Strategies & Tips for Prioritizing Tasks


Listen Later

Do you ever feel like you do not have enough time to do everything you’d want in a day? The secret lies in prioritizing your tasks. The first place to start is literally doing a brain dump onto paper. Write down all the tasks you need to accomplish in that day. The tasks include business-related, personal related all the things. Next, you’re going to categorize them into the business category, all those things that you want to focus on.

With a list in place, you can now go ahead and have a tracking application to help you see where your time goes. Also, having a list gives you room to categories your tasks into these categories: Urgent and important, not urgent but important, urgent and unimportant and unurgent and unimportant. Depending on the urgency and importance of a task, you can decide to either delegate or handle it later.

Do you have moments when negativity fills you up, and it interferes with your productivity? It would help if you started making use of a success jar. With the success jar strategy, all you need to do is at the end of the day; you jot down everything you have achieved on a piece of paper and put it in a jar. When negativity starts to come in, look at all the things you have achieved from the success jar. It works like magic.
