PLANNING FOR THE NEXT DAY
Ever finish your workday thinking it was just a string of random tasks with intermittent crises? You’ll stay more focused through the day and still handle the unexpected when you take time to plan ahead.
•
Save 15 minutes at the end of the workday to create a To Do list for the next day. Review your calendar for meetings and deadlines, and then add in tasks that remain undone from the day.
•
Next, re-file any open documents or project files left out on your desktop. Putting them away ensures you will find them again easily.
•
Last, gather up and store loose pens, highlighters and other supplies used during the day. Check to see if any items need replenishing.
