Prepare a list

Begin your week with a list of things to do, stay on track with your top priorities throughout the week as more impromptu stuff comes in .

Have a regular work out routine

Being fit keeps your energy levels high and you will feel fresh and positive throughout the day.

This being said means making exercise a priority, not something you do only when you “have the time”.

Remove clutter from your desk

Organize your physical files, stationery as well as your e-mail inbox.

Searching for items is a total waste of time.

Have time lines for each project

Time lines keep you on track of what you have done, where you are at and most importantly where you are headed.

Prioritize

Trying to get everything done at the same time makes you lose focus and you land up doing less, but in more time.

Understand the difference between “Important” and “Urgent” then you should be able to work on your top priorities first.

Good luck!

If you feel you’ve been unproductive and sluggish at work, try adding some plants to your office setting. Plants are said to make indoor workplaces healthier, calmer and improve productivity. Besides enhancing office decor, plants enhance employee well-being and air quality. Studies have also shown that plants can combat ’sick building syndrome’ in which toxins from furniture, carpeting, wall coverings and other office decor are linked to ailments, ranging from upper-respiratory problems to eye irritations, allergies, colds or viruses.
