In our hectic modern world, we believe that rushing from one task to the next and managing multiple priorities shows everyone that we are productive.

在忙碌的现代世界中，我们相信从一项任务过渡到下一项任务并处理多项优先事项可以向所有人表明我们的生产力。

Indeed, because of this cult of busyness, too many of us feel overwhelmed, overworked, and behind their “busy” schedule.

确实，由于这种对繁忙的热爱，我们太多的人感到不堪重负，过度劳累并且落后于他们的“繁忙”时间表。

怎么了 如何比生产力更有成效的一百万个秘诀是什么？ 哪些强大的技术可以增加您的工作时间？

Let us have a look at some tips and hack from successful people on how to stretch your time, your effectiveness, and answer these questions in this post.

让我们看看成功人士的一些技巧和技巧，以帮助他们延长时间，提高效率并在这篇文章中回答这些问题。

🛑不要抱怨你要做多少 (🛑 Quit complaining about how much you have to do)

Usually, we complain because we feel powerless to get what we want — just excuses for not doing anything to help your situation. So what we have to do is analyze our complaints before talking about them.

通常，我们抱怨是因为我们无能为力，无法得到想要的东西–只是借口不做任何事情来帮助您解决问题。 因此，我们要做的是在谈论投诉之前先分析我们的投诉。

When you complain, nobody wants to help you. — Stephen Hawking

当您抱怨时，没人愿意帮助您。 —斯蒂芬·霍金

Folks are looking for people who can impact their lives positively, who can inspire them for more. If you complain about your problems most of the time, you have a negative outlook on your situation and life.

人们正在寻找可以对生活产生积极影响的人，并可以激发他们更多的灵感。 如果您大部分时间都在抱怨自己的问题，那么您对自己的处境和生活会持负面看法。

On the other hand, you can complain to yourself about feeling overwhelmed with the demands on your time.

另一方面，您可能会抱怨自己对时间需求不知所措。

There is no need for any study to be presented to understand that in general, we spend around 4–5 hours per day on our daily routine tasks like getting dressed, eating, gym, household chores, etc., along with the full-time job. No wonder we cannot get everything that we planned for a day.

无需进行任何研究就可以理解，一般来说，我们每天花费大约4-5个小时来完成日常工作，例如穿衣服，吃饭，健身，做家务等，以及全职工作。 难怪我们无法获得一天计划的一切。

And the #1 question is here: how can we manage our time better?

第一个问题在这里： 我们如何更好地管理自己的时间？

The secret is that you should 👇

秘密是你应该

• Work only on important tasks.
  仅处理重要任务。
• Don’t overload your schedule.
  不要使您的日程安排超载。
• Take your daily routine into account.
  考虑您的日常工作。
• During execution, don’t think about all your planned items. Just focus on your current task at hand.
  在执行过程中，不要考虑所有计划项目。 只需专注于当前的任务即可。
• Once that’s done, move on to the next one. Thinking about your whole day of work will drain your mental energy needlessly.
  完成后，继续进行下一个。 考虑一整天的工作会不必要地消耗您的精力。

Be busy, but not stressed.

忙，但不要压力。

E消除生活中不重要的活动 (🤹‍♀️ Eliminate unimportant activities from your life)

Of course, it’s easier to say than to do.

当然，说起来容易做起来难。

Human nature craves the satisfaction of achievement. We are seeking for results but rarely progress. That’s why we often tend to engage in trivial activities first. For example, by taking a course and get a certificate for the accomplishment, learn new 100 Spanish words in a month, and so on.

人性渴望获得成就感。 我们正在寻求结果，但很少取得进展。 这就是为什么我们经常倾向于首先进行一些琐碎的活动。 例如，通过学习课程并获得成就证书，一个月内可以学习100个新的西班牙语单词，依此类推。

It explains the pointless accomplishments of a random activity that does not lead towards our goal — our success.

它解释了一项随机活动的无意义成就，这些成就并不会导致我们的目标-我们的成功。

The most productive people among us regularly ask themselves which tasks they can eliminate because they focus on results and know that success is not about the number of tasks you finish, but about their significance.

