Assigning time should be the first thing in the morning so that you know what you need to do for the rest of the day.

Make time to think

That’s why Jeff Weiner, CEO of LinkedIn, take 90 minutes to 2 hours buffers in his day where he doesn’t do anything but only thinks so that he can do a great job.
