So instead of multi-taskinghellip

2 Once done move on to the next taskAnd when you feel the urge to work on two things at oncehellip

3 Concentrate Concentrate

Concentrate

Refresh Re-Focus Reward

It is impossible to work for a long period of time and still produce quality work without resting and recharging your brain

Instead of working for hours at a time work for 45-minutes to an hour then take a 5-minute break

These ldquoreward-breaksrdquo fight fatigue and help you to maintain your concentration and creativity

-4-

Schedule Your Distractions

Getting sucked into the morning email or voicemail black hole is a common work mistake

Avoid becoming bogged down and distracted by emails and voicemails by designating 2 times during the day to check them

This habit will allow you to start the day off right ndash WORKING

-5-

Set Yourself Up for Success

Use the last few minutes of the day to create tomorrowrsquos work list based upon what was not completed today

Creating tomorrowrsquos check-list today focuses you sub-consciously and sets you up for success

Successful time management is all about planning your day and then protecting your timehellip

And with a little intentionality you too can beat the time-management clock
