    If you don't know your best time for getting important tasks done, experiment. Some ideas

    • Try waking a little earlier -- 10 minutes a day earlier until you're eventually up 40-60 minutes earlier than normal. See if you can make a cup of coffee or tea & get started with your most important task before doing anything else

    • Try blocking off time as soon as you get to work. So one hour at the beginning of your workday, clear all distractions, don't start email or anything else, and 22
    start on your most important task. Set this task at the end of the day before.

    • Try blocking off time before lunch, or just after. See which works better.

    • Try a block of time later in the afternoon, or early evening.

    • Try blocking off time at the end of your day, at night, before you go to bed.

    What if you have a long list of tasks to do? Narrow things down. Just choose three from your list, and make this your Short List.

    If all else fails, just take a nap or go outside and enjoy the outdoors or do nothing. Life isn’t all about productivity. Do less.

    6. If you keep procrastinating, re-evaluate whether you really want to do it. Consider not doing it, or putting it on the back-burner.

    5. Reward your 10 minutes of work with a few minutes of doing something you enjoy -- have a cup of tea, stretch & go for a walk, check Facebook or your news sites, whatever you like. Put a timer on this 3-5 minute reward, or it can stretch to an hour!

    4. Just get started. Overcome the initial barrier by diving in. Tell yourself you’re just going to do 10 minutes. Forget about perfection. Just start doing it, and fix it later.

    3. Keep things simple – don’t mess with tools, formatting, anything, just start.

    2. Make it the first thing you do today, before checking email or anything else.

    1. Choose an important task. And be sure you really, really, really want to do it. Find something about it that excites you.

    We’re most often afraid of the unknown, which has more power because we don’t examine this fear — it just lurks in the back of our minds. Dreading or fearing something makes us want to put it off, to postpone even thinking about it, and to do something easy and safe instead.
