How do you organize your day?


Do you have a daily routine or just deal with things as they come up?

I tend to keep sticky notes all over the house with various todos or reminders. For those with daily routines, how do you ensure you stay on track?

I try to spend the first 10 minutes of my day reviewing my calendar for the day and write out my priorities for the day. I may have 1 priority or I may have 3 or 4. I've definitely noticed myself getting more things done when I've done this vs the days where I've skipped it.

I also keep a document with future ideas or improvements that I can pick from if it's a slow period at work.

I used to but I don't really anymore. I've learned that I'm most productive when I let myself autopilot.

These days I write a list of things to do, and then observe myself doing them the whole day. I don't really get in the way unless it's doing something dumb like opening steam because of an email.
