SET UP STRONG GOALS but never too many that you cannot handle. Take up responsibilities one at a time. Make up a list of goals, which are entirely necessary for you to achieve in order to succeed. Prioritize them accordingly so that the goals you initially take up help to achieve the succeeding goals efficiently. Take up the first set of goals from your list and plan on how to achieve them in a fixed period of time and then move on to the next once you are completely satisfied with your work. Maintaining deadlines for your goals and adhering to them is mandatory to ensure accomplishment and further planning. By prioritizing and carefully implementing goals one by one rather than trying to urge to the final destination all at once, it becomes much easier to turn back and notice what you have achieved and how much better you can cogitate to accomplish even more in the future.

NEVER PUT AWAY STUFF THAT YOU CAN FINISH NOW, this is something that no one usually follows. As a result work gets piling up and at one instant you will notice that you have loads to do but no time. This leads to poor performance, stress, irritation and thus lack of appreciation. Even if you have the real talent, it will not be recognized if proper work schedule is not followed.

In turn you can share your ideas to improve your friend’s work. Mutual benefit is the major key to working smart and earning true recognition.

Make wide assumptions and get all the things ready. This practice usually saves most of the time since you won’t have to keep looking out and searching for things in the middle. Your work flow would be continuous when you have every thing in place.

BE POSITIVE, always take whatever comes your way in an optimistic manner. Thinking positive will give the positive energy in you, helping to do your work more efficiently.
