Writing things down minimizes confusion and stress. Write down your goals, to-do lists, and even the problems that youre
12、working on. Youll find putting things on paper usually clarifies the situation. Committing things to memory can be a waste of brain power, not to mention a poor storage device as well.4把思考用纸记录下来。把事情写下来可以使你的困惑和压力减小到最小。写下你的目标，待执行清单，甚或你正在解决的问题。你会发现将事情写在纸上将澄清现在的状况。把所有的事情存在脑子里是对大脑的一种浪费，更不要说是一个很糟糕的记忆装置了。5
13、Categorize your To Do list into A, B, and C priorities. “A” priorities are the activities that are critical for your success. “B” priorities are important but not critical. “C” priorities would be nice to do if you get the time. Begin with your “A” priorities and work your way to the “nice to do” it

Let the organizer do the work so you can spend less time organizing yourself.尝试一下新鲜事物。仔细阅读你的电子记事本所附带的操作指导。如果可以的话，尝试着去软件生产商的网站看看是否有新的软件更新发布，它将提升你的工作效率。你总会发现几个你从没有使用过的时间管理工具。让你的记事本做更多的工作这样你自己就可以在整理方面少做一些工作了。9Use only one time management system. Whether y

19、远超过现在读这本书的进度了。11How about all those passwords? Tough to remember? Simplify your passwords and have a logical, easy to remember reason for selecting each. Trying to remember a password is frustrating and a total waste of time. You may want to select passwords that can be typed on the keyboard with on
20、e hand so your other hand is free.那些密码怎么样？强行的记住？简化你的密码并且用一个有逻辑的、容易记忆的办法来选择每一个密码。试图记住一个密码是无效的并且很浪费时间。你应该试图选择一个你可以用一只手输入的密码，这样你的另一只手就空下来了。12Take a Saturday and devote two hours to reorganizing yourself.

If you have not used it within 90 days, you can safely throw those “keepers” away.如果你对扔掉你的那些纸张感觉很头痛，那么你就找一个专门的文件夹来存放这些这些东西并90天。如果你在90天之内没用用到，那你就可以把他们扔掉了。17Still not comfortable even after
25、 the 90 days? Then find the “office pack rat” and become their new best friend. Someone around the office has a copy of every memo and report from the past 10 years. Love that person but throw your trash away. 如果在90天处理仍然感觉不舒服？那么就去找一个办公室的搜集专家并且成为他们的好朋友。办公室里总有些人即使一张备忘录和报告也会保存10年。喜欢这些人吧但是要把你的垃圾处理掉。一八Tr
26、ust me on this, too! Most of all filed materials over a year old are never needed again. Archive the files and get them out of your way. If possible handle the paper only once and avoid the “Ill just put it here for now” habit.也请你相信我！大部分一年以上的文件也不再被需要再被使用到了。把这些文件归档然后拿开。如果可能的话把这些东西一次性处理掉以避免“我只是把这些东西暂时
27、放在这里”的习惯。19The key to paper management KEEP IT MOVING! (Now, how simple can we get?) Move the paper to your out basket, your file, your “to read” folder or to your trash. Dont let paper just sit.对于文件管理的关键在于让它处于运动状态！（现在，我们是多么的简单？）把你的文件移动到文件栏里、你的文档中、你的待阅读文件夹中或者垃圾箱中。但是不要让他们只是躺在那里。20Wait! Do these three
28、 things before you leave the office: (1) clear your desk, (2) plan tomorrows activities and (3) enter your next days to-do list in your organizer. Then go home. Planning the next day before you leave reduces stress and allows you to enjoy your time away from the office.等等！在你离开办公室之前完成三件事情：（1）清洁你的桌面，（
29、2）计划明天的活动和（3）输入你的第二天的待完成事情清单。然后你可以回家了。在离开之前规划好第二天的事情可以减轻你的压力使得你可以在离开办公室后更好的享受你的自由时间。二、Your Work SpaceHome Sweet HomeWhats mans best friend (besides the dog)? The wastebasket! Business Week你的工作空间甜蜜的家男人最好的朋友是谁（除了狗之外）？废纸篓商业周刊21Okay, listen up! Clear your deskNOW! Despite what some people believe, a clu
30、ttered desk does not indicate genius. Au contraire! It signals confusion and creates stress. Even mini-clutter will grow and eventually fill every inch. Keep your desk clear of everything except your project du jour and your family picture.好，请注意一下！把你的工作桌整理干净现在！不管是否如何某些人所相信的那样，一个杂乱的桌子决不意味着后面有一个天才。相反，
31、它发出了混乱的信号并且制造了压力。即使只是稍微的一点杂乱也会逐渐的加剧最后占领每一寸地方。所以保持你桌面的干净除了你的工作和你家人的照片。22Get rid of that paper! Shuffling and reshuffling paper from pile to pile or file to file wastes time and keeps you from focusing on what needs to get done. Find a gigantic wastebasket and fill it up. The larger the wastebasket, t
32、he more you will use it. Throwing things away then becomes an art. Enjoy! 把那些纸处理掉！从一堆移到到另一堆或者从一个文件移到另一个文件只会浪费时间并且让你一直看着哪些需要去做。找一个尽可能大的废纸篓并且把这些纸全部扔进去。废纸篓越大，你可以用的就越多。如何扔掉这些东西将成为一个艺术。享受它吧！23Files should not be an obstacle course. Put your most often reviewed files at the front of the cabinet. Here is a
33、 test to see if your current filing system works. Within two minutes, can you retrieve any paper you need? Go. If you failed the test you are wasting time searching through your files.文件不应该成为超越障碍训练场。把你经常需要使用的文件放在抽屉口。有一个测试可以用来检测你现在的归档系统是否运行良好。在两分钟之内，你是否可以找到任何你想要找到的纸？如果不可以那么说明你在文件夹里面寻找而浪费了时间。24Never c
34、lear off your desk by randomly throwing things in a drawer. Gotcha! You will eventually have to go through that drawer. Instead, create a logical system for storing these items in your desk. 不要为了整理你的桌子而随便把东西扔进抽屉里。我明白了！你将最终需要检查你每一个抽屉。实际上，你应该创建一个有逻辑的存储系统来放置你的东西。25A picture or two on your desk is proba
35、bly not distracting, but limit pictures to a special few. The more pictures on your desk, the more distractions and interruptions you invite.如果只是一张或者两张照片在你的桌子上还不怎么会影响你，但是把照片数量限制在一个尽可能少的范围内。你桌上的照片越多，干扰和影响你的因素就越多。26Organize your desktop! If you are right-handed, make sure the phone is located on the l
36、eft side of your desk. You want to keep the right side of the desk (and your right hand) free to take notes. Just the opposite for lefties.组织一下你的工作桌！如果你习惯使用右手，那么确保你的电话被放在你的左手边。你需要空出你桌子的右边来做笔记。对左撇子则相反。Right-handed people should place the calculator on the right side of their desk. Ditto the above for
37、 southpaws, the proud but under-represented!习惯右手的人应该把计算器放在你的右边。左撇子的人则相反。27Avoid glass desktops. They glare and are hard to keep clean.

