Having a clear idea of what to do and when to get it done can assist you in remaining on top of your work. To do this, ensure your targets follow the “SMART” goals rule (i.e., they are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound). This allows you to break them down into smaller and more manageable chunks that you can complete seamlessly. Setting up a sustainable routine and adhering to it as much as you can is also a pragmatic strategy to consider. This essentially means establishing specific times and days to complete certain tasks – whilst scheduling breaks at regular intervals. In the meantime, should you happen to find your concentration levels fading, practise a few simple mental exercises or go for a short walk to clear your mind.
