Hierarchy of problems
Problem hierarchy is the ordering of difficulties according to importance, urgency, impact and solvability.
Definition
Hierarchization helps avoid dissipating energy on everything at once. It requires distinguishing root problems from symptoms, urgency from importance, and things that can be influenced from those that need to be monitored. This makes the action more strategic and less reactive.

Practice and life
Make a list of issues and rate each on a scale of 1-5 for impact, urgency and control. Start with a high-impact problem with a real scope of impact.
Common misunderstanding
It is a mistake to choose an issue just because it is the easiest or the most emotional. Priority should come from impact, not noise.
