• Do something now. However small, action breeds more action
  • Break down big projects into smaller, achievable-sized steps
  • Say ‘no’ when necessary. Take control to achieve what you want
  • Do the most important and challenging thing in your day first
  • Review your to-do list every day. Set achievable deadlines
  • Set time aside to answer your emails and calls when you choose
  • Work when you are at your best. Are you an early bird or night owl?
  • Clear your space to focus and be more productive
  • Manage your time. It’s precious. Use it wisely
  • Begin with the end in mind (Stephen Covey). Before your day starts, take 20mins to plan it. Where do you want to be at the end of your day? What do you want to have achieved?
