A.but everyone has a peak effect time
B.Make an analysis about the ways you could improve your efficiency C.like memorizing English words or making necessary phone calls D.depending on your mentality and physical condition E.That is why we shall save every second and make it count F.Pick three things you must finish today G.Finish as many tasks as possible
