Quick fire Working from Home Tips: 'to do' lists

To do lists are like Marmite either you love them or you hate them. If you find lists a helpful tool in organising your day, this tip will increase the effectiveness of your list writing skills.

1. Dedicate a few minutes each morning to plan.
2. Review your schedule for the day and quickly overview the week's schedule.
3. Have your day planner to hand.
4. Fill in the commitments that are already confirmed.
5. Schedule in tea breaks, lunch and finishing time.
6. Decide on the 3 important tasks for the day and add them to your 'to do' list.
7. Establish the habit of scheduling important tasks and be proactive not reactive.
8. Get to work.
9. End of day review.

How successful has your list been today?
