You've heard plenty of advice on how to do more in less time, for example, you should wake up early to become more productive, or you shouldn’t check your email first thing in the morning. Here are some useful tips to improve your productivity. They may very well change the way you work!
你已經(jīng)聽(tīng)過(guò)大量的關(guān)于怎樣工作才能事半功倍的建議了,比如為了提高效率你應(yīng)該早起,或者你不該在早上頭一件事就檢查電子郵件。以下有一些實(shí)用的建議能夠幫助你提高工作效率。這幾招很可能會(huì)改變你一貫的工作方式!

1.Use a Post-It Wisely
巧用便簽

"Use a post-it note to record the 3 most important things I can do on that particular day. The post-it note is beneficial because it has a size constraint."
“使用便簽記下具體哪天要做的最重要的3件事情。小巧的便簽是非常好用的?!?/div>

2.List Your Tasks on a Whiteboard
工作任務(wù)列白板上

"Use a whiteboard to list all of the tasks that are mine to accomplish. After . . . delegating out tasks, I put mine on a white board. Usually this is 10-15 tasks."
“在白板上列出所有我要完成的工作任務(wù)。完成一項(xiàng)刪除一項(xiàng),我自己就是這么做的,我把我的工作任務(wù)列在白板上,通常列出10-15項(xiàng)工作任務(wù)?!?/div>

3.Prioritize, Prioritize, Prioritize
重要的工作先做

"Prioritize the most important task you need to get done (often the one you are putting off). It is critical to set objectives before working."
“最重要的工作要先完成(有的人通常習(xí)慣把重要的工作推遲后做)。在開(kāi)始投入工作之前,要設(shè)定好目標(biāo)這一點(diǎn)非常重要?!?/div>

4.Like a Boss
像老板一樣指派任務(wù)

"Delegate (LIKE A BOSS). When you enjoy what you do you will find yourself being much more productive. If you really suck at doing something, chances are there is someone out there that can probably do it for less than $5 per hr. Check out , , etc."
“像老板一樣指派任務(wù)。當(dāng)你對(duì)自己所做的工作感覺(jué)很享受的時(shí)候,你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的工作效率非常之高。如果你真的不想自己做,那么把機(jī)會(huì)讓給別人,有人可能會(huì)愿意以不到5美元/小時(shí)的高效率出色完成,你可以在、、等網(wǎng)站上找人來(lái)做?!?/div>

5.Silence Is Golden
沉默是金

"Set iPhone in Do Not Disturb Mode. New feature in iOS 6 that turns off vibrate and all sounds."
“把iPhone手機(jī)設(shè)置為不打擾模式。新版本的iOS 6系統(tǒng)能關(guān)掉振動(dòng)和所有聲音?!?/div>

6.Bunch Up Your Emails
處理郵件

"Batch Your Email (When people are unlikely to respond right away). Email is one of the biggest time wasters. Stay away unless it is absolutely critical to your previously set objectives. Remember that the more emails you send throughout the day, the more you receive. It's a vicious cycle."
“分批處理郵件(把不可能立即回復(fù)的郵件進(jìn)行分批處理)。郵件是最浪費(fèi)時(shí)間的工作之一,重要的郵件除外,其它的郵件做分批處理。記住:你發(fā)送出去的郵件越多,收到的郵件就越多,收發(fā)郵件屬于惡性循環(huán)?!?/div>

"I batch emails at night or early in the morning when people are less likely to respond right away. It is amazing how fast you can blow through a few hundred emails when you are not replying to instant responses and can move on to other tasks."
“對(duì)于不大可能立即回復(fù)的郵件進(jìn)行分批處理。對(duì)于數(shù)百封并不立即回復(fù)的郵件,你瀏覽郵件的速度越快,你開(kāi)始下一項(xiàng)工作的速度就越快?!?/div>

7.Obviously a Smartphone Email
手機(jī)郵件,一目了然

"Add 'sent from my iPhone' to all email accounts signatures. This way people don't get upset with you for keeping your emails brief and getting right to the point."
“我用iPhone手機(jī)發(fā)送的所有郵件都添加簽名。你的郵件內(nèi)容一定要簡(jiǎn)潔明了直奔主題,這樣人們才不會(huì)對(duì)你的郵件感到厭煩沒(méi)耐心讀完?!?/div>

8.Give Yourself a Break
放空自己,休息一下

"Take a break when you are not being productive anymore. For me I have a really short attention span, and I notice a significant fall off in productivity after about an hour or so of work. Take a break. Go for a walk, do something else, etc . . . then get back to work!"
“工作效率不高的時(shí)候就選擇休息一下。我自己的注意力集中時(shí)間真的有些短,工作一小時(shí)后,工作效率就低了。休息一下,出去散散步,去做做別的事兒,然后,再回來(lái)繼續(xù)工作!”

9.Listen to Music
聆聽(tīng)音樂(lè)

"Not all music is the same when it comes to being productive. Try out different genres of music and see what works for you.
提高工作效率的音樂(lè)并不全是一樣的。嘗試聽(tīng)一下各種類型、各種風(fēng)格、各種流派的音樂(lè),這樣你才能找到適合你用來(lái)提高工作效率的音樂(lè)。
