Tackle Your Toughest Task First
Identify your 'frog' – the most important or challenging task you tend to procrastinate on. Start your day by dedicating the first 60-90 minutes exclusively to this task. Don't check emails or notifications until it's done or significantly progressed. Break it into smaller, actionable steps if overwhelming.

Completing your most difficult task early builds momentum and reduces mental burden. This strategy leverages your peak morning energy and willpower, preventing decision fatigue later. It ensures critical work gets done, creating a sense of accomplishment and freeing up mental space for other tasks, ultimately boosting overall productivity and focus.
