If you have 63 items on your daily to-do list, guess what? You won't get them finished by the end of the day. There is a real psychological boost to crossing off everything on your list for the day, and finishing work on a high. Try it for yourself. Tomorrow morning, instead of the giant to-do list, take a Post-it and write 1 to 3 Most Important Tasks that you want to get done. Without distraction (no email, no Twitter, no phone), work on your first priority for the day until it is complete. Take a break, and start on number two. By the end of the day, you will have crossed off everything on your list - a great day!
We'd love to know what you do that makes you happy or reduces your workplace stress. Please let us know in the comments below or in our forum and we'll pick a selection for a fresh happiness post next week. Photo credit: Purple Slog
