what could be an example of something that is urgent but is not important?

and something that is important but not urgent?

these questions refer to daily actions or well any actions, i have absolutely no idea how to answer that. Sure doesn't urgent and important meant almost the same?

Not necessarily. If you've been coughing for a week, it's probably important to see your doctor. But until you start coughing up blood, it's probably not urgent.
