I noticed that I would be a person that suffered from both “get it done right now as soon as it is given to you†and “I’ll do it later.†Being a person that walks between both worlds I know how hard it is to manage your time. One of the Tips that I would like the share with others would be Outlook!
Instead of setting up a to-do-list that I have no time to check, I set up my Outlook email to do that for me. If someone assigns me a task that I know will take more than 10 minutes I tell them to please email me the request so I don’t let it fall by the wayside. Once they email it to me I flag it and assign a quick category to it. This helps me out a lot. As I get tasks done I delete the email. As more come in I assign them flags and tags.
One by one they go away, but the queue is never clear? I guess that is another problem for another section HAHA!
