都說時間寶貴，但你真的學會珍惜它了嗎？

每一個努力的人

如果你是個百歲老人，你的一生大概會有36500天。一天之中，我們至少有6個小時睡覺，3小時吃飯，至少1個小時堵在路上，8個小時上班，那麼留給你自由安排的時間不足6小時。這6小時你可以刷手機，打遊戲，追劇，逛街，發獃，打掃衛生……當然，你也可以什麼都不做就只荒廢過去。

每個人對自己的時間都有著絕對的掌控權，只是當你意識到時間寶貴，希望你已學到了節約它的方法。

下面的時間管理小技巧很適合在周三的晚上為你增加一點工作日的續航能力。

Delegate Tasks

委派任務

It is common for all of us to take more tasks than our desired potential. This can often result in stress and burnout. Delegation is not running away from your responsibilities but is an important function of management. Learn the art of delegating work to your subordinates as per their skills and abilities.

我們或多或少都遇過多得超出承受範圍的任務，並因此壓力重重、精疲力竭。委派任務並不是逃避責任，而是一種管理技巧。根據下屬各自的優勢長處，你可以考慮把任務分派給他們。

Prioritize Work

優先次序

Before the start of the day, make a list of tasks that need your immediate attention as unimportant tasks can consume much of your precious time. Some tasks need to be completed on that day only while other unimportant tasks could be carried forward to next day. In short, prioritize your tasks to focus on those that are more important.

每天工作前，先列出需要佔用大量寶貴時間的重要緊急任務。有些任務當天必須完成，而有些則可以拖到第二天。總之，優先安排重要的任務。

Avoid Procrastination

杜絕拖延

Procrastination is one of the things that badly affect the productivity. It can result is wasting essential time and energy. It should be avoided at all costs. It could be a major problem in both your career and your personal life.

拖延是嚴重影響效率的一大惡因，既浪費時間又耗費精力，無論如何都要杜絕，否則會極大危害你的工作和生活。

Schedule Tasks

計劃任務

Carry a planner or notebook with you and list all the tasks that come to your mind. Make a simple 『To Do』 list before the start of the day, prioritize the tasks, and make sure that they are attainable. To better manage your time management skills, you may think of making 3 lists: work, home, and personal.

隨身攜帶便簽或筆記本，一旦想到什麼就記下來。每天早上列個「任務清單」，按優先次序排列，並確保任務能夠完成。若想進一步提高自己的時間管理能力，你可以按「工作-家庭-個人」來分類清單。

Avoid Stress

遠離壓力

Stress often occurs when we accept more work than our ability. The result is that our body starts feeling tired which can affect our productivity. Instead, delegate tasks to your juniors and make sure to leave some time for relaxation.

當工作量遠遠超出我們的承受範圍時，壓力就會接踵而來，而一旦感到身體疲憊，效率也會大打折扣。所以，你要學會把任務分派給下屬去做，給自己一點放鬆的時間。

Set up Deadlines

設定期限

When you have a task at hand, set a realistic deadline and stick to it. Try to set a deadline few days before the task so that you can complete all those tasks that may get in the way. Challenge yourself and meet the deadline. Reward yourself for meeting a difficult challenge.

處理任務時先設定一個期限，然後盡量在期限內完成。你可以嘗試把任務期限提前幾天，那樣，如果中途出現新任務，你也能遊刃有餘了。挑戰自己在期限內完成任務，然後在做成後獎勵一下自己。

Avoid Multitasking

勿一心多用

Most of us feel that multitasking is an efficient way of getting things done but the truth is that we do better when we focus and concentrate on one thing. Multitasking hampers productivity and should be avoided to improve time management skills.

很多人以為同時處理多個任務能提高效率，但事實是，一次只專心做一件事的效果更好。一心多用並不利於提高效率，我們在學習時間管理技巧時千萬要避免。

Start Early

及早開始

Most of the successful men and women have one thing in common. They start their day early as it gives them time to sit, think, and plan their day. When you get up early, you are more calm, creative, and clear-headed. As the day progresses, your energy levels starts going down which affects your productivity and you don』t perform as well.

很多成功人士有一個共同點：他們習慣早起，趁著早上的時間思考並計劃新的一天。早起使人頭腦清醒活躍、更加從容鎮定；而晚些時候人的精力會漸漸消耗，效率和工作表現遠不如早上。

Take Some Breaks

間歇休息

Whenever you find yourself for 10-15 minutes, take a break. Too much stress can take toll on your body and affect your productivity. Take a walk, listen to some music or do some quick stretches. The best idea is to take off from work and spend time with your friends and family.

只要有那麼10-15分鐘，就稍微休息一下吧。壓力太大既傷身體又影響效率。散散步、聽聽音樂或伸展一下胳膊，最好能暫時撇開工作，跟家人朋友呆一會兒。

Learn to say No

懂得拒絕

Politely refuse to accept additional tasks if you think that you』re already overloaded with work. Take a look at your 『To Do』 list before agreeing to take on extra work.

如果感到工作量太大，可以嘗試委婉拒絕額外工作。接受額外工作前先看下自己的任務清單吧。
