When faced with pending tasks, it's important to prioritize and plan your time effectively. Start by making a to-do list and identifying the most urgent or important tasks. Break down larger tasks into smaller, manageable steps. Set realistic deadlines for each task and allocate dedicated time blocks to work on them. Eliminate distractions and create a conducive work environment. Use productivity tools or techniques like the Pomodoro Technique to stay focused and motivated. Delegate tasks if possible, or seek help when needed. Finally, celebrate small victories along the way to maintain momentum and motivation.
