Partially, yes! - And partially about priorities. So, you're doing whatever sequence is better. It's a general case of the example you mention: With one permutation (yours), you can get everything done. With another permutation (relax first, meeting prep later) - you might be leaving the prep for the last minute. There's some cases when the first permutation is better - when you have enough energy, say, and the meeting is important. There's other cases when the second permutation is better - when, say, you're already low on energy and the meeting isn't that important - so you're prioritising relaxing. There's more examples on the linked page[0] An example of neither delayed gratification, nor priorities: Permutation 1: Accusing someone of spewing non-sense, then understanding what they really meant. Permutation 2: Understanding what they really meant, and then, if necessary, accusing them of spewing nonsense. Permutation 2 as a habit leads to better outcomes. Mostly.
