5 Productivity Tips for Already Busy People - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / 5 Productivity Tips for Already Busy People - Introvert Whisperer 5 Productivity Tips for Already Busy People Julie B June 3, 2015 Career Development No responses Go to top Being extremely busy does not mean that some things have to be left undone. These tips show you how it is possible to accomplish more in less time by preparing to deal with tasks, avoid time-wasting distractions, handle emails efficiently, manage staff and save time on meetings. 1. Divide Your Tasks Be realistic about how much you can get done in a day. Break up a big project into separate tasks when making a list of jobs to be completed, and consider if any of them can be delegated or outsourced. A good way to deal with a big workload is to decide on completing one major task in the morning, followed by three medium-sized tasks and five shorter ones. With one big task completed, you should feel a sense of achievement and find it easier to get through less time-consuming tasks. 2. Manage Your Time Make a list of tasks that you can get through quickly, such as report reading and answering emails, and allocate small chunks of time for getting these done. Space in between meetings or while waiting for an appointment can be ideal times to get odd jobs done. You will increase productivity by setting strict deadlines for each primary task that you need to complete, whether or not these already have a fixed completion date. You can manage staff with HR software. This will allow you time to spend less time on admin and more time on pro-active management. 3. Become Email Efficient Restrict the number of times you check your emails during the day by setting specific points in the day for doing this. Rather than spending time on responding first thing in the morning, try to leave this task until you have completed something on your to-do list. (Tweet this!) Set up an automatic filter that will send things like newsletters into a separate folder, so you can look at them when you have more time available. If you regularly receive queries that involve frequently asked questions, use an autoresponder to send out an instant response with a set of answers or relevant information. Keeping your responses short will save time. If you take too long to respond to emails you will have to begin each one with an apology for the delay. You can save time by answering emails with a brief message stating that the sender can expect to get a response from you within the next 48 hours. 4. Cut Down on Meetings Efficient management of meetings will help you to be more productive when you have a big project to work on. Try to keep at least one day a week entirely free from meetings, so you can focus more on what needs to be done. When possible, arrange meetings in groups, so you can go directly from one to another, and take control to ensure that each meeting stays on topic and reaches a conclusion within its allotted time. When a meeting has to be arranged outside your workplace, consider whether it is really necessary to be there in person or whether a conference call or video conference would save time and accomplish the same result. 5. Take Action to Avoid Distractions Prevent other people from distracting you with non-urgent questions or trivial chatter when you need to wall yourself off. Make sure your office door stays closed or wear headphones while you work. Even if you are not listening to anything, people are less likely to try telling you anything that is not important when they can see that you have headphones on. If you use an internal messaging system, send a ‘Do Not Disturb’ message stating when you will be available again. Stay offline when doing work that does not require use of the Internet. When you do need to be online, disable your auto-logins for the social media sites you use, or get an app that you can set to block access to your favourite social network during your hours of work. Switch off your mobile phone and turn off any device that pings when you receive a message. Keep your workspace free from clutter. You will achieve more by staying focused on one thing at a time, instead of trying to multitask. Go to top What are some of your best productivity tips? Share with us in the comments!

Equivalent Decimals

Equivalent Decimals We can say decimals are a kind of fractional numbers. For example, the decimal 0.5 represents the fraction 5/10. We know 5/10 is equivalent to 1/2. In other words we can say decimal number is a number which contains decimal point. It has whole part and decimal part. We can say digits before decimal as whole part and the digits after decimal as decimal part. We have some rules to write the equivalent decimals. Those are, an equivalent decimal has same digits after the decimal point. If we add a number zero at the end of decimal digits the value of that number will not change. If we add zeros before the whole number the value of the number will not change. And the important thing is the place value of a decimal will not change. Example 1: check the decimal 0.45 is equivalent to 00.4500 Solution: Given decimal is 0.45 We need to find the place values of these two decimals First we can find the place values of 0.45 4 is tenth place and 5 is at hundredth place .(1) Now we can find the place values of the digits of 00.4500 The place value of 4 is tenths and place value of 5 is hundredth ..(2) From (1) and (2), The place values of the digits are same. So the given decimals are equivalent. Example 2: check the decimal 0.5 is equivalent to 00.500 Solution: Given decimal is 0.5 We need to find the place values of these two decimals First we can find the place values of 0.5 5 is tenth place .(1) Now we can find the place values of the digits of 00.500 The place value of 5 is tenths ..(2) From (1) and (2), The place values of the digits are same. So the given decimals are equivalent.

