WORK THROUGH OTHERS
Don't try to do everything yourself when you can get help from others.
BE SELECTIVE WHEN READING
Scan books and articles quickly by using boldface headlines and subheadings to identify parts you want to read.
LIMIT THE SIZE OF MEETINGS
People do not work as hard in groups as they do alone.
STRESS CAUSES TIME LOSS
60% of women say stress is their number one problem. Stress decreases the effectiveness of their immune system, making people more susceptible to illness.
KEEP CURRENT
Don't let a backlog of jobs keep you from acting on high-priority opportunities. Tackle one back-log item each day until they're done; but don't allow them to consume your day.
DO IT NOW
Studies have shown that core executives will pick up a single piece of paper from their desk thirty or forty times before acting on it.
PUT YOUR JOB IN PERSPECTIVE
People are working longer hours, taking work home, visiting doctors more often and taking more sick days. The number of workers highly satisfied with their jobs dropped from 62% in 1991 to 45% in 2001.
