| Chaos and a hectic pace seem to be par for the course in most anyone’s workday, and it can turn your workday upside down if you let it. However, with some careful planning, efficient, scheduling, and well-developed work habits, your workday can smoothly sail along. Planning your workday actually starts the previous evening. Take a few moments before you leave work to jot down important meetings, phone calls that need to be made or returned, ideas or concerns that need to be discussed with your supervisors or co-workers, or other notes to yourself about projects you’re working on or clients you’re currently working with. That way, it’ll be right there for you to see the next morning, and it’ll make getting into the swing of things much easier. You should stay on top of your both your desktop and electronic inboxes. Check e-mail when you arrive, and immediately sort each message into an appropriate folder. Even if you are a lack of time to read or deal with the content of the message, sort it for later action. Sort through and organize regular mail and correspondence as well, and organize into piles for later action if necessary. Make sure you come back to these at the end of the day and take any appropriate action or you can at that time. Try to make it a habit of responding promptly to all mail requesting a timely response. Check through these inboxes during the course of the workday as well. Return or make your most urgent and important phone calls early in the day. Like you, most people are more likely to be at their desks during this time. Get in tuned with your personal energy level and schedule. If you have more energy at the beginning of the day, tackle your toughest projects then. If your energy level dips after lunch, take care of filing, e-mailing or other general tasks at this time. At the end of the day, return to your checklist and prepare for tomorrow. Go to your checklist and remove those completed items. Move any pending items to tomorrow’s to-do list. Utilize both an electronic and wall or desk calendar to keep track of deadlines, meetings, and appointments. If your day allows, try to work on those long-term projects a bit so that as their deadlines approach you won’t feel so pressured or rushed. Most importantly, take a break. Don’t get into the habit of having your lunch at your desk or cutting your breaks short. A walk during your break and time away from your desk to recharge are probably the most important things you can do for yourself to recharge your battery, clear your mind and prepare to tackle the tasks at hand more productively and efficiently.

| Yes. This is all about managing the work in a day. For me every tomorrow will start from the previous DAY evening itself. Before leaving office I sit before my system and note down a. the meeting I should take up with my staff and the subject in brief b Court matters I have to attend on priority basis along with the phone numbers of the judicial officials I have to contact c. information relating to files that have to be obtained from the Central Government;d. Emails I have to attend personally d. Confidential files I have to attend personally It makes me half the work done tomorrow and gives me the confidence to come to office with more vigor and energy. Planning is the most important factor for a successful executive. During lunch hour I never eat in my seat but try to visit some other place sharing something with other colleague/s. It gives to gather some informal information about the activities going on in the office Sitting for 5 minutes closing eyes and without allowing any thoughts rejuvenates the mental activity. Washing the face gives freshness while speaking to others. Allowing others always to sit while speaking gives them an opportunity to express themselves better and gives them a feeling of togetherness. I generally follow most fo the managerial principles | |
| A good day is started when you start planning your day the previous day in the evening. And this all starts with your routine in the house. When you wake up in the morning make sure you have laid out your clothes and shoes so that you dont have to start running around looking gor what to wear. Once that is sorted you have your breakfast in peace and when your done you start your journey to work. You know what you do the first thing when you get to the office. The above guidelines are good enough to get you started to a good day. Its all about time management if you can manage that then you are doing just fine. |
