Answer:

Tackle your hardest task first

Step-by-step explanation:

Wake up and do the hard task (eat the frog) before anything else. It suggests that getting the hardest task done first is the most productive use of the day. For many, it means the rest of the day is less stressful. For some, it may be the excuse for leaving work (indigestion from a bad frog).
