Before I left I went over my checklists a few times to make sure I had everything and it was stress free each day as I reviewed the lists and checked off the items to bring. The meetings were stress free and I was able to depend on my checklists and templates. It will make my life easier.

Good time management skills can help reduce confusion, stress, and even workload levels, so there are many benefits to making sure that time is well spent. Really great tool for analyzing your productivity. Check: How much time is spent on e-mail? I run the outlook journal and it logs the time I spend with a given task.

I sent another assistant a comical card about being stressed out at work. We work in a very busy office so it was a nice surprise for her to receive it and helped put the stress of the office in perspective. She loved it! I dont often promote any businesses from my blog, but I thought this one was worth talking about.

As an aside, pen and paper will suffice if I have to, but you can see that the checklist can help avoid any unnecessary stresses from happening. Another thing to put on your checklist if you are using a laptop is a memory stick. A memory stick is my back up if my laptop and I part ways.

E-mail has become the most widely used business communication tool and sometimes we are not very smart users of it. Perhaps we put a lot of the stress on ourselves because we feel that every e-mail has to be replied to immediately. The e-mail started out with "Firstly" and ended with "In the future."
