Have you ever been sitting at your desk completely staring into space trying to figure out what to do next? Assuming that you have a list of items that you need to work on, the only way to stay on top of your workload is to keep that list fresh in your mind.

Sometimes the secret to getting things done during the day is to keep reminding ourselves of the work that lay ahead. We can do this by having a prioritized list of items that need to be accomplished during the day. And it is not uncommon to have multiple tasks being worked on at any given time, with each one as important as the other.

In order to keep from drifting away from your current job, the best piece of advice that I was given is to keep your list of tasks fresh in your mind by reviewing them often throughout the day. Keep your “to do” list on top of your desk at all times. Whenever you complete a task, take a look over at your list, cross it off, and then ask yourself “What is the best use of my time, right now?” Then move on to your next task.
