Are you feeling frustrated at work ?

Are you constantly feeling frustrated at work? Nitty gritty things like why your colleagues can't handle a simple task like formatting a page nicely or even do a simple mail merge might just pissed your day when you are feeling moody for the day.

Have you ever thought that how your own behaviour would actually affect the whole team's day at work ? Cos in an organization, one's input at work will affect how the team works.Instead of blaming one another how slow the team works, call out for a meeting to find out whether is there any process is taking too much time . For instance, a huge chunk of emails to be replied everyday , mailing of letters, handling of customers ( both internal and external) , checking of on going project status and handling of phone calls, etc. Perhaps you could allocate a time for checking of emails for a period of 1 hour. For this one hr, there is no other thing that you should be doing other than to check emails. Settle the emails that require the priority attention and also do get yourself a filter using the email filter from www.boxbe.com , it will only allow u to first draw your attention to read only emails from contacts and subsquently let u read emails that are not from your contact list.

With this, I would like to recommend a book I have read in the past which is how to simplify your life



Multi- tasking is the lowest form of effiency !