我们中生产力最高的人经常问自己，自己可以消除哪些任务，因为他们专注于结果，并且知道成功与完成的任务无关，而与他们完成任务的重要性有关。

The advice here is, to begin with 👇

这里的建议是，以👇开头

• Multiplying your time by going through everything you do in a day with eliminating mindset;
  通过消除一天中的心态来完成一天中的所有事情，从而倍增您的时间；
• Cutting off unnecessary distractions like the TV, Netflix, or video games to return to the effective mode of operation;
  切断电视，Netflix或视频游戏等不必要的干扰，以恢复有效的操作模式；
• Organizing and prioritizing first the tasks and needs that have to be done to fulfill urgent commitments and are important.
  首先要组织并按优先级排列任务和需求，以履行紧迫的承诺，这很重要。

What is important is seldom urgent, and what is urgent is seldom important. — Dwight Eisenhower

重要的事很少紧急，紧急的事很少重要。 —德怀特·艾森豪威尔

With that being said, and with a little bit more effort by using the Eisenhower Matrix, prioritizing your tasks based on their urgency will be more comfortable.

话虽这么说，并且通过使用艾森豪威尔矩阵付出了更多的精力，但是根据任务的紧急程度来确定任务的优先级将更加轻松。

using使用80/20规则提高生产力 (➗ Enhance productivity using the 80/20 rule)

The 80/20 rule by Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto states that in any pursuit, 80% of the results will come from 20% of the efforts.

意大利经济学家维尔弗雷多·帕累托(Vilfredo Pareto)的80/20规则指出，无论如何，80％的结果将来自20％的努力。

And highly productive people are 👇

高生产力的人是👇

1. Trying to identify the most important 20% of their work to maximize efficiency.
   尝试找出他们工作中最重要的20％，以最大程度地提高效率。
2. Looking at ways to cut down the other 80% of their schedule.
   寻找减少80％的时间表的方法。
3. And finding more time for things that make the biggest impact.
   并为产生最大影响的事情留出更多时间。

More about the Pareto principle, you can read here. This method will help you focus. The next step is to take the right action to solve your issues.

有关帕累托原理的更多信息，可以在这里阅读。 此方法将帮助您集中精力。 下一步是采取正确的措施来解决您的问题。

✨开始努力获得继续前进的动力 (✨ Start working on getting the motivation to continue)

Motivation comes after productivity and not before.

动机来自生产力，而不是生产力。

As soon as you planned and prioritized everything, do not try to look for motivation and inspiration right after. Instead, focus on getting started — whether you are motivated or not.

一旦您计划好了一切并确定了优先顺序，就不要立即寻求动力和灵感。 相反，专注于入门-无论您是否有动力。

You don’t need to tackle everything at once.

您无需一次解决所有问题。

The trouble of getting motivated, it’s often because we are looking at the massive scope of a task or problem at the first glance.

激发动力的麻烦，通常是因为我们乍一看就在处理任务或问题的巨大范围。

Just start doing something, and you will find it easier to keep going because taking action is what leads to motivation, which in turn leads to more action from your side.

刚开始做某事，您会发现继续前进会更容易，因为采取行动才是动力，而这反过来又会导致您采取更多行动。

The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones. — Confucius

搬山的人首先带走小石头。 —Kong子

⏳利用您的“迷失”时间 (⏳ Use your “lost” time)

Last but not least, and more effectively, is to do your chores while you cannot work on essential tasks.

最后但并非最不重要的一点是，最有效的方法是在无法执行基本任务时做家务。

Listen to podcasts on your commute. Reply to Whatsapp messages while waiting in line. Read a book while on a plane. Call your doctor for an appointment while waiting for a meeting to start, etc.

在上下班时收听播客。 排队等候时回复Whatsapp消息。 在飞机上读书。 等待会议开始等时致电医生预约。

There are endless examples of how you can use “lost” time to get required (but not vital) stuff done.

有无数的示例说明如何利用“浪费”的时间来完成必需的(但不是至关重要的)工作。

结论 (Conclusion)

Gain control of your daily schedule by carefully evaluating your daily activities and determine what can be eliminated, what can be delegated, and what should become a current or future priority.

通过仔细评估您的日常活动并确定可以消除的内容，可以委派的内容以及应成为当前或将来的优先事项来控制您的日程安排。

Know when to take action and when to be patient, focus on your current priority without distractions.

知道什么时候采取行动以及什么时候耐心，专注于当前的重点，不要分心。

Because productivity will increase with your efficiency and proper time management. You must have heard the phrase:

因为生产力将随着您的效率和适当的时间管理而增加。 您一定听过以下短语：

Winners don’t do different things. They do things differently. — Shiv Khera

优胜者不会做不同的事情。 他们做事不同。 — Shiv Khera
