4 Time Management Tips That Can Save You Hours a Week

4個時間管理技巧可以幫你在一週內節省幾個小時

If you're reading this on Sunday, in between doing work-related tasks that you just didn't have time for during the week, have hope. With a few small changes, you can manage your time so that you never (well, hardly ever) have to work the weekend again.

如果你在週日恰好閱讀到這篇文章，而且正在爲這周沒時間做工作相關的任務而發愁，那麼你就會看到希望了。只需要一些小變化，你就能管理好自己的時間，這樣你就再也不會（或者基本不會）在週末工作了。

1. Batch like tasks.

1.分批處理相似工作

Multitasking, as we've said many times before, is the art of doing many tasks poorly. To really get stuff done, do one thing at a time for a set period of time. Better yet, batch, so that your brain doesn't have to make a huge leap every time you change activities.

我們之前也建議過很多次，多重任務處理就意味着低效率處理許多任務。想要把工作做好，就必須在一段特定的時間內一次做一件事。然而更好的辦法就是分批處理相似的任務，這樣就不會因爲多次改變活動而需要很大的思維跳躍。

2. Block off your time.

2.限定自己的時間

Why is someone else's meeting more important than your work? In part, because they've blocked off time for it, most likely in your Outlook calendar. Make a commitment to yourself, using the same tools. Discretion is key, here: no one will respect your calendar if you block off whole days at a stretch, no matter how tempting it is.

爲什麼別人的約會總是比你的工作更重要呢？某種程度上是因爲他們爲約會定好了時限，很像是Outlook中的工作日程表。給自己一個承諾，使用同一種工具。想要做到這一點，就需要考慮周到：無論這一方法多麼誘人，那麼你也不能一次性將自己整天的時間限定死，因爲這樣就不會有人遵守你的工作日程表了。

3. Take frequent breaks.

3.經常休息

Plan them into your day, if possible. You're less likely to wind up wasting hours on the internet or playing games on your phone, if you know you'll get another break in a half an hour or so.

如果可能的話，可以將休息時間列入每日計劃之中。如果你知道在大約半小時之後你就能再次休息，那麼你很可能就不會耗費幾個小時用手機上網、玩遊戲了。

4. Sit as little as possible.

4.儘量不要坐着

Even if you can't get on board with the standing desk revolution, and your company isn't feeling the treadmill desk alternative, adding more physical activity to your day will benefit your health and concentration.

儘管你也很難適應站立辦式辦公桌的變革，而且你的公司也並不認爲可以選擇腳踏辦公桌，那麼每天增加一些身體活動都會有益於你的健康和專心。

When you take breaks, try to get up and move instead of just sitting in place. Ask questions in person. Go for a walk at lunch. Do whatever you can to keep from sitting at your desk for the whole day without a rest. You'll have more energy, and get more done during the time you spend in your chair.

當你休息的時候，儘量站起來走動走動，而不是還坐在座位上。要親自去問問題。在午餐時間散散步。要儘量做一些事來避免整天坐在桌前不休息。這樣你的精力會更充沛，在坐着辦公的時間內就能完成更多的任務。
