First things first

Activity doesn’t equal productivity.

What you do and what order you do it in matters.

Here are two simple heuristics to help determine both:

To determine what, consult your values: what do you care about the most really?

To determine order, consult time: what will matter in the long run? Prioritize those things first.

None of this is essential, of course — it just depends on how much serendipity you’re willing to tolerate.
