把握住时间:10分钟内可以完成的10件小事

2013-01-27来源:互联网
Read 10 pages in a book
读十页书

Whether it is in the doctor’s office or the car dealership, use that time to read a few pages. Some people carry a book with them for these moments. Personally, with my iPhone or iPad, I always have books at my fingertips to keep me occupied.
不管是在医生的办公室还是在汽车专营店,用这点时间来读几页书。有些人会随身带一本书来利用这段时间。就我个人而言,我会把书籍下载到我的iphone或者ipad里面,随时充实自己。

Write
写点什么

You will be surprised how much you can write in 10 minutes. Write a memo. Start a blog post. Whatever you need to get done.
你可能会疑惑,这十分钟能写什么啊。写一下备忘录。写点博客。任何你想写的东西都可以。

Prepare
准备

Get ready for a future appointment. Look at tomorrow’s calendar. Is there any prep work you need to do? It could be as simple as getting some documents together or researching a topic.
为一会要来的约会做准备。看下明天的日历表,有没有什么需要你准备做的事情吗?有可能会是像把一些文件准备到一起,或者准备研究一个话题这样简单的事情。

Reflect
反思

Spend the few moments, reflecting on your day. What you have accomplished? What has made you happy today? What you still need to address?
花几分钟来反思一下这一天。你完成了什么?什么事情让你今天很开心?还有什么事情需要你处理?

Reach Out & Touch Someone
走出去和某人说说话

In these days of email, Twitter, text msgs, and more… it has become increasingly rare to actually communicate in person. When I find I have a 10 minute block of time to spare, I will walk down the hall and speak to someone face-to-face that I normally would not see.
在今天,邮件、推特、短信还有更多和人联系的方式,人们缺乏与别人面对面的交流。当我发现我还有10分钟的时间时,我会在大厅里走走,和一些我平时不怎么碰面的人面对面交流。

Do Nothing
什么也不做

Of course, you could just waste the 10 minutes surfing the net or checking the news. Unfortunately, too many people choose this last option.
当然,你也可以完全用上网和刷新闻来打发时间。不幸的是很多人都选择了这样做。

What do you do with your 10 minutes? Or do you let them slip by?
你在这10分钟内会做什么呢?还是让时间从你指尖溜走?
