The best way to hit the ground running is to start the night before.
Before leaving your workspace, or before going to bed, take 10 minutes to look over the next day’s commitments.
What appointments can’t be missed? What do you need to have with you for those appointments? (Make sure you’ve gathered those materials and have them ready to go.) What three to five tasks must get done?
Decide what you’ll do first. Look at that to-do list and decide whether any tasks on it can be delegated to someone else.
