Here are some tips that help me: Turning off all of the rings, dings, and notifications for email, Slack, and messaging on my phone and computer. It stays in front of me throughout the day on a bright notepad sitting on the right hand side of my keyboard. My brain doesn’t always work the way the rest of my team members’ brains do.

Dust furniture, remove sticky residue and stains from spilled food and drinks, and wipe down phones and keyboards. Extra cushions for your chair and a therapeutic eye pillow may help ease the strain of long hours answering phones, organizing files, and staring at computer screens.

Slack helps you say goodbye to email while keeping all of your teams’ communications and files in one place, wherever you go. I’ve personally used this tool with multiple teams and continue to find more reasons why it’s my favorite messaging app. Just like Twitter, everyone on your team has a unique username prepended by the @ sign.

There is a team behind the amazing conference event. From the first phone call to register for the conference to picking up my name tag, the entire team carried out the professionalism of Joan.

For each step of my process, I have a keyboard shortcut such as CTRL-1, CTRL-2 , CTRL-3, etc. Create a task – I schedule a time to do this e-mail or send the task to someone else on my team.

Back then, any technical problem that I had -- phone, computer, palm pilot (remember, there weren't smart phones back then.), We don't have a team of 100s that can jump to our technical challenges. However, when I went to finish what I was doing, I realized that only part of my keyboard was working.
