Evernote lands a spot on nearly every “my favorite apps” list I read and this is why – it helps you capture, manage, store and most importantly remember everything!

To combat these problems, here are some tips you can follow: Boredom: Ask your manager or fellow colleagues to see if they need help with anything. Youre there to get paid and get that promotion or raise, so make yourself and your manager proud. People generally gossip at work due to boredom, insecurity, wanting to belong.

Then, you need to assign tasks to each goal, where you break the goal down into manageable chunks. Narrow them down to the amount that you can manage (usually 3 - 5), but some people can do more or less. Having a to-do list can be very helpful in accomplishing your tasks, but also setting goals. Next, add a time frame to each task.

If they prompt you to get it done right away (if this is not your immediate supervisor), make sure to let your manager know. They are there to help, since they are managing you. If you feel that your manager thinks of you this way, talk to them about it, but in a professional manner. Dont feel that you are not doing your job.
