When you're just starting your career, you need all the help you can get managing your time. Even when you're working hard, you could be wasting a tremendous amount of time either by trying to multitask or by focusing too much on minute details.

如果你剛?cè)肼殘?，就?yīng)該盡一切可能學(xué)習(xí)時間管理。因為即使你愿意刻苦工作，你也可能花費過多的時間在多線任務(wù)和細節(jié)處理上。

Below, we've explained some of best time-management tips everyone should learn in their 20s.

下面就為大家推薦一些二十幾歲年輕人應(yīng)該學(xué)會的時間管理技巧。

1. There's always time. Time is priorities.

1. 時間是用不盡的，把時間擺在首位。

You never run out of time. If you didn't finish something by the time it was due, it's because you didn't consider it urgent or enjoyable enough to prioritize ahead of whatever else you were doing.

時間是用不盡的。如果你沒有按時完成某項任務(wù)，那是因為你沒有把這個任務(wù)看得非常緊急，或者你認(rèn)為做這個任務(wù)的過程并不能讓你享受，所以你沒能把它放在其他要做的事情前。

2. Days always fill up faster than you'd expect.

2. 時間總是過得比你想象的要快。

Build in some buffer time. As the founder of Ruby on Rails, David Heinemeier Hansson, said, "Only plan on four to five hours of real work per day."

設(shè)置一段緩沖時間。就像Ruby on Rails公司的創(chuàng)始人大衛(wèi)漢森所說的：“每天只需計劃4到5個小時的工作就夠了?！?/P>

3. Work more when you're in the zone. Relax when you're not.

3. 在單位多做工作，回家就放松。

Some days, you'll be off your game, and other times, you'll be able to maintain your focus for 12 hours straight. Take advantage of those days.

有時候你可能工作狀態(tài)不佳，有時候你甚至可以12小時連續(xù)高效工作。充分利用好效率高的時間。

4. Stop multitasking. It kills your focus.

4. 不要同時做多項工作，這會分散你的注意力。

There have been academic studies that found the brain expends energy as it readjusts its focus from one item to the next. If you're spending your day multitasking, you're exhausting your brain.

有研究表明大腦在調(diào)整注意力從某件事轉(zhuǎn)移到另一件事的時候，能量消耗加大。如果你一整天都在處理不同的事情，容易讓大腦疲勞。

5. We're always more focused and productive with limited time.

5. 有時間限制的時候我們會更專心，效率更高。

Work always seems to find a way of filling the space allotted for it, so set shorter time limits for each task.

工作似乎總能在規(guī)定的時間內(nèi)做完，所以給每一項任務(wù)少留一點時間。

6. Work is the best way to get working. Start with small tasks to get the ball rolling.

6. 進入工作狀態(tài)最好的方式就是開始工作。從小任務(wù)開始逐步進入狀態(tài)。

The business plan you need to finish may be intimidating at 8 in the morning. Get your mind on the right path with easy tasks, such as answering important work emails.

早上8點的時候看工作計劃可能會讓你望而卻步。先做一些簡單的任務(wù)，做好心理準(zhǔn)備，比如回復(fù)一些重要的工作郵件。

7. Expectations to do things perfectly are stifling.

7. 預(yù)想完美地完成任務(wù)會讓你倍感壓力。

General George S. Patton once said, "A good plan executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week."

喬治巴頓二世曾說：“正在執(zhí)行的好計劃比下周執(zhí)行的完美計劃好的多?！?/P>

8. More work hours doesn't mean more productivity. Use constraints as opportunities.

8. 工作時間長不代表產(chǎn)量高。把約束當(dāng)做機遇。

Don't kid yourself into thinking that sitting at your desk will somehow extract work from you. Do whatever you can to finish your current task by the end of regular work hours instead of working into the night.

不要想著坐在桌子前就是在工作。在工作時間把當(dāng)前的任務(wù)完成，不要熬夜工作。
