7大原因告诉你 为什么你的时间总是不够用?

2013-01-07来源:dumb little man

It is a common complaint, “I don’t have enough time.” In fact, I'd bet that you said these exact words in the last 48 hours. “I don’t have enough time to finish my work/get in shape/start a hobby/spend with my family.”
常听到人们这样的抱怨:“我的时间不够用。” 其实我敢打赌,在过去的48小时内,你肯定也说过下面的这些话:“我时间不够用,没法完成工作/减肥塑身/开始新的习惯/和家人在一起”。

While we all have the same amount of time in the day, why is it that some people seem to accomplish a ton more than you? From the President to the postman, people all have the same time frame but accomplish loads more than in a single day that you seem to accomplish in a week.
我们每个人在一天中的时间都是相等的,那为什么有的人完成的事情却比你要多得多呢?从总统到邮递员,在同一个时间段内,有的人一天完成的工作量可能比你一周能完成的还要多。

7大原因告诉你 为什么你的时间总是不够用?

Why do some struggle and drown in their obligations, while others make the impossible seem effortless? The only difference is how you choose to spend your time. Here are some things to consider so that your days are loaded with accomplishments.
为什么有的人疲于工作忙于应付任务,有的人可能不费吹灰之力就将不可能变成了可能呢?唯一的区别就在于你如何选择使用自己的时间。想要在一天内完成很多,下面的这7件事你需要考虑一下:

1. You Don’t Say No
你不懂拒绝

One of the biggest mistakes people make is to take on burdens that do not belong to them. When you don’t say no, you find yourself doing other people’s work. This happens both in the workplace and in day-to-day life. Ever find yourself doing someone else’s job simply because you couldn’t say no?
很多人犯的最大的错就是背负本不属于自己的负担。因为你不懂拒绝,所以你总是在做别人的工作。不管是在工作中还是日常生活中,这种情况都非常常见。有没有发现你曾经也有过这样的时候:只是因为你没有简单的说一声NO,你就需要做别人的工作?

2. You Don’t Know Your Obligations
你没搞清楚自己的职责所在

How can you tell if you are going to overflow your bucket if you don’t know how full it is? It is common to over commit your time if you are not aware of all your obligations. You need to make a commitment list. List out and budget all of your commitments from work, life, and community. Only then can you know your remaining time balance.
如何让你在不知道水桶有多满的情况去装水,你怎么能判断水会不会溢出来?如果你都不清楚自己的义务到底有多少,你就很可能把自己的时间超常预支出去了,这种情况很常见。你需要制作一个职责承担表,把所有工作、生活和社区服务你需要承担的职责都列出来,做好时间预算。只有这样你才能保证时间平衡。

3. You Have Too Much Life Friction
时间摩擦太多了

Life Friction is self-inflicted time management. In other words, you create your own crises by your own actions and disorganization. Life friction means extra re-work, increased stress, and wasted time. Ever get back from running errands and realize you have to go back out because you forgot something?
时间摩擦是你自己造成的时间管理混乱。换句话说,由于你自己的行为和组织混乱,造成了自身的时间管理危机。时间摩擦意味着额外的重新工作,会给你带来更多压力,也很浪费时间。有没有试过这种情况:正要跑腿去办事又半道折回来,因为你意识到自己忘记了什么事儿不得不回去?
