5 Time-Saving Tips for the Busy Professional From A Boston Personal Concierge

5 Time-Saving Tips for the Busy Professional From A Boston Personal ConciergeAt Good Neighbor Concierge, we offer not only the services that you need to make your life simpler but tips and information to help you as well. This month, we honor the busy professionals and invite you to take a closer look at 5 time-saving tips to help you on your journey to success.

  1. Make a list – Obvious? Perhaps, however, all too often, the most obvious things you can do to maximize your time go unused. By creating a list and crossing it off as you go, you will not only feel better but will likely find yourself being less scattered and more directed on one task at a time.
  2. Skip the small talk – While a personal touch is often important for business, long conversations with co-workers can quickly eat up your day. Work time should be devoted to work. More interruptions cause less productivity.
  3. Be organized – Both at home and at work, an organized desk/office is a sure way to maximize your time and reduce stress. Not having to search for misplaced files or that silly pen for the 10th time during the day, will help you stay on track and ready to go when the clock strikes 5.
  4. Learn to say no – Taking on too much at home or at work can make you less efficient and actually waste your precious time. Learning to say no is a sure way to be able to devote 100% of your attention to the task at hand, both in the office and at home.
  5. Make email work for you – For many of us, Monday mornings are the worst because half of our day is spent catching up on emails, putting us behind for the week. Part of maximizing your time is in your head. If you start out your week feeling behind, you may soon be. To avoid this, make email work for you; don’t be a slave to it. Don’t spend your whole day on email; instead, break it up and do a little at a time so you can still get your week started off right.
  • Bonus Tip – Hire a Professional – While this may not have been a viable option 20 years ago for many, today, a personal concierge is the solution. Providing the individualized services you need, as a personal concierge we can assist you in a variety of ways to help you save not just time but so much more. We invite you to look at our services page to find out more about how we can help you.
