The title should encourage you to read the article, but sometimes there is nothing attractive in it except the title, but that's not what happened with the material that I present to you today. The article seemed very useful to me.
The first line of defense. A two-hour moratorium.
You need to earn a daily salary in the first two hours. Turn off notifications, do not open either the browser or the email client, identify the three most important things for today and, without interrupting even the answers on the phone, do as much as possible to complete them. Even if the whole day then goes down the drain, you will definitely have time to do a lot.
The second line. Dispatches — to quarantine.
When you have worked these two hours, you should not immediately jump into the sea of notifications and information garbage. It's worth spending just 15 minutes to respond to really important emails that are meant just for you. After that, you should close the mail client again.
The third line. The border is locked.
You can guess how the Network works now, right? You need to regularly put good and relevant material on your blog. It is he who is increasingly becoming a source for our potential partners and customers. Therefore, devote the next hour to writing something both attractive and useful for your existing and potential audience.
There is nowhere to retreat. Behind — Moscow.
To maintain a balance between personal and work roles, set an alarm reminder either on your computer or in your mobile phone an hour before the moment when you would like to leave the office. As soon as he « rings » — start finishing all the cases and putting them in a state from which it will be easier to start them tomorrow.
That's all. Spend the rest of your day enjoying the company of friends and family, being satisfied with the knowledge that you really did something useful today.
