Hello listeners and welcome back to The Career Woman's Secret Playbook Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Dawn, CEO/Founder of Dr. Dawn ShopTalk and today we're tackling a topic that is often times seen as a critical skill in the workplace – multitasking.

We all know it’s important to be able to multi-task well, but how do we do it without spreading ourselves too thin, getting overwhelmed and ultimately hurting the quality of our work and our peace of mind? THAT is what today’s episode is all about and if you follow these 7 steps, and in this order, you will be on your way!

Step #1: Prioritize with Purpose – the key to successful multi-tasking is to know your priorities. Take a moment to identify your most critical goals/tasks for the week, month and even year.

Step #2: Create a Master Schedule – once you know your priorities, it’s now time to create a master schedule so that you can create blocks of time to get it all done.

Step #3: Batch Similar Tasks – an efficient way to do this is to batch tasks that are similar (return emails at one time of day; phone calls at another time, for example). That way, your brain doesn’t have to switch from one type of activity to another.

Step #4: Set Boundaries – Make sure you let colleagues, family and friends know when you need focused uninterrupted time.

Step #5: Embrace Technology Wisely – use technology to your advantage instead of letting it distract and interrupt you.

Step #6: Practice Mindfulness – take a mental break by incorporating mindful meditations and exercises throughout your workday.

Step #7: Learn to Say No – saying no to something that is not aligned with your goals or is just something you don’t have time to get to is saying YES to yourself.

Tune in to today’s episode to get ALL the details about these steps and you too will be able to multi-task WITHOUT spreading yourself too thin and feeling overwhelmed.
