Grab Yourself a Planner
For many of us, including me, it helps s great deal to write things down. Combine that with a planner/calendar and you're well on your way.
Don't Forget to Set Those Deadlines
Deadlines help achieve goals. The trick is to stick to them.
Make Sure to Have a Clean and Organized Workspace
If you're anything like me, a disorganized desk makes things even more difficult. Stay as organized as possible. It makes things easier to access.
Stay Hydrated and Eat Healthily
I'm a huge lover of coffee but don't rely on that all day. It can result in a crash later. Water is a great replenisher. Plus eating well will help keep you going strong.
Make Technology Work For You
There are several productivity apps and programs available to help you along the way.
Delegate When Possible
You'd be surprised how much more you can get done with a little help. Don't be afraid to delegate tasks. Just make sure you trust who you ask.
Get an Early Start and Have a Plan
Time is of the essence. Get a good early start on the day with a direction of what you want to accomplish and how you're going to get there.
Take Breaks Throughout the Day
This is a big one for me. If I don't step away from a task at hand, at least for a few minutes, it can really affect my day. Grab those breaks in the action when you can.
Set Time Limits On Tasks
There are some jobs that will take as much from you as you're willing to give it. There's got to be a cut-off point. Not only for your sanity but you don't want one task to hold up other projects.
Treat Yourself for a Job Well Done
Make sure to take time and reward yourself. This helps keeps you motivated.
Time is one thing that we can never get back. That's why I'm all about staying one step ahead of things and being as productive as possible. Hopefully, the above tips are a great start to giving you some time back to enjoy the things you love the most.
