If you\u2019re like most people, your days are filled with demands, distractions, and interruptions. It can be frustrating wading through the never-ending tasks on the table. If you\u2019re to make any headway, you can\u2019t give your attention to everyone and everything. You have to identify exactly what needs your attention and what doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n
