She was working long hours\u2014most of them spent sitting in meetings and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/toolsskills\/how-to-nicely-train-people-to-send-you-less-email\/\">dealing with hundreds of emails<\/a>\u2014then rushing last-minute to finish marketing campaigns, which always seemed to turn into fire drills.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/career\/should-we-bring-back-the-40-hour-work-week\/\">always on\u201d mentality was getting to her<\/a>. And she was ready to quit.<\/p>\n<p>I immediately saw that Tricia was missing the most essential job skill I believe every employee must have: priority setting and management. That is, the ability to clearly identify the most important priorities and to focus the vast majority of your energy and time on those things.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, though we often talk about\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/toolsskills\/5-productivity-tips-from-the-busiest-people-in-the-world\/\">time management and productivity<\/a>\u00a0in the office, the art of prioritization is often lost. As a result, many people end up like Tricia: exhausted, frustrated, and burnt out.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed by excessive hours and constantly shifting to-dos, here are a few telltale signs that you might need to manage your priorities better\u2014and some easy ways to get back on track.<\/p>\n<h1>Sign #1: You Believe That Everything is Important<\/h1>\n<p>If you look at your to-do list and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/career\/feeling-overwhelmed-6-ways-to-take-control-of-your-workload\/\">see everything as equally important<\/a>, it\u2019s easy to become overwhelmed with your volume of tasks, rather than the quality\u00a0of your work. But consider this: The\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinnicle.com\/Articles\/Pareto_Principle\/pareto_principle.html\">Pareto Principle<\/a>\u00a0suggests that 20% of your tasks produce 80% of your results\u2014and that means that a small fraction of your daily work deserves the majority of your attention.<\/p>\n<p>In Tricia\u2019s case, she was accepting every meeting invitation she received. But that didn\u2019t mean the meetings were worth her time or helped her accomplish any of her primary goals.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"solution-get-clear-on-your-goals-and-objectives\">Solution: Get Clear on Your Goals and Objectives<\/h2>\n<p>Work with your manager to get a crystal clear idea of exactly how your performance will be assessed (e.g., will you be reviewed based on the dollar amount you brought in or the satisfaction level of your clients?). Once you have a better handle on your deliverables, you can break them down into weekly goals.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if your ultimate goal is to generate new revenue, then your primary focus should be on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/job-search\/how-not-to-annoy-your-contacts-when-youre-asking-for-help\/\">following up with leads<\/a>\u00a0you got at a trade show and building relationships with potential customers\u2014not spending hours each week helping plan the next trade show.<\/p>\n<p>As you make decisions about work throughout each day, ask yourself, \u201cHow will this get me closer to my goals?\u201d If it doesn\u2019t, put it down and move on.<\/p>\n<h1>Sign #2: You\u2019re Consumed by Activity Rather Than Accomplishments<\/h1>\n<p>Have you ever started with a list at the beginning of the day, felt busy all day, but\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/career\/4-ways-youre-lying-to-yourself-about-being-productive\/\">left feeling like you didn\u2019t get anything done<\/a>? Frustrating, right? Tricia was certainly busy, but she wasn\u2019t accomplishing much.<\/p>\n<p>In reality, you probably got many low priority things done\u2014like clicking through unimportant emails,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/toolsskills\/from-chaos-to-control-how-to-lead-super-productive-meetings\/\">sitting through inefficient meetings<\/a>, or doing small tasks that don\u2019t move your important work forward. Maybe you spent the day on projects helping your boss or co-workers, but not getting your own work done.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"solution-make-a-daily-plan-and-stick-to-it\">Solution: Make a Daily Plan and Stick to It<\/h2>\n<p>Create a daily plan that starts with\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/career\/the-secret-to-getting-more-done-in-less-time\/\">scheduling your most important work<\/a>. Those priority activities get first crack at your calendar, before you even think of doing anything else.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re most likely to complete certain tasks when you carve out a specific date and time commitment to them. If email is a constant distraction, turn it off, and only check it at two or three specific times each day. (When you\u2019re entrenched in worked and get distracted by reading an email, it takes a full 64 seconds\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/lifehacker.com\/5048463\/single-email-interruption-recovery-time-over-a-minute\">for your focus to recover<\/a>. Think about that: You\u2019re losing more than a minute of valuable time for every email you read while in the midst of important work!)<\/p>\n<h1>Sign #3: When You Get to the Important Work, You Get Distracted<\/h1>\n<p>You hear the continuous \u201cding\u201d of incoming emails, texts, and instant messages and feel compelled to peek. You constantly get distracted by the siren call of social media.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/career\/today-not-tomorrow-4-ways-to-stop-procrastinating\/\">Procrastination keeps you from starting<\/a>\u00a0and perfectionism keeps you from finishing. And you mistakenly think that by multi-tasking, you\u2019re getting more done in the same amount of time. Sound familiar?<\/p>\n<p>Multitasking to some extent is inevitable, but remember: Even if you\u2019re able to narrow down your work to the most important tasks, you won\u2019t be able to make any progress if you can\u2019t focus for long enough to finish them.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"solution-develop-your-ability-to-focus\">Solution: Develop Your Ability to Focus<\/h2>\n<p>Once you\u2019re clear on the priority work that needs to get done, learn how to get\u2014and stay\u2014<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/career\/3-simple-ways-to-improve-your-focus\/\">focused on those tasks<\/a>. Try these go-to strategies:<\/p>\n<p>1. Chunk Your Work:\u00a0Use the Pomodoro technique to schedule 25-minute time slots to work on priority tasks. Don\u2019t look up until the time is over, then take a short break. Repeat four times, then take a longer break.<\/p>\n<p>2. Batch Your Work:\u00a0Group similar tasks together in blocks of time on your calendar, so you can focus on one thing and get it done. Activities like processing email, returning phone calls, or reviewing documents can be grouped together and done in batches.<\/p>\n<p>3. Stop Multi-tasking:\u00a0In the end, each task will take longer\u2014and you\u2019ll compromise the quality of your work to boot.<\/p>\n<p>As you go through the day, do frequent reality checks: Stop each hour and quickly ask yourself:\u00a0<i>Did the last hour contribute to my most important goals?<\/i>\u00a0If not,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailymuse.com\/toolsskills\/need-to-get-work-done-fast-its-time-for-beast-mode\/\">vow to make the next 60 minutes better<\/a>\u00a0and start again. If you do a reality check each hour, you\u2019ll never let an entire day get away from you.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, track your success. End each day with a review of what you accomplished and how it moved you toward your most essential deliverables. This makes it easier to let the other\u2014nonessential\u2014things go.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re ready to take back control of your work life, remember that it\u2019s not about time management or productivity. The point isn\u2019t to get it all done\u2014it\u2019s to get the most\u00a0<i>important<\/i>\u00a0work done. I like to keep\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.asianefficiency.com\/habits\/eat-that-frog-most-important-tasks-morning\/\">Brian Tracy\u2019s advice<\/a>\u00a0in mind: \u201cIt\u2019s not the time you spend working overall, but the amount of time you spend working on high priority tasks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"finalnote\">This story originally appeared in \t<link href=\"https:\/\/www.themuse.com\/advice\/the-job-skill-you-need-that-nobody-talks-about\" rel=\"canonical\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.themuse.com\/advice\/the-job-skill-you-need-that-nobody-talks-about\">The Muse.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Far too many clients come to me at an \u201cI can\u2019t take it anymore\u201d stage of their career.
