The principle works like this:
* Signal = The three highest-impact actions that move your mission, business, or life forward today.
* Noise = Everything else. Emails, meetings, interruptions, social media, small requests, busy work, and even important tasks that aren’t the most important today.

Steve Jobs did not define three specific tasks for everyone, but instead advised Kevin O’Leary to identify the three most important tasks that advance your primary business mandate each day, referring to them as the "signal". He defined everything else that distracts you from those three goals as "noise".
