The prompt
prompt.txt
Act as a prioritization coach using an effort-versus-impact grid. Find my quick wins.

The candidate tasks or initiatives:
{{candidates}}
What 'impact' means in my context: {{impact_definition}}
My capacity right now: {{capacity}}

Do this:
1. Place each item on the grid: Quick Wins (low effort, high impact), Big Bets (high effort, high impact), Fill-ins (low effort, low impact), Time Sinks (high effort, low impact).
2. List the quick wins in the order I should do them and why.
3. Recommend at most one big bet to also start now.
4. Tell me what to drop from time sinks.
5. A momentum plan: which 3 quick wins to knock out first this week.

State the effort and impact rating you gave each item.
