#1 – Being Disorganised
www.barbaranixon.co.uk
If you spend your time looking for things…time for a clear
out
Organise your PC; your inbox and your desk
Create a system and stick to it

#2 – Coffee and Smoke Breaks
www.barbaranixon.co.uk
If you’re having too many…have a re-think
Stick to one in the morning, lunch and one in the afternoon

#4 – Social Media
www.barbaranixon.co.uk
Keep a tally of how often you’re on social media
How long on average are you wasting?
If this is too long…time to cut down

#5 – Procrastination
www.barbaranixon.co.uk
Identify what time of day you procrastinate most and avoid doing big tasks then
Split bigger jobs into manageable chunks so they don’t feel so daunting
Allow yourself a break – if you really don’t feel like doing it. Find out why?
Watching TV; updating your social networking and checking your emails is OK providing it’s all part of the plan and it doesn’t become the norm and taking over your life. Remember you are in control of your time.