A Day in the Life at Oregon State University

A Day in the Life at Oregon State University Melissa, who specializes in English tutoring, writing tutoring, and a number of other subjects, shared her college experience below. She earned her bachelors degree in psychology from Oregon State University in 2012. Check out what she had to say: Describe the campus setting and transportation options. Melissa: I did my undergraduate work at Oregon State University in Corvallis, Oregon. The town had around 60,000 people and the school had around 18,000 students. The University was a huge part of the community and public transportation was free for all OSU students. I usually took the city bus or rode my bike around campus. Corvallis is a safe place and OSU has a very nice campus that is both pedestrian and bicycle friendly. How available are the professors, academic advisers, and teaching assistants? Melissa: Overall, I think the professors and advisers make themselves available, but it depends on the department. I had problems when I was taking statistics with TAs not being available and that was really frustrating. I ended up getting a tutor and did really well, but I really needed the extra help. How would you describe the dorm liferooms, dining options, location, socialization opportunities with other students? Melissa: I lived about a mile off campus. The dining halls were really nice and provided many choices for students and staff. They were almost always busy during day and were a great place to meet friends. Which majors/programs are best represented and supported? Melissa: The College of Engineering, Business, Geoscience, and Fish and Wildlife were the big programs at OSU. I started out studying business and psychology. While taking general requirements, I didnt feel like there was a lot of support, but within the departments, professors seemed more invested and did a good job of providing support for students. The College of Business had a lot of tools and resources to support students with computer labs, internships, and scholarships. How easy or difficult was it for you to meet people and make friends as a freshman? Does Greek life play a significant role in the campus social life? Melissa: At first it was hard for me to make friends and get to know people. Greek life is huge at OSU. I was a member of Phi Theta Kappa and Sigma Kappa Delta at my previous school and I didnt pledge once I got to OSU. There were a lot of big events, game day activities, and things to do on the quad and at the Memorial Union, but I was really busy with work and school so I wasnt able to fully participate. Over time, I made friends with people who I had classes with a lot and through study groups, which was really nice. How helpful is the Career Centerand other student support services? Melissa: The Career Center was always holding big events and recruiting opportunities, but the student support I found most helpful was through the library. The library was open 24 hours a day, and had so many student services including scanning books into digital files, access to online articles, and study rooms. How are the various study areas such aslibraries, the student union, and dorm lounges? Melissa: There are so many places to study on campus at OSU! The Valley Library is huge! The coffee shop in the basement was one of my favorite places to study. I also liked the MU. The buildings are all huge and even though they are busy, they provide enough seating to accommodate a lot of students comfortably. Describe the surrounding town. Melissa: Downtown is a short distance from campus and is a popular destination for students, especially on weekends. There are small shops, coffee shops, restaurants, parks, and a river. Just outside of town, there are great places to go hiking like Marys Peak, Bald Hill, and Peavy Arboretum. How big or small is the student body? Were you generally pleased or displeased with the typical class sizes? Melissa: The student body was big with around 18,000 students. The popular required classes like math and statistics were really big and had between 100 and 150 students per section and those professors usually taught several sections and had several hundred students. In those classes it was impossible to get help from the professors. The upper division classes usually had between 25 and 50. I liked the small classes a lot better. Most of my classes were smaller and I was pleased with the size. Describe one memorable experience with a professor and/or class. Perhaps one you loved the most or one youregretthe most. Melissa: My favorite class at OSU was Geo 300. The professor (Dr. Cook) was one of the most informed people Ive ever met and his lectures were awesome. Although the class was on resource management, he touched on every element of life including personal enrichment, history, politics, business, and ecology. Every year he took a group of students to Albania to work in a village, where he had a library and he would personally fund a scholarship for one student from that village who excelled. He encouraged me and inspired me through his teaching. He was an amazing person and an excellent teacher. Check out Melissas tutoring profile.

