  3. Find the right playlist. It can get you in the right mindset better than anything else, it’s just up to you what genre you choose.

  5. Set both short-term and long-term goals. You function best when you have the big picture in mind; after all, short-term goals are just steps to accomplish your long-term goals.

Check emails or other written communications before you send them. This is especially important if you’re stressed or in a hurry.
