- Write your lists early: Make your to-do list within the first hour of your day, and plan everything you want to try to get done during the day.
- Be active: Getting out and taking a walk as you talk, or (if you have the time) going for a run can make a huge difference in your day. When you exercise you release endorphins, and that also helps to promote creativity.
- Smart scheduling: Schedule the most important tasks for the time of day when you have the most energy and concentration.
- Big things first: Get that one big thing out of the way first. You'll move into the afternoon with a sense of accomplishment and will feel the weight lifted from your shoulders of larger tasks.
- Do nothing for 5 minutes: Taking time to recharge is so important. It'll help you keep a clear head and stay calm throughout the day.