5 Horrible Solo Albums From Famous Musicians

5 Horrible Solo Albums From Famous Musicians Mac Going solo isnt easy.  Once you leave a famous band, its hard to achieve  the same level of success on your own. In this article, Jessica Kane from SoundStageDirect  discusses  five solo albums from famous musicians that just  didnt cut it There are unknown reasons as to why some famous musicians feel the need to try to wing it on their own. Some have found great success upon breaking away from their band, while others have only put more nails in their creative coffins. Ready to hear what many consider some of the worst albums by solo artists? Here are five horrible solo albums from famous musicians: 1) Gone Troppo by George Harrison The Beatles are perhaps the most famous rock band of all time. Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr have all had successful and well-received solo albums in their post-Beatles lives. However, Gone Troppo by Harrison is one of the weakest releases of the bunch. To say that George Harrison is full of talent is a massive understatement, but his charm, skill, and focus fell short with this album. Its generally regarded as underwhelming and does not capture the magic that Harrison has brought to other albums. Listen to the title track and hear a part of George you havent  heard before: 2) Two Sides of the Moon by Keith Moon Keith Moon is known as one of the most iconic and powerful drummers in rock history. His thunderous hammering can be heard across all of The Whos powerhouse albums of the 1960s and 1970s. Two Sides of the Moon delivers you on a half hour journey to a much too dark side of Moon that is best left unexplored. The tracks on this album are as lifeless as the actual moon. Keith Moon, while a savage drummer, is a pitiful solo artist. He lacks the talent of most famous singers, and despite an impressive lineup that includes Joe Walsh, Ringo Starr, and a rumored David Bowie,  Two Sides of the Moon plays more like a strung-out mishap. This is what happens when you let someone as wild as Keith Moon alone to his own devices inside of a recording studio, with the intention to do a vocal cover album. 3) This Time by Melanie C The Spice Girls treated the world to energetic, fun, and sexy pop music that bred a cult of millions of Spice wannabes and fashion-deficit followers. Sporty Spice, or Melanie C, tried to capture some of that same success in a post-Spice Girl world but fell flat  on her face. While not one of the worst albums of the last 100 years, This Time is just unoriginal and dull. This was Melanies fourth solo effort and one of her weakest. In contrast, Northern Star was a solid pop experience that had good energy and lasting themes. Let your bleeding ears check it out here: 4) Who I Am by Nick Jonas This album deserves to be ranked among the worst albums of all time on every list of bad albums, ever. The Jonas Brothers are known for their cute pop rock that caters to pre-pubescent teen girls. Nick Jonas tried to set himself apart with this edgy attempt at a solo album. The blues is universal, as everyone feels suffering and angst, but Jonas needs to keep out of the blues world. This track is all the reason to stop listening to Nick Jonas: 5) Oh Yes I Can by David Crosby David Crosby is perhaps best known for his influential work with the supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, but as a solo artist, hes been hit and miss. Oh Yes I Can is a definite miss. Released in 1989, this album does not bring the listener the same deep emotional satisfaction that was found in previous releases. Crosby is an excellent songwriter and performer, but he should have kept this one to himself. The impact he found in other hits is missing from this release. Conclusion Youve just experienced five horrible solo albums  back to back. Hopefully your ears are recovering now! If you want to avoid making horrible solo albums yourself, schedule a lesson with a private music instructor and get better at your craft today! Know any other horrible albums from famous musicians?
