Wouldn’t it be nice to get things done by noon? It may sound impossible to many, but it shouldn’t be. Everybody procrastinates, we know. Procrastination is never about knowing when to start, instead it’s knowing when to stop. Doesn’t make any sense, right? Well, it shouldn’t at first. Like a runner, one has to begin in order to finish. And if you’ve begun, there won’t be no need to procrastinate.
Many of us measure work by the number of hours we spend. A lot of times we forget to measure how many tasks were accomplished. Your energy, and not your time, matters the most when getting things done. No matter how exhausted you are, managing your tasks with productivity, along with energy, will help you do better.
Make a to-do list starting each week, with everything you want to accomplish in the next seven days. Separate your daily goals from your weekly goals. On workdays, focus only on completing your daily goals. Doing this, you develop a main focus of getting things done. Also, knowing that you’re good throughout the week, you get to relax and finish the day early without feeling guilty.
As a college student, it’s very important that I get my work done at RadiusOnline on time. Because I’m not only an intern, I’m taking five classes and I also have a part-time job. I make sure that the night before I go to the office I make a list of things I want to accomplish for that day. And right before the week starts, I make sure that I also make a list of things I want to get done for the entire week. For example, I make a list of posts I want posted on Facebook or pictures I want on Instagram and what topic I want to address in the first week of April or so. Every day, I set goals for myself. As an intern, it is very important for me to know and plan the tasks I want to get done for the day. I wanna go in the office with a mindset of going prepared to get things done. So, know your work and get whatever needs to be done!
Sincerely,
Online Marketing Intern
