10 Ways to Maximize Your Time!


1. Starting your day 15 minutes earlier each day, can add an extra 30 more minutes of productivity.

2. Get rid of distractions. Schedule times to check cellular phone and email messages. Do not

keep checking them every 5 minutes.

3. Make lists and take notes. None of us has a perfect memory.

4. Plan ahead. Spend the last 10 minutes of today, planning for tomorrow.

5. Group similar task together. i.e. phone calls, filing, report writing, etc.

6. Do the 2 minute tasks FIRST. It will make you feel like you are getting through your "to do" list faster and the day will seem less overwhelming.

8. Organize, organize, organize. Do I need to say more?

9. Regulate your daily responsibilities and set a time limit on each one.

10. Use shortcuts when you can, but not in a way that can negatively impact the end result.
