Most of us would like to accomplish more than what we are able to in a day. How many times have you felt that it would be so much easier if you only had a few more extra hours in a day to complete the various tasks that you have on your plate? And how many times have you wished that you could do with a lesser amount of stress and strain that your workload is causing you?

大多数人想完成比我们一天里所能完成的更多的事情。有多少次你觉得如果一天里只要再多出几个小时那样完成你案桌上的各项任务就会变得容易得多？有多少次你希望你可以处于一种较轻的工作压力和较低的紧张情绪中工作？

The thing you need to know to overcome this feeling of being over laden with work all the time is to be able to manage your time better. And the most important thing to understand is that time management is not something that you can do as and when you feel that work is getting difficult to handle. It is a lifestyle that you need to adopt and practice each and every day of your life! It is a habit that will lead you to a life where you have peace of mind, better and more efficient work churn out and more time on your hands to do the things you enjoy.


 为了克服所有时候总是这样超负荷工作，你所需要知道就是能够更好地管理你的时间。需要理解的最重要的事情是，时间管理不是处理工作中的紧急变故。它是一种生活方式，你要接受它并在生命中的每一天履行它！它是一种习惯，可以引导你进入一种静心的生活，从而产生更高、更优质的工作效率，继而有更多的闲暇时光来做你喜欢的事情。
The other thing to appreciate when you start off on your journey to be able to manage your time better is to be prepared that this change that you are going to adopt in your lifestyle will take some time to internalize. It is not something that you can switch on at will. But also be aware of the fact that once this change has been made, life will be much smoother.


 当你踏上通往更好的时间管理的旅程时，另一件需要明白的是你要准备一段时间来接受这种生活方式上的改变并能够和它融合。它不是你可以随意改变的东西，但也要意识到一旦改变形成，生活亦必会变得舒畅得多。
There are many techniques that you can adopt to help you in managing your time better and get a kick-start in this process. And the best technique to start with is to learn how to focus on the job at hand. This can be done once you have prepared a list and prioritized the tasks that you have on hand. But once you have decided to take up a particular job, don’t let yourself get distracted on the way. Don’t allow thoughts on other projects to mingle and disturb your thought process. Ensure that you are determined to complete the job at hand before you allow your mind to take detours into other arenas awaiting attention. Avoid taking any kind of breaks while you are at that task and ensure that you complete it before you consider a cup of coffee or a call that you need to make.


 你可以采用许多方法来帮助自己更好地管理时间，并抓紧启动这一行动。最好的启动方案是学习如何关注手头的工作。你只要准备一张列表并把手头工作按轻重缓急排序，它就算完成了。但是一旦你决定开始一项特殊的工作，别让自己心神不定。别让对其他项目的想法牵绊你的思路。确保自己下定决心先完成手头的工作，然后让思路迂回到其他需要关注的竞技场。避免在工作时的任何中断，确保在你想喝一杯咖啡或必须打的一个电话之前完成它。
Learning the tricks of determination, concentration and discipline shall ensure that after a while you will get so used to focusing on the task that you are doing that you will not need to consciously drive out errant thoughts from entering. At this level, you can safely assume that you have learnt one of the tricks of time management that will ensure that your work gets finished on time and is far better in quality that it used to be earlier.
