Take note of the tasks these high functioning, productive, and more awake employees have completed before lunch:
1. They make a work to-do list the day before
2. They get a full night's rest
3. They avoid hitting snooze
4. They exercise
5. They practie a morning ritual
6. They eat breakfast
7. They arrive at the office on time
8. They check in with their boss and/or employees
9. They tackle the big projects first
10. They avoid morning meetings
11. They allot time for following up on messages
12. They take a mid-morning break
The best employees will respect their employe's time, and the worst-performing employees will find a way to waste time even if the company forbids personal internet use.
