Making the most of time is important in our life. Here are some tips that might be of help to you.
Make a plan. You should make a list of what you want to finish every week. The plan includes things you want to finish. You should know what the most important ones are, and try your best to do them first.
Control your stress. No matter what kind of stress you have, try to keep cool. When you have a lot of things to do, too much stress may make you slow. Don't work all day without breaks.
Focus on one thing at a time. Don't try to do many things at a time! You will lose your focus (注意力), and it will take you longer to finish your work.
Just say "no". If you really don't have the time to help out, just say "no". You're only one person, and you can't save the world by yourself!
Stop wasting time on the phone. While talking on the phone, keep your conversations short. In this way, you'll waste much less time.
Relax. The most important thing is to take time to relax. Even if it's a 10-minute walk, get away from your work and get relaxed.
