Hey guys! Workload too heavy? Feel like you are about to hypothetically break your back? Here’s a few steps on how to overcome that!
Prioritize Your Tasks
The more things you have to do, the less time you have to complete them all.
You have to accept this as a fact, thus do the most important tasks first before moving on to less important tasks.
Don’t put off tasks, when it is the next on your list, just do it!
Set Deadlines
It is advised to finish your tasks quickly and move on to the next.
Doing a specific task for more than an hour maybe a nice effort, but spending more than five hours doing the same thing is wasting time.
Instead of focusing on one task for a long time, try to do it as quickly and efficiently as possible and moving on to the next to easily meet your deadlines.
Stay Up-To-Date
Keeping track of what you are getting done each day can help you measure how much time you really need for a given project.
This way you will not feel too much pressure as knowing that will help you identify how much you can do in the future.
Don’t Be A Perfectionist
This does not mean simply “cincai” do things, but working on the same thing for long periods of time to make it perfect is not a good idea.
It wastes your time, and delays other deadlines you have to hit.
Keep in mind, great work is what you do for your clients. Nobody is asking you to be 100% perfect.
Perfection is just for our ego.
Set Realistic Goals
Set realistic and achievable deadlines.
Do not give yourself or your colleagues unrealistic or impossible deadlines as it only adds to stress for everyone.
You do your job very well, but don’t expect others to do it as well as you do. Manage expectations and be realistic.
