multiple active tasks at the same
time.
• Only one zone of the cortex of your
brain can be active at a time. If
different zones have to be active
simultaneously, they just take
turns and never get active
together.

Background tasking
- exercising while listening to music/watching TV
- starting a load of laundry while answering an email

Urgency
How soon it matters
Significance
How long it matters

8. 1. Can the task
be eliminated?

9. If I took the group, it would make my day miserable and overloaded.
Yesterday one of the teachers who is also my friend asked
me to cover her group. My natural response was to agree.
But then I realized that I had already scheduled a training
session for this day.
I had two choices:
1) to take the group and suffer out of guilt
2) to eliminate out of guilt and stay sane

10. Our Director of Studies Alona is organising an in-house seminar for
teachers. She wants Lida to deliver this training session. Lida is an
experienced teacher and teacher trainer. Alona knows that Lida has
lots of ideas to share with colleagues, but still has planned two/three
meetings to help Lida prepare.
One meeting is OK, but sometimes you can replace the meetings
with an email or conduct a brief meeting. Why to waste the time of
both if Lida can easily do it herself without any help?
1. Is there a need for conducting the meetings?
2. If the meetings are necessary, how to minimize the time spent?

11. 1. Can the task
be eliminated?2. Can the task
be automated?

19. 1. Can the task
be eliminated?2. Can the task
be automated?
3. Can the task
be delegated?

20. The fears that prevent people from delegating:
3. Can the task be
delegated?
● I can do it faster myself
● They won't do it as well as I can
● It takes too long to train them
● I’ve tried this before and failed
Give yourself the permission of being imperfect
and realize that 80% done by someone else is
better than 100% done by you.

21. Our YL Academic Director Lida organised a mock ZNO test for 6
teenage groups at Grade. She:
● Find (hire) the right people
• gave clear instructions and materials to three invigilators who conducted
the test;
• found teachers who checked the tests and provided students with feedback.
She gave them the scales to check writing and answer keys for the test
part;
• created a Telegram group to make the communication faster
and more effective
To successfully delegate you need to learn how to:
● Give clear instructions and create easy-to-follow steps
● Control the delivery of the task

22. 1. Can the task
be eliminated?2. Can the task
be automated?
3. Can the task
be delegated?
4. Can the task
wait?

23. Procrastinate (v) - to keep delaying something that
must be done, often because it is unpleasant or
boring
3. Can the task
wait?
Can procrastination be
positive?
Can we take advantage of it?

24. Discover your
Einstein
window
For me, it is early in the morning. That is when
my brain functions at its highest level.
For example, at this time I am the most
productive in terms of decision-making,
problem-solving and generating ideas.
I plan my day considering this. For example, if I
need to prepare a training session, it is easier
and less time-consuming than doing it late at
night.

26. B) Automation / Delegation
3) Respond to an invitation to play
Mafia with colleagues on Friday
evening
1) Send newsletters with a
reminder to complete the
feedback forms within the next
week
2) Plan a 6:30 PM Wednesday lesson
(prepare handouts, plan the lesson)
C) Planned procrastination
A) Elimination

27. B) The Two-Minute Rule
2) Complete the Google
Classroom with homework
C) Just do it!
A) Delegation
1) Call a student who complained
about their teacher
3) Organise a development
session for inexperienced
teachers

28. Multiplying our time isn’t about doing things as
quickly as possible. Rather, it’s about giving
ourselves the permission to eliminate,
automate, delegate and procrastinate — and
then to concentrate on what truly matters.
