Small Wins

After a long break from work — whether from a leave or holidays, it’s always important to get yourself ready before you start Monday. To get your brain ready, you can start with small wins.

You don’t have to really go big on the first day after your break. Start with running through your emails, Notion workspace, Calendar, and any other meeting agendas. From that, you can list down and prioritize your work starting from P0, P1, …, Pn (the less the number, the less effort it takes). Then, you might want to finish up the smaller effort works and make a to-do list out of them. Doing that helps you motivate yourself into winning the bigger project with less exhaustion and that’s always good for your productivity — Most importantly your craft in design.

Do this and your future self will thank you for it.

Cheers.
