One of the most helpful habits that I've recently picked up is to create a short to-do list at the start of every day. What I do is write just three tasks I have to tackle so that the list isn't overwhelming. With such a short list, the tasks take on a higher priority, which motivates me to get them done.
最近，我養(yǎng)成了一個(gè)非常有用的習(xí)慣：每天早上列一張當(dāng)天要完成的小清單。我每天所做的僅僅是寫下三個(gè)當(dāng)天要完成的任務(wù)，使清單不至于令我難以應(yīng)付。有了這張小清單，我將會(huì)優(yōu)先考慮這些任務(wù)，以此激發(fā)自己完成它們。

If you plan on using this method, you need to look back to the to-do list as the day goes by and cross tasks off the list as you finish them. And when the day is over, throw out the list so that you can start fresh the next day. That way, you won't have to deal with a lingering to-do list that will never get done. Having a never-ending to-do list can start to weigh on you, so it's best to keep it short and sweet!
如果你想要用這個(gè)方法，你需要隨時(shí)回顧你當(dāng)天的清單，然后把你已經(jīng)完成了的任務(wù)從上面劃掉。 當(dāng)天結(jié)束后，把清單扔掉，那樣你便可以開始全新的明天。用這種方法，你將不用去處理那些永遠(yuǎn)也完不成的清單。羅列一張無止盡的清單將會(huì)給你造成壓力，所以最好的方式是使清單短小精悍。
