www.SwitchedOnMediaGroup.com I don't think about what needs to be done in
the future today. I block out time in my calendar a day or two prior to it being
completed and focus on it then. This means that my mind isn't filled with what's
ahead of me, allowing me to be more productive in the now. It also puts a stop to
overwhelm as I'm confident that my time has been allocated adequately for each
project so I can put it out of my mind. It's a very freeing discipline. I also do it
for my personal life. If there are major decisions that need to be made, I'll book
in some “thinking” time for it.

www.workfromhomeduo.com Before you go to bed at night, define the three
most important tasks for the next day. These don't have to be your only tasks—
just the three that are non-negotiable. Define your most productive time of day,
and knock out those tasks during that time if possible. When you are working on
the tasks, remove all possible distractions in order to focus intently on the work.
If necessary, break the tasks down to smaller chunks, and set a timer to work for
30 minutes to an hour. Allow yourself a break, and then set the timer again.
Repeat until you've completed these primary tasks for your day.
