Along with distractions, having a messy desktop can slow down your computer. Better to put little used programs/applications into a "Programs" folder. Also, rather than dancing around e-mail, you could try my D-A-F-T system: http://www.legaltypist.com/D-A-F-T. You only look at your inbox to DAFT it, from there you determine how much time you need to deal with each item and you block off the time in your calendar to complete if an item takes more than 2 minutes. Getting lots of positive feedback re: D-A-F-T (and it's free)! :) HTH. Andrea (aka LegalTypist) Great tips Larry!
