職場(chǎng)英語(yǔ)：把每天變得更好的三個(gè)法則

Simply plan your next day.. that’s how I finished my app.

這方法非常簡(jiǎn)單，我就是通過(guò)這個(gè)方法完成了我的 App 開(kāi)發(fā)。

One?—?must do

1.必須做的。

Two?—?after one

2.只有做完第一個(gè)，才能做的。

Three?—?reward

3.獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。

One man can do only few things in one day. And an average person stays alive for only about 29,000 days. If you are thirty you just lost your 11,000 days before reading this blog. So you have about 18,000 days more to live. Give or take a few. A day gone is gone. You can’t borrow, you can’t pause. You can’t go back. It’s one way forward direction.

一個(gè)人一天能做的事情有限。平均來(lái)算，一個(gè)人能夠活29000天，如果你已經(jīng)30歲了，那意味著已經(jīng)過(guò)去了11000天，只剩下18000天，當(dāng)然也有人會(huì)更多。一天過(guò)了就過(guò)了，你不能暫停，也不能借，不能回頭。時(shí)間，只有一個(gè)方向。

Let’s make the most of every single damn day.

讓我們把每一天都充分利用起來(lái)吧。

At 9:30 PM, write three things you want to do the next day on a stick note and stamp it on your bathroom mirror, the place you can’t miss when brushing your teeth next morning.

每天晚上9:30的時(shí)候，找一張便簽，按照上面給的三條，寫(xiě)下你明天要做的事情，貼在衛(wèi)生間的鏡子上。

No cellphones. No apps. No Reminders. Just stick notes. The point is to keep it there until the next day and replace it only if you have done it.

不要記在手機(jī)里、不要使用應(yīng)用或者提醒。就是一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的便簽，如果你頭一天完成了，第二天再換一張。

Wait a minute!

等一下!

These are not just three different things. They are related and dependent.

這并不是三件完全不相關(guān)的事。它們既獨(dú)立又有關(guān)聯(lián)。

One?—?is important but you are not so crazy about doing it. You always wish this is already done or tempted to postpone it. But this thing, if finished can really pay off.

一：它很重要，但是你就是提不起精神去做。你經(jīng)常希望這件事情已經(jīng)做了，也希望自己不要再拖下去。你甚至也知道，如果這件事請(qǐng)做了，好處會(huì)非常多。

Two?—?is important and you love to do it too. But the three-things-a-day policy is very particular about the order. You simply can’t do Two before One. One comes before two is confirmed with mathematical certainty and most importantly because Chuck Norris said so.

二：同樣很重要，并且你很喜歡做。只是，你不做完一，是不能做二的。按照這個(gè)順序，是希望你能夠完成，同樣重要但是你不喜歡的一。

Three— A movie. Walk in the park. Telling stories to children. This is the fun part. You get to do three only when you finish Two.

三：看場(chǎng)電影、出去公園溜達(dá)、或者給孩子們讀個(gè)故事。這部分是用來(lái)放松的，但記住，你只能做完一二，才能做第三件事兒。

I think I can tell you why three-things-a-day is simple and more effective than long term planning. We plan things which are not done. There will always be a gap from what has been planned and what is done.

我可以告訴你為什么一天三件事這種方法比長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)計(jì)劃更簡(jiǎn)單有效。我們計(jì)劃的事是還沒(méi)做的事。你計(jì)劃的事情和你真正實(shí)現(xiàn)的事，這中間是有一個(gè)差距的。

The longer you plan wider this gap will become. Shorter plans are more realistic. The shortest is one day. When you get exactly what you have planned, your brain is thrilled. This thrill is the key. The thrill is the fuel to get you going and asking you to go ahead and plan the next-three-things.

你的計(jì)劃越長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)，中間的差距也就越大。短時(shí)間的計(jì)劃更容易實(shí)現(xiàn)。最短的是一天。當(dāng)你一天能夠非常清楚的明白你要做的事情時(shí)，你的大腦很興奮。而這種興奮是你做事情的關(guān)鍵，它會(huì)助你繼續(xù)前進(jìn)，計(jì)劃后面三件事。

The thrill is not so effective when the gap is wider. Just follow the one day rule and you will be surprised how much you achieve in a month.

如果現(xiàn)實(shí)與計(jì)劃的差距太大，這種興奮不會(huì)產(chǎn)生效果。所以遵循一天法則，一個(gè)月后你會(huì)驚訝于自己的成就。
