Help with being organised at work

[PlaceYourItemInTheBaggingArea]

I've got so much to do at work. I will be in the middle of one thing, the phone will ring with an urgent request and I'll have to deal with that, then I'll get staff coming in the office with really important stuff. I'm managing all the important stuff but the small things are beginning to slip.

I do have a lot to do but I know I will be fine if I can just organise myself better. I use reminders on Outlook, sticky notes and a to do/tick list. I prioritise what I can but work in a fast paced place that is naturally chaotic due to the industry.

AIBU to ask you for your best tried and tested tips?

The ‘do it now’ strategy. Instead of always revisiting and reorganising your list just ‘do it now’. First thing you see on there just get it done. You’ll work through things quicker
