Making the most of your time...

1. Break big tasks down into stages and plan time-slots for them. Chunk them down and they become less intimidating.
2. Do not start lots of jobs at the same time - even if you can handle different tasks at the same time it's not the most efficient way of dealing with them, so don't kid yourself that this sort of multi-tasking is good - it's not.
3. Prioritize ruthlessly - You should start each day with a time management session prioritizing the tasks for that day and setting your performance benchmark. If you have 20 tasks for a given day, how many of them do you truly need to accomplish?.