38、tify the sender and ask to be deleted from distribution. The key question to ask is, “Would I pay for this report if I had to?” If not, get rid of it. 如果你桌上有一份你用不到的报告，请提醒发放这份报告的人把你从收件清单中删除掉。关键的问题在于“我是否必需偿还这份文件”，如果不是的话则马上处理掉。29If you only use a few lines of a report, ask for a reformat, if possible.
39、Four pages when you need four lines just doesnt make sense does it? 如果你只是需要用到一份报告里面的几行，如果有可能的话则要一个简化版。你只需要四行内容，却需要拥有四张纸没什么意义不是吗？三、“If you want to make an easy job seem mighty hard, just keep putting off doing it.” Olin Miller“如果你想让一件很简单的事情变得很难完成，那么就尽量拖延着不要去做。”Olin MillerThe Work Environment: Color Y
40、our WorldProductive工作环境：美化你的世界生产率30Now hear this! Never say “yes” without considering the time investment you are committing. Having the courage to say “no” to requests that are inappropriate or unnecessary could be your most effective time management tool! 现在再来看看这个！不要在没有对你的承诺仔细考虑一下时间投资之前就说“是”。对不是很合
41、适或者不是必需的要求有勇气去说“不”实际上是你最有效的时间管理工具。31Take the time to understand the role of every department in your organization. This time invested up front will eliminate your “panic” when someone has an urgent request outside your department.花点时间去了解你们企业里面每个部门所担当的角色。这点时间的投资会减少当你接到其它部门的紧急请求的时候惊慌失措的时间。33Copy the w
42、orld every time you send a memo? But, realistically, does “the world” really care? When writing a memo or sending an e-mail, only distribute to the people who really need to know the information. Some of “the world” feels obligated to respond and then everyones time is wasted. 每次你发一份备忘的时候是否每个人都会收到？但
43、是事实上每个人都会关心吗？当写一份备忘或者发送一份邮件的时候，请仅仅发给确实需要的人。有些人会觉得他有义务需要回复他收到的每个消息这样大家的时间都被浪费了。34Want to get your written point across fast? Limit your sentences to fifteen words. 你想写得更快一点？请你每个句子都不要超过一五个词。（备注：这条好像对中文不是很适用）35Are you really listening! Every time you say, “But I thought you said,” you might as well be
44、saying, “I wasted all this time doing the wrong thing.” Listen, clarify, and make sure you understand the task before going forward. It is a good time investment for both parties.你确认你真正听明白了！每一次你说“我以为你说的是”的时候，你实际上是在说“我浪费了很多的时间在做错一件事情”。在开始执行你的任务之前，请听好，澄清并且确保你真正理解无误。这对双方来说都是划算的时间投资。36Is it your job to
45、pick up every ball that someone drops? Avoid this label at all costs! Think about it!你的工作就是处理别人的烂摊子？不要被人这么以为。好好想清楚。37Dont try to solve other peoples problems. You may be empathetic to their situation, but if you spend your time solving their problems, Surprise! Their next problem will become yours,
46、too! The best thing you can do is help others learn how to solve their own problems.不要试图解决别人的问题。你也许可以理解别人的出境，但是不要用自己的时间去解决别人的问题。如果这样的话，下次那个问题也是属于你的。你能做的就是帮助别人去学习怎么解决他们自己的问题。四、InterruptionsThe Office Plague “Got a minute? never means just one minute. Before you answer, always ask, Whats this about?”
47、Alec Mackenzie打断办公室的苦恼“你有一分钟吗”从不意味着只需要一分钟。在你回答之前需要先问一下“是关于什么事情的？” Alec Mackenzie38“Hey, you got a minute?” Thats a question, not a demand. Dont get angry with the interrupter if you answered, “Sure!” to their question. General rule: If you cannot eliminate the interruption, make the interruption as
48、short as possible. “嗨，你有一分钟吗？”这是一个问题而不是命令。如果你对这个问题回答“当然”的时候，就不要因为被打断而生气。一般规则：如果你不难避免被打断那么就尽量使这个中断越短越好。39When people arrive to interrupt, meet them at the door and talk outside your office. Letting them in may add minutes to the interruption. 当有人要过来打扰的时候，尽量在办公室的门外接待他们进行交谈。把他们让进办公室会躲增加几分钟的时间。40Stand up! When someone shows up unannounced, keep standing until you decide if yo
