Hi everyone!! This is exactly the group I've been looking for. I'll be starting my new (and first) consulting job at ZS Associates at the end of the month and I'm so nervous that I'll crash and burn. I'm very proud to be an ENFP, but the flaws that come along with it (distraction, procrastination, disorganization) seem like a recipe for disaster. I'm not sure if I should spend this next month trying to change my habits or if I should just embrace it. Anyway, what advice do you all have?

Hello! The best tool I have used by far is mind mapping. I use a free piece of software called XMind which is incredibly easy to use and I usually have about 10 tabs open at once! As soon as I feel scattered I create a map and just keep adding to it throughout the day and deleting as I complete the tasks. It’s also great for presentations as you can create the structure in chronological order, and then you can always toggle it to a document or table if you want to share it with anyone. I hope this helps!
