1. Spend time planning and organizing. Using time to think and plan is time well spent.
2. Set goals. Goals give your life a sense of purpose and direction.
3. Prioritize. Remember the 80-20 rule – spend 80% of our time on activities that give us 80% return.
4. Use a “to do” list. Some people thrive using a daily to do list. It helps give you that sense of achievement.
5. Be flexible. Allow time for interruptions and distractions.
6. Consider your biological prime time. That’s the time of day when you are at your best.
7. Do the right thing. Peter Drucker says, “doing the right thing is more important than doing things right”.
8. Eliminate the urgent. Urgent tasks have short-term consequences, while important tasks are those with long-term, goal-related implications.
9. Practice the art of intelligent neglect. Eliminate from your life trivial tasks or these tasks which do not have long-term consequences for you.
10. Avoid being a perfectionist. Some things are simply not worth doing perfectly.
11. Conquer procrastination. Just do it.
12. Learn to say NO. Such a small word – yet so hard to say!
13. Reward yourself. Even for small successes, celebrate achievement of goals.
