常聽到人們這樣的抱怨："我的時間不夠用。" 其實我敢打賭，在過去的48小時內，你肯定也說過下面的這些話："我時間不夠用，沒法完成工作/減肥塑身/開始新的習慣/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.
我們每個人在一天中的時間都是相等的，那為什么有的人完成的事情卻比你要多得多呢？從總統(tǒng)到郵遞員，在同一個時間段內，有的人一天完成的工作量可能比你一周能完成的還要多。
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.
為什么有的人疲于工作忙于應付任務，有的人可能不費吹灰之力就將不可能變成了可能呢？唯一的區(qū)別就在于你如何選擇使用自己的時間。想要在一天內完成很多，下面的這7件事你需要考慮一下：
1. You Don’t Say No
你不懂拒絕
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?
很多人犯的最大的錯就是背負本不屬于自己的負擔。因為你不懂拒絕，所以你總是在做別人的工作。不管是在工作中還是日常生活中，這種情況都非常常見。有沒有發(fā)現你曾經也有過這樣的時候：只是因為你沒有簡單的說一聲NO，你就需要做別人的工作？
2. You Don’t Know Your Obligations
你沒搞清楚自己的職責所在
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.
如何讓你在不知道水桶有多滿的情況去裝水，你怎么能判斷水會不會溢出來？如果你都不清楚自己的義務到底有多少，你就很可能把自己的時間超常預支出去了，這種情況很常見。你需要制作一個職責承擔表，把所有工作、生活和社區(qū)服務你需要承擔的職責都列出來，做好時間預算。只有這樣你才能保證時間平衡。
3. You Have Too Much Life Friction
時間摩擦太多了
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?
時間摩擦是你自己造成的時間管理混亂。換句話說，由于你自己的行為和組織混亂，造成了自身的時間管理危機。時間摩擦意味著額外的重新工作，會給你帶來更多壓力，也很浪費時間。有沒有試過這種情況：正要跑腿去辦事又半道折回來，因為你意識到自己忘記了什么事兒不得不回去？
4. You Lolly-gag
你自己浪費光陰
It is amazing that some of the same people that complain they don’t have enough time are the same ones that lolly-gag and waste it. Ever see that person who arrives late to work and then spends the next hour and 15 minutes getting ready to start working? You don’t need to spend every second of the day under a stopwatch, but be aware of when you waste time whether it is gossiping, surfing the Internet, or recapping the weekend for the third time.
有個非常有趣的現象：那些抱怨自己時間不夠的人，恰好正是那些每天浪費光陰消耗時間的人。有沒有看過那種上班遲到還要花上1個小時15分鐘才準備開始工作的人？你當然不用掐著秒表過日子，但是你需要清楚意識到，你是不是把時間浪費聊八卦、上網和第三次總結周末生活這種事情上了？
5. You Don’t Put Your Priorities First
你沒有區(qū)分好優(yōu)先級
Ever finish a busy workday only to think to yourself that you didn’t get anything important done? If you don’t put your priorities first, it won’t matter how fast you work, you may never get to what is important. You have to be able to say, "I am not going to do this, because something else is more important."
有沒有試過在忙完了一天卻發(fā)現自己基本沒有完成什么重要的事情？如果你不把重點事項放在第一位，你工作速度多快都沒什么用，因為你永遠不知道什么才是重要事項。你要學會說："我這會兒不打算做這件事情，因為還有其他更重要的事情再等我完成。"
6. You Try to Do Everything Yourself
你事事想親力親為
We all have the same number of seconds in the day. At a certain point, the only way to get more done is to have someone help. But, some people have trouble letting others do work because they feel that no one can do it as well as they can.
我們每個人每天擁有的時間都是相等的。在某些時候，想要完成得更多，唯一的辦法就是尋求別人的幫助。但是有一些人沒法讓別人來做自己的工作，因為他們覺得沒有人能比自己做得更好。
This can be particularly troublesome when a leader will not let their team do their duties and instead tries to take on everything themselves.
如果一個領導不愿意讓自己的團隊來各行職責而把所有的事情都攬上身，那會是特別麻煩的狀況。
7. You Don’t Finish Things
你沒有把任務做完
When you don’t finish tasks, you are only creating more work for yourself. Tasks undone actually create more work for you. They take more time to pick back up when you return to them. They create unnecessary complications when you leave them to the last minute.
如果你沒完成任務，你其實是在給自己制造更多的工作。沒有完成的工作其實會給你帶來更大的工作量，因為你需要花更多的時間把這個未完的任務重新撿起來再完成。如果你把工作留到最后一刻再完成，可能會造成不必要的復雜情況。
