    I am a perfectionist! One thing that allows me to double-check my work quickly is creating checklists, I can check everything off twice when I prepare the travel and then at then after entering it into our system. Also, Grammarly! I cannot live without it. It allows me to quickly check for grammatical or spelling errors as well as the tone of any correspondence.

    Making Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) also works. There are many ways to create it such as Gantt chart and google sheets where you can share with your colleagues. What makes WBS special is that you can set the person in charge, task status, and mark the date or duration in color. Also, if you share it with your colleagues online, you all can update it together timely.

    Love from Nigeria, I just landed a job as an EA to the ceo of an interior company, I don’t have any prior experience but they believe in me, but I am kinda nervous. Could you do an updated video for beginners in the EA sector(tips and tricks). It would be very much appreciated 💗

      I believe that you will be successful just for the fact that you are eager to learn. I am too. I was recently let go of my position and have decided to seek work as an Administrative Assistant or EA. I have some experience from the past but want to learn as much. WIshing you well in your EA position.

    Thank you and truly wonderful advice. I simply can’t do inbox zero management. I’ve tried several times over the years and there is never a time when I have all the folders I need or know the classifications of every single outstanding item. I’d rather use my advanced search skills in my inbox that attempt the perfect filing system, but then I’ve always been an “out of sight, out of mind” person, which explains the way my desk appears:)

    And I thought I was the only one who was pedantic about my inbox lol. I work exactly the same. (Except the "done" box. It usually goes to it's folder which if it's a once off, probably under miscellaneous). I also work with Trello. Great minds think alike!
