The Admin Hub How do you prioritize tasks and stay organized as an admin?

[uptrend]

Being an admin is not as easy as it seems to so many people, especially when messages and tasks are piling up. Personally, I like to jot things down and rate them from what is most important to what can wait to be done the next day. If I don’t prioritize the top three important tasks daily, I’d be hopping from one task to another, wasting my precious time.

How do you keep things organized without losing your mind?

I use a comprehensive to-do lists and checkboxes. Every morning, I write dowm the tasks that I must complete before the end of the day. So, everything other things that comes after that are just bonuses.

I not only run two forums but I am also administrator on a few. As an admin, my main concern is to get quality posters. I don't want people who do not post quality content, I want people who can contribute to the discussion. As an admin, I try to make priorities like building content, building memberbase, promoting, and all sorts of things.

I didn't run any forum community but I know managing one must be incredibly overwhelming with everything coming at you at once.

I’m new to forum administration, even though I’ve used forums for years. I focus on learning as I go, in fact I am learning trial amd error. I am trying to prioritize urgent tasks first and then gradually organize routines, while observing what works for more experienced admins.

I use an app on my phone called TickTick, which is a to-do app. It alerts me when I need to complete my tasks. Forums and posting is a part of it.

This helps me stay ahead with everything I do.
