The prompt

Help me prioritize this task list using the impact/effort 2×2 matrix. My tasks: [paste your task list] For each task, rate: - Impact (1-3): how much does it move the needle? - Effort (1-3): how much time/energy does it require? Then sort them into four quadrants: - Quick wins (high impact, low effort) — DO FIRST - Strategic (high impact, high effort) — SCHEDULE - Fill-ins (low impact, low effort) — DO WHEN FREE - Drop (low impact, high effort) — CONSIDER SKIPPING
