Contract out tasks.
Contract out tasks you do not have the expertise to complete. Your client will appreciate your honesty and effort
to get the best result.
·
Start with the most
worrisome task. Start the morning, afternoon, or evening with the most worrisome task before you. This will reduce
your anxiety level for the next task.
·
Complete deadline work
early. Not only will this reduce stress and lighten your work schedule, but it will also give you more
self-confidence about managing your schedule.
·
Know your capacity for
stress. When you are hitting overload, take the break you need (even if it is a short one) when you need
it.
·
Stay organized. Take
time at the end of each day to briefly organize your desk and make reminder lists of tasks for the next day or
week.
·
Take advantage of down
time. Allow yourself some down time between busy periods to review your schedule and reevaluate your
priorities.
