conversations.

Assign
time to those activities and conversations that are important to your success.
Create time blocks in your schedule for high-priority items and keep those
appointments.
3.
Plan to
be pulled away and schedule time for these interruptions.
4.
Spend
the first thirty minutes every day on planning your day and don't start your
tasks until this plan is completed.
5.
Block
out online distractions like Facebook and other social media sites unless these
tools are used to generate business.
6.
Don’t
give people your instant attention unless it is crucial to your business. Don’t
answer the phone just because it is ringing or emails just because they are
there. Schedule time in your day to return phone calls and respond to emails.
Following these simple
time management tips will allow you to get more done throughout your day. For
