Many of you may be familiar with Brian Tracy’s popular procrastination beating method “Eat that Frog” which also has a book by that name written by him. In this video he relates the task-planning method ABCDE to the Frog metaphor and shows us how to prioritize our To-Do lists.

The ABCDE Method in summary:
A Task: Absolutely must-do tasks: Frogs
B Task: Important tasks but mild consequences for non-completion: Tadpoles
C Task: Unimportant tasks – tasks that will have no consequence on your work life if you don’t do them
D Task: Tasks that you can delegate to others
E Task: Tasks that you can eliminate altogether
