Multi-Task While Eating
Eating while just staring at the wall is a great time waster. Which is not a good thing. At least check your e-mail or read over a project you have to work on in the afternoon while you are munching your way through that tuna sandwich. If you read (dork!) in your free time, do it during lunch to give you some extra time later when you are usually reading.
吃飯時多做點別的事情
吃飯時僅僅盯著墻面,對時間是巨大的浪費。這是很不好的事情。這個時候你至少可以查看自己的郵件,或者在你大口咀嚼三明治的時候想想自己下午要做什么事情。如果你在自己閑暇的時候讀書--這真是太愚蠢了--把這些事情放到午餐的時候吧,為接下來的事務(wù)多留點時間,等到你真的閑暇的時候在去讀書吧。
Make Calls in the Car
No, we didn’t say hold the phone or dial while you are driving. That’s illegal in a lot of places these days and kinda’ not safe. Use a hands-free device to make your calls and check your voice mail. We all have people we need to chat with every day, so make good use of your time in the car and get the talking out of the way while you make your way through traffic.
在車上打電話
我絕對不是說在你開車的時候打電話?,F(xiàn)今在許多地方那都是違法的、而且很不安全。使用一個不用手持東東幫助打電話、查看語音信箱。我們每天都要與一些人閑聊,所以好好利用你在車上的時間。不過當你穿過川流的車流中,奉勸你最好不要這樣做。
Brush Teeth in the Shower
Getting your teeth cleaned up may seem like a quick enough task, but if you do it while standing under the shower head, you can save yourself a couple of extra minutes in the morning. Do it for a week and say hello to ten extra minutes of time for you. This is time you can spend putting your fake eyelashes on or something.
在淋浴的時候刷牙
保持牙齒清潔看起來似乎似乎是一個很快就能完成的事情,但是如果你能夠在淋浴沖洗你的腦袋時刷牙,你就會為你的早上節(jié)省好幾分鐘的時間呢。堅持一周都這樣做,你就能迎來十多分鐘寬裕的時間,這樣你就有時間整理你的假睫毛或著做其他的事情。
Run Home
This is for those of you that work out. Provided you have a cardio program, think about getting the workout finished before you even get home. If you have a wife, girlfriend, or even a dude you carpool with, have them drop you off a few miles from home and start your run. Throw your clothes in a backpack and do it up Army Ranger style. Saves you having to go in the house, change, then leave again. Shaves several minutes off of your day.
飛跑回家
這個是對那些在外面工作的人提出的建議。如果你的公司有打卡進出的制度,要考慮確保在回家之前完成你的工作。如果你有妻子、女朋友,或者你和別人拼車,讓他們在距離你家?guī)桌锏臅r候放你下車,然后就開始跑吧。把你的衣服整理成突擊隊員那種風格背著回家。出去你回家換衣服的時間,再從家里出來,你還有時間刮刮今天新長出的胡茬。
