‘The first steps towards better organization consist of:

1. Clarifying your current organizational strengths and weaknesses;
2. Identifying the reasons why you are currently not as organized as you might wish;
3. Building a positive belief in your ability to make progress;
4. Establishing a clear view of what you expect to gain from better organization;
5. Setting precise objectives;
6. Balancing the different elements of your life;
7. Determining day-to-day priorities.’

If you are to organize your time more effectively, you need to:

1} Be aware of the way your time is currently spent;

2} Be able to plan your activity over different time frames;

3} Select tracking tools that work for you;

4} Estimate the time required to complete tasks;

5} Work to reduce procrastination;

6} Adopt an organized approach to meeting deadlines.’

Above all, ‘understand the way you work.’
