Have you ever made an appointment with yourself?
I see you laughing right now but it is so important to spend some time in your inner /personal organization and everyday goal setting in the beginning of each day.
So, do not procrastinate and start making appointments with yourself. Plan your day by deciding when you’ll check email and when you’ll work on client projects and stick to the schedule. By this way, you will be focused and on right track with your self-imposed deadlines and you will not waste your time with the “time-vampires” i.e social media channels.
