1. Track Actual Usage of Every Hour For One Week

• Write every activity, meeting, project, and
  conversation that occurs throughout each day for
  a full week. The information recorded in the
  organizer will reveal how time is being spent and
  what adjustments must be made. Brutal honesty is
  required to find the patterns and address misuses
  of minutes and hours.

2. Evaluate File and Desk Space

• Everyone has certain needs and a professional
  organizer can assist in this area more than any
  other. Preferences are incorporated into a design
  that meets the requirements of work patterns and
  job duties for each person. No two offices will
  be the same when the professional organizer in
  San Diego is asked to help.

3. Avoid Multi-Tasking

• Task completion has become challenging because of
  a misused skill that is a distraction in every
  workplace. The ability to write an email, answer
  the phone, carry on a conversation and work on a
  project simultaneously is not as helpful as was
  once perceived. Each of the tasks ends up being
  partially complete and must be performed a second
  time to correct the mistakes. Focus must be
  placed on the work at hand and distractions
  minimized.

4. Control the Telephone

• Some phone calls are important enough to be
  handled immediately, but many phone conversations
  can be eliminated with proactive communication.
  If outbound calls are to be made, group all of
  the calls into one hour.

5. Plan For Next Day Before Leaving

• Review the to do list and choose the first task
  that will serve as the starting point the next
  morning. On Friday, update the organizer with all
  meetings and tasks that must be completed in the
  coming week. Make some notes while everything is
  fresh in the memory to avoid a slow start each
  day.

6. Expect Others to Work Independently

• Every workplace has a unique culture that can be
  seen in the work habits of each person. Employees
  should have the tools and skills they need to do
  their own work. Managers must convey their
  expectation that work will be completed without
  assistance.

7. Refuse To Work Evenings and Weekends

• In some offices, most of the day is spent
  socializing during business hours and then
  everyone is expected to work overtime.
  Recognize this tendency and expect work to be
  completed during the day.
