Even if you phone the bank they need your secret passcode or they wont speak to you about your account. I purchased a small address book in which I can keep the website address along with my user name and/or password for each particular site. I keep mine in an encrypted Word file on my computer. Thanks everyone for your input.

Try to anticipate the need so you can have the file or the answer your boss needs, before he or she even knows they need it. Be professional on the phone and greet people who come calling, but not everyone needs to get in to see the boss. I finally had a chance to sit down and read your book over the holiday. Excellent material!

When I receive an initial request for a meeting, I use a meeting form and write down the information I need: who is requesting the meeting, what is the purpose of the meeting, where it will be held and a phone number or an e-mail address and dates that are available. When a meeting is finalized, I put the scheduling sheet in a completed file.

Ctrl + Home moves the cursor to the beginning of the open file or document and Ctrl + End moves the cursor to the end of the open file or document, but if you are in the middle of a document and want to select everything from there down, press Ctrl + Shift + End or if you want to select everything from there up, press Ctrl + Shift + Home.

I have a network of assistants that I call friends, although some are just phone colleagues, but we help each other. If you know what works best for you and if your job is 80/20 on what you like then you can put up with the small stuff like filing and filling out expense forms. GET TO KNOW YOUR CO-WORKERS. We are not an island.

Tried and True Method: I set up 12 hanging file folders labelled January through to December. I then put the items in a two-fold file folder with his calendar printed out on the one side and the items he will need for the day on the other side. I finally had a chance to sit down and read your book over the holiday. Thats great!
