Is your work incomplete by the end of every day? Does this make you yourself feel incomplete? Why living in this state of mind? Here are some quick tips, that could help you plan your day, right;
Sounds childish, but best way to remember what are your tasks and work to be done is to write it down... this is out of my personal experience... I have seen, biggest of the managers writing down their meetings and day to day workflow on a piece of paper and sticking it on their PC's monitor... after all, we all are human beings... it is a tendency to forget... rather than remembering things at the last moment and finishing then in a hurry or leaving them incomplete, write them down, plan and finish the work on time.
Its not about only working hard all the time, it is also about working smart... just don't do whatever work comes to you... analyse and prioritize your work first and complete it accordingly... this way, not only your work but your working style will also be appreciated.
Your life is a package of work and home, so is your day... you can't end up spending your entire day at work, reaching home only to sleep and freshen up... every day can't be an emergency at work... remember, you can work better, only when your happier at your personal front... so devote equal time to your personal and professional work...
If you feel you cannot take up that particular task or the job allotted is additional to you, never hesitate in saying 'no' and explaining the reason for your rejection to your boss... it is better to say 'no', rather than saying 'yes', taking up the work and failing to complete it right, on time.
Every day cannot be the best... every task you do cannot be the best... it is okay to be a failure at times... just don't think too much, but learn something out of every failure, be it however small...
After all, life and work is all about learning and moving on...
