Number 2 on the list of good working habits from "How to Stop Worrying":​ do things in the order of their importance.

I don’t think this idea comes as new information to any of you receiving this email today, but we all need a reminder every now and then.

Too much of our mental energy is wasted on trying to bounce from task to task, trying to do it all.

Focus on the task at hand not only makes us more productive, it relieves a lot of the stress associated with trying to do too many things.

Since we all had such a positive experience yesterday with cleaning our desks, let’s try to follow this advice today.

Write down your top 5 tasks for today in order of importance, then get started on number one.

Make it a great day.
