SET YOUR PRIORITIES RIGHT
Freelancers tend to struggle a lot when it comes to time, tasks, and slot management.
We can spend too much time on tasks that don’t need our immediate attention and in the process end up forgetting about the ones that are close to deadlines.
Follow This Method:
- Note down the deadline for each project you are working on!
- Then note down all the tasks you need to do to mark the project or a milestone complete.
- Assign all these tasks a priority number from 1 to 10, depending on their importance.
- Every day, you can pick out 5 or 6 tasks from all your projects and work on them.

Set a buffer
Plans rarely go as smoothly as planned, so it’s always wise to set a buffer time in place.
Break down the project into smaller tasks and before the deadline, schedule a day or two to give yourself a breather to review your project, to allow for delays or last-minute changes.
