#recovery mode still ON today
Made huge headway – worked all day and all evening. Only got up at 8:30pm to make dinner for the family (we eat late in the summer), eat together, and chat. Did a little work after that but by 11pm I was tired. Still recovering I guess…
Today I will try again. I was able to, like yesterday, switch to the non-drowsy drugs, so I can at least make sense of the world! :)
My challenge:
only 40 e-mails (a record low), BUT I have 126 to dos. That will be hard. Impossible even.
My to dos are generally things no one else could do (otherwise i would have delegated), and they can take anywhere from 5 minutes to a whole day.
My rule for work is this: Any e-mail I can deal with in 5 minutes or less, I take care of immediately. Any longer and I add it as a TO DO in my to do program. The reason for that is that I can then evaluate all of the to dos I have, and then decide on the top 3. Once those are completed, I reassess the list in order priority for the day. If it is too much, I decide what to postpone, but the point is that everything that is there for me to do, is there for a reason.
Another day I will explain better how I go about setting my to dos. I do that three years ahead, not only daily. This is what allows me to meet my goals.
Anyway, back to work!
