13. Reduce Work Stress
Do Your Most Important Work First
How do you organize your work day?
Do you focus on certain important tasks or projects first thing
in the morning, before other things can get in the way?
Or do you just do things whenever you feel like it?
FACT : You get to the office, turn on your computer, and start checking email. Then
you respond to a few calls and check more email. Then you surf the web and check the
news and latest info on topics that interest you. Then answer another call. All of a
sudden, it is lunchtime and you have no idea where your morning went? And you’re
mad at yourself for not accomplishing the project or task that you had planned to do.
So Make Your Plan, Organize & Implement it by giving the value of your time
