【摘要】:威廉希尔app 整理了你是不是经常感叹要是时间再多点儿该多好呀,以下几个小贴士,能帮你有效找到“更多”的时间让你向着新的目标奋斗。

1. Track Your Time for Several Days

1. 连续几天记录自己的时间用途

Where does your time really go? If you’re not sure, then keep track of your time for a few days. Record what you’re doing in 15 minute intervals. You may want to focus particularly on trouble-spots: times of day when you tend to procrastinate.

你的时间,到底都用在哪儿了?假如你不确定答案,那就试着连续记录几天,找出自己真正的时间分配。每隔15分钟就记录一下自己在做的事情。很快你就能发现自己在什么地方特别容易浪费时间——也就是你的拖延症发作期啦。

Look for any time sinks – tasks or activities that are taking up a lot more time than you thought. Can you cut down the amount of time you spend on these – or cut them out of your day altogether?

找出那些耗时的陷阱——那些让你实际花费的时间比自己认为的多得多的事情。你能把它们占用的时间缩小吗?或者干脆彻底摒弃?

2. Break Your Goal into Little Chunks

2. 把目标拆分成小块

If you have a huge goal like “run a marathon” or “write a book”, you’re obviously not going to accomplish it overnight: it’s going to take months or even years of effort. Big goals can be daunting – but by breaking them into little chunks, you make it much easier to get started and to keep going.

假如你的目标很远大,比方“跑马拉松”、“写一本书”这种,不可能一夜之间就能实现而需要数月数年才能完成的事,你可以试着把它们分成小块,这样就更容易一步步实现,而不会让你退缩啦。

Spend a few minutes writing down the next five small steps that you need to take to move towards your goal. These might be steps like “find a good training plan” or “buy new trainers” or “go for a 15-minute jog today” if you want to run a marathon next year.

花几分钟时间来列出为了达到这个目标而需要做的5件事。比方说如果你的目标是马拉松,你可以写上:“找到一个合适的训练计划”、“买一双新跑鞋”、“每天坚持慢跑15分钟”等等,为明年实现马拉松的目标而努力。

3. Realize That Even 10 Minutes is Enough

3. 短短十分钟也能做很多事

It’s often easy to put off working on a goal because you don’t have enough time. Sure, you might have 10 minutes to spare – but you think you need a whole hour or two. Even 10 minutes, though, is enough to make some progress towards your goal.

我们很容易因为时间不够而推迟目标的达成。拨出10分钟来的确不难,但你可能觉得自己需要整整一、两小时。其实,哪怕是10分钟,也足够帮助你慢慢实现计划了。

Find little tasks that you can fit into 10 minutes … you’ll be surprised how much they’ll add up over a week or a month! If you’re working on a book, you could spend 10 minutes brainstorming topics, adding to your plan, or even writing a new paragraph of the content.

找出那些你能在10分钟内完成的任务,日复一日,你会惊讶地发现,原来一周一月累积完成的事情可以有这么多!拿写书来讲,每天都花10分钟找找灵感、设计写作计划、或者干脆写上一段,将会非常可观。

4. Block Out a Whole Afternoon or Weekend for Your Goal

4. 为目标腾出一整个下午或周末

Of course, it’s not easy to accomplish your whole goal in daily 10-minute increments: if you want to run a marathon, for instance, you’ll need to train for longer than 10 minutes at a time. This is when a diary or calendar becomes a vital tool to help you towards your goal.

当然,每天只花10分钟对你的远大抱负来说,肯定不够啦。想跑马拉松,10分钟的练习时间肯定不够。所以你还可以利用日记/日历等有效工具,来帮助你实现目标。

Look ahead a few weeks, and see whether you can block out a whole Saturday afternoon – or even a whole weekend – to spend on your goal. Mark that time now in your diary or calendar, and don’t let any social events or chores creep into that space.

把日历往后翻,看看未来的哪个周六下午可以彻底空出来——要是能空出一整个周末那就更好啦。接下来,把这几天做上标记,以确保它不会被任何其他活动侵占。
