I have my own bespoke approach to tackling TODOs.

I look at the amount of time I have available before my next hard stop.

I look at my TODO list and look for things that are urgent.

But first, I look for the smallest time-sensitive things that will be easy to tackle.

As I finish each of those, they give me a "kick" of energy that helps me get up the activation energy hump of the bigger tasks.^[bz]

A Stanford professor apparently calls this "structured procrastination"^[ca], when you chain the "kicks" of completing smaller tasks like this.

I'd love my calendar to sort my TODOs like this.

This is something Google Calendar will never do.
