The saying goes - win the morning, win the day. But, if you’re anything like me - your morning will be determined by your inbox, who calls first or what’s been dropped in your lap that day.

Productivity expert Donna McGeorge says this way of working is a big mistake and could see the quality of your work suffer, not to mention the extra hours spent at your desk later in the day.

So how can we take back control, maximise our time & spend less of it working?

Donna is my guest today & she’s the author of The First 2 Hours: Make Better Use of Your Most Valuable Time.
