How to start and end your day

Beginning of the day

1. Whether there was anything significant since last night?

Some events may cause you to reconsider plans for the day. For example, it is necessary to rebuild the schedule, if the sick you or your loved ones.

Just do not rush just to check your mail. Think about whether or not some letter can greatly affect your day. Display only the messages directly related to the case that you have planned for the morning, and do not waste time analysis of all mail.

2. What should I do today?

Look at the list compiled by the evening on the day. If necessary, top up or shorten it.

3. Why start now?

Select one problem and focus on it. It is better to do one thing well, than three - somehow.

End of the day

1. What do you have per day?

Think about what you have done that you have succeeded. Life - is a series of small steps, and if you do not enjoy small victories, It will be difficult to move to large.

2. Do I have to do something right now?

Sometimes, relax and forget about work interferes with the feeling that you forgot to do something. Check incoming mail and to-do list, to find a forgotten thing. Then think about what happens if you leave it until tomorrow (probably nothing).

3. When you need to do something that you do not have time today?

The day could be many things that need to perform in the near future, but that does not mean you have to take on them right now. Plan them for tomorrow or any other particular date, but today try not to think about them anymore.

If you do not finish the work begun today, mark where you left off and what should be the next step. So it will be easier to return to work the next day.
