When it comes to time management, it seems even the most efficient among us could use a little help, not to mention the rest of us mere mortals who routinely end the day with an even longer to do list looming.  With that in mind, I give you permission to spend a few minutes perusing[“Ten ways to save time in the office every day”](http://www.ciphr.com/blog/10-ways-to-save-time-in-the-office-every-day/) by Barry Chignell, in hopes that it will be time well spent!

Some of my favorite tips on the list…

#4 Listen to music through headphones to cancel out distracting office noises. It’s relaxing and makes you more productive.

# 7 Stand during meetings to avoid getting so comfortable you linger to discuss topics not on the agenda.  
Check out the entire list [here](http://www.ciphr.com/blog/10-ways-to-save-time-in-the-office-every-day/).
