As the world digitalizes and gadgets of all shapes, functions and sizes rapidly get a more prominent role in most people's lives, we can either embrace and take advantage of this progress, or choose not to. I say we should. This week, Done! provides you with eight suggestions on applications which will make your life easier.

Some things quite simply need to get done. But if they require typing in some way, shape or form, you are not alone if you keep feeling that they consume vast amounts of time. Here are the good news: This is a problem with a solution. This week Done! promotes a skill worth learning and the wonders in terms of improved efficiency it unquestionably will bring once you have learned it.

Once again, the concept of "less is more" is a saying that says it all. It can be applied in almost any situation, including the one presented in this week's Done! Done! will this week give you two surprisingly simple but effective methods to clearning out the material you never use almost without making any effort at all.

According to me, the classic saying "Less is more" couldn't be truer. Having too much of anything usually leads to some kind of imbalance, and when it comes to our daily lives, and office-spaces in particular, having too much of something eventually leads to chaos. This week's Done! is about how a single word can guide you towards increased efficiency and less frustration.

Some things are best done in cooperation with others. So one way or another, we need to meet. And in order to do so we need to be able to schedule our meeting. Preferably with ease... But even through e-mails and phone calls are perfectly good ways of communicating, they are sometimes not sufficient as smooth tools of coordinating many people and their individual agendas. But not to worry. This week's Done! is about the various methods you can use to set a meeting time with ease.

Those of us who travel in our work are aware of the possibility that a train breaks down, that we get delayed, that the flight gets cancelled and so on. We also know the frustration that comes from being stalled and not being able to turn the situation into something positive rather than letting it get to us. Bringing material to work on is a good way to make your traveling-time more productive, but taking this a step further is the way to be proactive and avoid potential frustration and aggravation. This week's Done! is about how to avoid the frustration of being stranded and make unexpected delays into productive time.

When times get tougher and we feel as in the midst of the tempest raging all around us in terms of deadlines fast approaching, meetings, tasks awaiting completion and so on, the hectic intensity of our daily doings can appear to be good reason for neglecting our structured ways of working. But this is a deceiving conclusion! It is when chaos is all around that we need our structured routines the most. This week's Done! is about how to preserve at least the most essential structural routines when we are stressed and overworked.

Many have difficulties saying no even though being able to say no is just as important as saying yes. We might have learned that denying people our helping hand is rude, and therefore tend to say yes to every little request others extend to us, regardless if we actually have the possibility, time and energy to help. In actuality, the essence of prioritization is that saying no to one thing is equivalent of saying yes to another. Therefore this week's Done! is about how to say no with a clear conscience and with good reason.

Not getting all the way when attempting to do something, big or small, can be frustrating since we do not get to check it off as completed, and in worst case scenario, it can make us unmotivated or in other ways unable to continue the task. This week's Done! is about a simple method which will make this transition from inertia after leaving the task unfinished into motion as you take up the task again, both smoother and easier.
