不知道你會不會過完一天發現本來打算做的事還是沒做完，很想老天給自己一天48小時，一分鐘掰成兩分鐘用?其實大多數情況下并不是時間少，而是真正用來做事的時間縮水了。復雜的咱不提，就三個小步驟，慢慢養成有效利用時間的習慣吧。
　　Step 1: Find a place to sit without distractions. Think about what is important to you then get your paper and pencil and make a list. This list should include things that you would like to accomplish. Keep it short.
　　第一步：找一個不受干擾的工作環境。用紙筆列出需要做的重要事情，這些必須包含你想要完成的任務。清單要盡量簡短。
　　Step 2: Make a realisticdeadline. Put some time aside every day to work toward your goal. It doesn’t have to be much -- maybe only an hour. The important thing is that for that hour you focussolelyon completing your task, nothing else should be on your mind. You’ll be surprised at what you can accomplish when you focus.
　　第二步：給自己定一個最后期限。每天留出一些時間為實現你的目標去努力，不需要太長，只有1小時也可以。重要的一點在于，那一個小時里你要心無旁騖地完成任務。集中精力，你會對自己的成果感到驚訝。
　　Step 3: Don’t be too hard on yourself. If you focus only on your failures or tasks that you still need to accomplish, you’ll get overwhelmedand/or depressedand you’ll never accomplish anything.
　　第三步：別對自己過于苛刻。如果你只看得到自己的過錯和沒做完的事情，你就很容易感到失望，以致完成不了任何事情。
