I'm amusing myself again

Let's see if you can spot where I got bored while doing this open book quiz...
I. Describe the four quadrants - what is it and who spend their lives in each.
Quadrant I: is the important and urgent zone. That 10 page research paper that's worth 40% of your grade and is due on Thursday, but you've only just started reading your source material? Yeah, that's a quadrant I item. Procrastinators live in this quadrant.
Quadrant II: is where the important stuff isn't yet urgent. The term paper is due at the end of the semester, but, being a good quadrant II citizen, you've already read all the sources, prepared an outline and are building your argument in a thorough and diligent manner. Creators are the model quadrant II citizens.
Quadrant III:"Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player
that struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
and then is heard no more. It is a tale
told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
signifying nothing."
This is the busy-maker's quadrant, along with Victims, martyrs and Drama Kings and Queens. Everything is urgent, and nothing is actually important.
Quadrant IV: is a lovely place to visit every now and again. It's where there's no rush on anything, and nothing matters all that much anyway. Only workaholics avoid this quadrant, though slackers have made it their permanent residence.
