•It appears that you will always be behind in some tasks and responsibilities.

Planning

The most powerful thinking tool for success is your ability
to discriminate between one priority and another.

Improve your Efficiency
• Resist temptation to start with the easy task.
• The most important decision you can
make each day is the choice of what to do with your time.

Do the Most Difficult Task First
• Clear your desk so you have one
important task like a big frog waiting.• Discipline yourself to do your most
difficult task before anything else.• Do this for 21 days until it becomes
a habit, and you will notice that you have doubled your production in less than one month.
