Key:
You may have experienced morning panic. When you come to the office in the morning, there is always a large pile of work. Everything needs to be finished and you can't even decide where to begin. You can't organize the mess at all. In fact, the cause for your morning panic is that you try to face this entire first thing at the same time. You haven't made a plan of action. My advice for you is to preplan your day. You divide your projects into three lists. Your A-list items are highest priority, your B-list items are less immediate, and everything else should be in the C-list. Each list is flexible and you can change the items at the end of the day. If you begin each day with a fresh plan of action, it will help you get over morning panic and you can get right down to work.
