Explanation:

- The sentence in question is about time management for tasks within a workday.

- Option 1: "had" - This suggests a past tense scenario, which does not fit since the sentence is dealing with a present or habitual action.

- Option 2: "have" - This is present tense and indicates a current state or condition, which fits well as the sentence talks about managing tasks presently.

- Option 3: "will have" - This is future tense and implies that the work is expected in the future, which doesn't match the context of currently having tasks.

- Option 4: "are having" - This is present continuous tense, usually indicating an ongoing activity, which seems awkward given the context.
