BE SMART

FINISH THE MOST IMPORTANT WORK FIRST
Try to get most of the important tasks done earlier. It’s suggested that you finish these tasks before lunch so you have more energy and time after. Make sure you leave enough time to finish the rest of the job.
AVOID MULTI-TASKING
If you try to do more things at once, it will only slow down the actual process and bug you down instead of doing each task individually. So focus on one task and get it done quickly to start another task.
DON’T GET AHEAD OF YOURSELF
It’s good to look forward to the future but make sure you focus on the present situation. Don’t try too work too hard to finish too much work. Setting a goal to high trying to get too many things done in a day would only stress you out more.
