practicing effective time-management tech-
niques, don’t let yourself get complacent. If you

DEALING WITH DISTRACTION
The best way to get over the little
hurdles in your day that eat up your
precious minutes is to fully acknowledge
that distractions happen. The faster
you admit you have been derailed, the
faster you can correct the issue and get
back on track. While there is no magic
to eliminating distractions, they can be
dealt with easily and without too much
damage if handled properly.
Do set aside a certain amount of
time for responding to e-mail and
returning telephone calls.
Do keep e-mail messages succinct
and to the point, but friendly none-
theless.
Don’t forward jokes and junk e-mail
to others, especially if you yourself
find them a waste of time.Dos & Don’tsR
