Never put off doing things that dont take long to do no matter how ugley the task. ie if you can do a task in less than 5 minuites, do it right away.

Hey – best advice I was given re time management was to run my to do lists as part of a main paper diary. Week to an opening – split the page down the middle – appointments on the left, to do lists on the right across each day – tick/cross each item off the list as you go. sit down on Friday to look at what remains outstanding – catch up on the items that need to be finished this week and then set up your diary for next week.

As there is no date on this post, I do hope that this is available til July 31 2008.

My biggest tip is the weekly review. At the end (or beginning) or each week, I take a look at my to do list, and re-prioritize for the upcoming week. I sort based on Next Action, Action, Someday/Maybe, and Waiting On. It makes the weeks go so much easier and more organized. I love being able to see exactly what I have to do each week.

The one thing that I do that gets me to complete my work for the day is the day is to remind myself if I am doing justice to the salary that I get from my superiors, if I am eat. Coz if I am eating just, then I am living just.

I have found that asking my boss to priortize the projects he assigns to me does not always work. Now I simply write the project name and priority rank on a large whiteboard as we talk so that he can see how busy I am, and that all projects cannot be priority one. Works like a charm!

I always keep a bottle or cup of water next to me. By drinking water, I can prevent dehydration's drowsing effect, allowing for greater productivity. In addition, I get to enjoy water's other healthful benefits and can readily wash down supplements and medicine (multivitamin, fish oil, etc).

When it is empty, I get up for a nice, quick walking break.

Do the one thing you dread doing most first! Usually I find that the doing is not half as bad as the anticipation of the doing, and I get a real sense of acomplishment that the dreaded task is accomplished!

When at work or at home, use the "touch a paper once" principle. As soon as you pick it up – mail, newspaper, memo, letter, any document – read it and decide what to do with it immediately. Don't put it back down on the table or in a basket. Either respond to it, file it in the correct file (not the "to be filed" pile), forward it on, throw it away, or post it.
