4 Genius New Ways to Stay Motivated Toward Any Goal
4種天才的新方法以對任何目標都保持動力
Trying new workout classes, drinking more water, leaping out of bed earlier-whatever your personal mission, there's an app or gizmo that can help you stick with it.
嘗試新的鍛鍊課程，喝更多水，早點從牀上起來--不管你的個人任務是什麼，都有一種應用軟件或小發明幫助你堅持下去。
For morning motivation
對於早晨的動力
Wake up to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson shouting at you from The Rock Clock. The new alarm app (free; iTunes and Google Play) also sends you motivational videos recorded by the pro-wrestler-slash-actor. Feeling tough? You can get up at "Rock Time," meaning your alarm will go off when his does. (Warning: He gets up really early.)
搖滾鍾內約翰遜對你大叫德維恩的"岩石"以喚醒你。這款新的鬧鐘應用（免費的，在iTunes 和Google Play上）同樣也會向你發送由職業摔跤手削減演員錄製的動力視頻。感到很難？你可以在"搖滾時間"起牀，意味着你的鬧鐘在他的鬧鐘響時就會響（警告：他很早就起牀了。）
For managing time
對於管理時間
The Goals function in the Google Calendar app (free; iTunes and Google Play) finds open slots in your schedule to squeeze in your goal (working out three times per week, say). Last-minute happy hour instead of spin class? Sorry, no excuses: If you cancel a session, Calendar will automatically reschedule it.
谷歌日曆應用（免費的，在iTunes and Google Play中）中的目標函數會在你的日程中找到空隙並將你的目標擠入其中（比如說每週鍛鍊三次）。最後一分鐘的快樂時光而非旋轉課？對不起，沒有理由:如果你取消一節課，日曆將會自動重新對其計劃。
For monitoring your progress
對於監管自己的進步
Turn any FitBit into a health coach by syncing the band with Echo, Amazon's hands-free speaker. The new feature lets you ask Echo's voice assistant, Alexa, questions like "What's my step count?" She'll give a response along with a nudge. ("Take a walk, but don't forget to stop and smell the roses.")
通過同步Echo手帶（亞馬遜免提揚聲器），就可將任何的運動追蹤器變爲一位健身教練。新功能允許你向Echo的語音助手亞歷克莎問類似"我走了多少步？"這樣的問題。她將會隨着推動給你回覆。（"走一走，但別忘了停下腳步聞聞玫瑰。"）
For extra encouragement
對於額外的鼓勵
Meet Moti-a gadget, out this fall, that gets increasingly excited the more you pursue your goal. Set it somewhere easy to spot (office desktop, dresser) and press the face each time you, for example, log your run. It lights up and makes noise the more consistent you are, and it turns red and beeps when you fall short.
見見莫蒂--今年秋天將上市的一個小發明，你越多的追求自己的目標，它就會越來越激動。把它放在很容易看到的地方（辦公桌，梳妝檯），並且例如你每次記錄跑步時就按一下它的臉。你越一致時它就會亮起來發出聲響，而你功虧一簣時它就會變紅髮出嗶嗶聲。
