The 3/3/3 method is a time management technique introduced by Oliver Burkeman, author of "Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals." The method involves spending three hours on the most important current project, three hours on smaller tasks, and three hours on maintenance activities every normal working day[1][2][3]. Here are some steps to apply the 3/3/3 method:
1. Define a specific goal for the progress you aim to make on your most important project that day.
2. Spend three hours on your most important project.
3. Spend three hours on smaller tasks, such as emails or phone calls.
4. Spend three hours on maintenance activities, such as delegating or providing feedback[3].

I find the must, should, can plan technique a little more useful. One critical task you must do that day, 3 important tasks you should do that day, 6 nice to do tasks you can do that day
