This year I decided to offer holiday shoppers a bit more time to explore possible gift ideas for the productivity enthusiast — aka the "productivityist" — in their lives.

Keep your calendar for the broad strokes and your to-do list for the finer details. Time is a gift; use it for what truly matters. Set up an email vacation message before you go on holiday. Use a wall calendar for a bird’s-eye view of your year. Use tools that separate your work and personal email.

For those of you have been in a shopping mall recently, I'm sure you've noticed the holiday decorations that hit the stores sometime after Flag Day in July. Folders should be labeled "delete," "do it now," "respond today," "schedule a specific time on calendar," "waiting for response," "file it," "someday" and "freedom."

Try to set up the communication of the office so your boss checks their own emails and responds, but you are in charge of all the mtg coordination, phones, and anything that happens in the office. Tech glitches happen all the time and 2 people controlling one person's calendar is not the easiest thing.

In my case, that meant removing/deactivating all social networking, communication, and calendar-type apps. I don''t use Drafts for messaging or email composition. Dispatch is my email app of choice and Messages works just fine for those purposes and I don''t use Drafts for calendar entry.

Money/gifts contributions etiquette. When it comes to donating money to causes, gifts, or anything else where a lot of people are also pitching in, don’t be shy to ask how much everyone else is contributing. In the past, one of my executives would burn a CD of holiday music and gave those out. I say this: Me: __’s office.

Add dated or calendar items to a tickler file system or a diary as soon as they arrive. To be more productive, allocate 15 minutes each week. Initially it may take you longer to catch up if you have a large pile, but 15 minutes is manageable. We all can find this much time in our schedules.
