I'm a bit confused. What are "early tasks"? -- is this just another way of saying "urgent tasks"?

And where it says, "first task on the list", does that actually mean "the most urgent task on the list"? I'm not sure if it's referring to first in order of list position, or first by order of most-urgent to least-urgent.

Josh! It means "first in order of list position". Note that this quote from Mark is intended to "ensure that the early tasks on your list get actioned" Well, clearly, if you only action really urgent items as you work on your FV list, then you will very, very soon find yourself back at the oldest item on your list. This is the the point of the strategy.

Got it. Thanks!
