I find that I'm slow at completing tasks because I get easily distracted or take time to think things through carefully. Because I'm insecure about this I often feel the need to eat hours. What to do?

Speed drills. That time is leaking somewhere. You can improve that concentration. I have the same issue. Also if you have depression you need to address the drag it creates. Poor concentration is a side effect of that too.

Yes. What you do is set a timer in your iPhone or any timer and say “I will do X task in Y time.” Did you meet the target or no? Where did it leak? Do this iteratively until you meet your goals without compromising too much on time. Or understand why you took so much longer and miss the mark so you can mitigate for it.

Alternatively you can elect to perform a repetitive task in Y time then decrease the time and streamline. This method does a disservice because you are faster by virtue of scale usually.

I am working from EU since last year (internal transfer from India), also doing freelancing for an another startup since last 2 years and the payment is going to Indian account.
My employer assigned a tax consulting company in India to support me in filing tax, somehow the tax consulting firm found that bank account via AIS document (not sure how they get it in that doc), as they found some interest credited for that saving account. Will I be in trouble? will I have to pay penalty :(?
