八招教你早下班

　　下面的8個小貼士能幫你按時下班：

　　1. Set a Goal – Know when you are leaving. If you have a set time that you are working towards, you can adjust your work to meet that goal。

　　1. 設(shè)定目標(biāo)——知道什么時候離開。如果你有規(guī)劃好的時間表并為之努力，你可以調(diào)整工作來實現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)。

　　2. Set Hard Boundaries – When things start running over, don’t let them. Excuse yourself from that meeting on time. End that discussion when appropriate. Sheryl Sandberg (Facebook COO) is known for setting a hard-line that she leaves work at 5:30PM to get home with her kids. (Recommended reading: Sheryl’s book Lean In。)

　　2. 設(shè)定嚴(yán)格的界限——當(dāng)事情開始超時時，阻止這種情況發(fā)生。按時從會議離開。在恰當(dāng)?shù)臅r候結(jié)束討論。雪莉-桑德伯格(Facebook COO)以堅持每天下午5:30下班去接孩子而聞名。

　　3. Set Expectations – Advance expectations can work magic. If others know that you need to leave on time, they are more likely to respect your time. This could meaning telling your team or boss in advance, that you need to depart at a certain time that day。

　　3. 設(shè)定期望——提前設(shè)定期望能帶來魔法般的效果。如果其他人知道你需要按時離開，他們更有可能遵守你的時間。這可以是提前告訴你的團(tuán)隊或老板，那天你需要在某一時間離開。

　　4. Make An Appointment (With Yourself) – Leaving at the end of the day can be difficult, even from an etiquette standpoint. However, if you have an appointment, people tend to be understanding. You don’t have to say that it is a dinner with your significant other。

　　4. (和你自己)預(yù)約——上完班離開時可能很難，即使是從禮儀的角度上來說也是如此。然而，如果你有預(yù)約，別人一般都會理解。你不必說是和你的另一半約會。

　　5. Don’t Schedule Meetings at the End of the Day – Set aside the end of your day for admin, clean-up, and wrap-up. These are activities that you control. Meetings tend to run over. Don’t let meetings be the last thing on your daily calendar。

　　5. 不要把會議安排在一天結(jié)束之際。把你快下班的這段時間留出來進(jìn)行行政管理、清潔和總結(jié)。這些都是你能控制的活動。會議往往會超時。不要把會議安排成你當(dāng)天日歷上的最后一件事情。

　　6. Don’t Go Out For lunch – While fun, going out for lunch with the gang ends up punching a huge hole in your day. Don’t let the second half of your workday get derailedby an unexpected long lunch. Bring your lunch and if you finish early you can relax or get ahead on your afternoon。

　　6. 不要出去吃午餐——和一群人外出吃午餐雖然很有趣，但是會浪費你很多時間。不要讓你工作日的下半部分因為一頓意外的長時午餐而脫離正軌。帶著午餐去上班，如果你提前做完工作，你可以休息或下午提前走。

　　7. Start Early – Want to leave early? Try getting to work early. By arriving before others, you can get work done and be ahead of your to do list。

　　7. 早點兒開始——想早點兒離開?試試早點兒開始工作。你可以比別人先到，把工作做完，提前做待辦事項清單里的事項。

　　8. Get your Deadlines Done Early – Attack those have-to-do tasks early. The ones that you must get done before leaving work. This will prevent you from getting stuck when you run out of time at the end of the day。

　　8. 早點兒做有最后期限的工作——早點兒攻克那些必須要做的任務(wù)。早點兒做那些必須下班前做完的工作。這會讓你免于在下班的時候發(fā)現(xiàn)時間不夠用。
