1) Make a list! I ALWAYS have a list of what I am working on for the day/week/month/year. It really gives you perspective to see all your tasks written down on paper. You can take time to prioritize tasks and I think it's fun to check things off as DONE!
2) Listen to music or a podcast (OR DON'T!). Find out what works for you! Do you work better with some background noise? Make sure you have something to listen to. If you find music or podcasts distract you, then make sure you are in a quiet space.

3) Set a timer! Sometimes I will set a timer for 15-20 minutes and tell myself, "I am going to work on this task for the next xx minutes, uninterrupted!" If you have short chunks of time, you might be surprised by how much you can actually get done.
Sometimes it is overwhelming to just THINK about all you have due and coming up. Sometimes I get so frustrated I just choose to do nothing since I don't know where to start. When I take the time to make lists and prioritize, my to-do list seems much more manageable. Find a place to start, and get going!
