MEASURE YOUR TV WATCHING

Keep a record of the number of hours you watch TV during a typical week. You may not have a problem. Then again you may be surprised. It may motivate you enough to make some changes. TV can be a real time gobbler.

EXCESSIVE OVERTIME IS NOT TIME-EFFECTIVE

Sometimes we have to work overtime in order to get a rush job completed or put the finishing touches on a priority project. But if we work overtime on a regular basis, we seldom gain the productivity return that we expect. In fact, the law of diminishing returns takes over, and every extra hour of work brings increasingly less than an equivalent hour of results.

YOU'RE DISORGANIZED IF...

It's easier to open a new bank account than reconcile your bankbook.

There are as many papers on your desk as there are in your filing cabinets.

Your 'to do' list includes a reminder to look for your other 'to do' list.
