Take action on the tasks that you have determined that you need to do today or this week. I suggest not picking more than 5 items from your task list per day. You need to be your own judge of how many items you can reasonably get accomplished when you are juggling the other daily demands of meetings, e-mails, phone calls and interruptions. Initially, select 5 items from your task list, but you might need to reduce that amount depending on your job and workload.
