Tips for Saving Time
January 18th 2008 13:24
Always schedule time for recreation. You may think that this is an unproductive time-waster, but it’s not. Never taking time off work hurts your productivity more than taking a few hours of for recreation. The more stressful your work is, the more important it becomes to take time for recreation.
Make your schedule flexible. This means, always add more time than you think is needed for a specific task. Unexpected events can and will happen.
Mark your deadlines with big red letters so you instantly see them when looking at your schedule.
Rank your tasks in order of importance.
Plan your most complex tasks for the time of the day when you feel best. During your so called prime-time. If you are a morning person, plan complex tasks in the morning and small, unimportant tasks in the evening.
Create a storage system for even the simplest objects. Each drawer in your desk should have some sort of organization. You’ll never have to search through 10 different drawers again because you know instantly where to look!
If you really want pictures of your family on your desk, don’t overdo it! Your work space should be organized for work… It’s not a storage place for your family photo albums!
If your workspace is a desk, invest in a comfortable chair! It’s ridiculous to save money on a chair, especially if your job requires sitting down at a desk all day. Move all the extra chairs you never use out of your way.
