Look at the activities recorded daily and marked with a ?U? in the Activity Inventory, and the
ones marked Unplanned & Urgent on the To Do Today Sheet. By doing so, during the planning
phase you can assess your ability to identify the number and type of activity that?s most
effective in reaching a given objective. The greater the number of unplanned activities involved,
the greater the qualitative error in your initial estimate. So, you can measure the unplanned
activities done to attain a certain objective. Clearly, you can also include the total number of
internal and external interruptions on the Records Sheet to observe them and try to minimize
them over time.

Can anybody translate this for me?
I have read and reread that paragraph 3 times but still...

It seems like this guy ran his book through google translate.
 
Quick junk speak for saying that you should also keep track of activities that you find out you need to do after the fact, i.e. "unplanned activities". If you keep track of these long enough you will start to identify them beforehand and they will become planned activities.

The last part says to try to keep "unplanned activities" and "interruptions" to a minimum - big "DUH" moment here.

At least that is what I got out of it...
 
Obviously whoever wrote that doesn't really know how to write in English.
