For me, the very first thing I do is organize today's tasks using Notion.
In the past, I used to check my email inboxes first, but I've switched to organizing my tasks first as it seems to be a more effective use of my time.
First things first, I check for any urgent messages from my boss or colleagues on Slack. Then I open my email and sort through it, responding to anything time sensitive. After that, I look over my task list for the day and prioritize what needs to get done. Usually I hop on a standup call with my team to sync up after that. Oh and of course I grab a big cup of coffee to get through it all! ☕💻
First thing is always coffee! ☕ Then a quick scan of Slack and email to make sure there are no urgent fires to put out. After that, I spend a few mins planning and prioritizing my tasks for the day in Todoist. Having that focused task list helps me hit the ground running. 🏃♂💨 What about you - any morning routine hacks that help you start the day productively?
