Sort tasks with the Eisenhower matrix

The prompt

Here is everything on my plate:

[PASTE TASKS]

Sort each task into the Eisenhower matrix: urgent and important, important but not urgent, urgent but not important, and neither. Explain the reasoning in one line each, then tell me what to do first, what to schedule, what to delegate and what to delete.

Pro tip: If everything lands in "urgent and important", ask the AI which deadlines are truly fixed.
