Don't know how to prioritize

If you break down all of your problems into smaller ones, you'll find yourself able to categorize them into one of the quadrants from the matrix below. People who have trouble managing their time focus only on the urgent problems, no matter if they're important or not. The difference between those and successful people is that successful people only focus on important problems.

So, ditch the things that aren't important to you, and focus on what's important. You'll feel better and accomplish much more. Also check the solutions on learning how to say No.

Start your day by doing the hardest task first. No matter what it is, it will always pay off. You don't have to finish it, just do the amaunt of job you have planned for the day and do the same thing tomorow. It will leave you relaxed with the sense you've done something important, and it's not even noon yet. 

Get a piece of paper and write down everything you need to get done. It'll help you to get things out of your head so you can percieve them from a different perspective. Make a list of the things you have to take care of. You can order them by importance.

Once you've writen down everything that needs to get done, categorise the tasks. You can categorise them as the things you want to get done

• This month
• This week
• Today

and the sublists are

• Career 
• Financical
• Family
• Creative
• Attitude
• Pleasure

If you're having problems like running out of time and feelings stressful, check the solutions on how to manage time.

You're not always going to be in the mood to get the job done. Just think about what it'll bring and why you're doing it. Results are what you're going for. Don't let your emotions get in the way. Rationalize your thoughts and get things done. Get used to feeling uncomfortable, it's when you progres the most.

Don't get stuck doing the same thing over and over again or trying to make it perfect. A healthy dose of perfectionism is a good thing but it can easily escalate and become a time waster. Know exactly when you're done. Then move, you probably have something else that needs to be taken care of.

Nowadays, it's very easy to feel overwhelmed by all the technology surrounding us, and since humans are social species we all like to be available to be our friends and family all the time. Because of that, we often end up doing multiple things at once instead completely focusing our attention on that task we must finish (eg mobile phone). The main goal of quitting multitasking is being able to easily achieve the state of flow, being fully focused on something.

Multitasking doesn't save your time, it actually slows you down and you end up feeling guilty because you weren't giving your full attention to the task. It stresses you, makes you less creative and can hurt your relationships. So do one thing at a time and see the results for yourself.

Routine tasks don't have to be so sterile all the time. Try listening to music while doing them, there must be plenty of albums you haven't heard.

Here's a list of best albums of all time.

Reward yourself after completing a task successfully, but not with food, at least try not to do it all the time. Rewarding yourself is important because it keeps you motivated and brings you the feeling of achievement.
