I am a founder at a startup with more on my to-do list than I can possibly get through. I applied lessons from Randy Pausch and Stephen Covey to create this prioritization tool. Thoughts?

This isn't a fair criticism in my opinion. Anybody who has a camera in their face all day can be made to look stupid. That even goes for the most practiced politicians. Even the best first time start-up CEO's require hundreds of run-through
