I use exactly the same model and teach it to my managers when they complain about being too busy to get to the important stuff.
I found the model in Stephen Covey's 7 Habits - I think he calls it 'First Things First'.

Not heard this before, but I do like it and will try and apply it from today.

I promise you that this technique is extremely effective. After a very short time you find yourself thinking in the second quadrant all of the time and you start to become much more effective.
You also get fewer surprises and actually get time to think.

It's not been quite 30 years, but slightly more than 30 months and I'm still learning from you! Just reading this article makes me realise that I could do better, even with what I have to do today and tomorrow and next week. I will use this model myself and I will pass it on.
Cheers
