Your lunch hour is your chance to get refocused, reenergized, and refueled for the rest of your day. Successful people treat it like the half-time show at a football game — an opportunity to regroup and consider how they’re going to play out the rest of their day.
午餐时间是你重新集中注意力,重获精力,再次充电的休息时间。成功人士把午餐时间当成是足球比赛的中场休息—一次可以重整旗鼓的机会,他们会利用这段时间思考接下来要怎么做。

The most successful people don’t spend their lunch hour at their desk. They use that time to do things like meet new people, exercise, and read.
最成功的人不会把午餐的时间花费在自己的办公桌前。他们会利用这段时间做其他的事情,例如,阅读,做锻炼,见不同的人。

Here are 10 things successful people do during their lunch hours:
下面为大家介绍成功人士在他们的午餐时间会做的10件事:

1. They plan their day with lunch in mind. They never schedule important meetings or conference calls right at lunchtime, and they typically block off at least 10 minutes of free time after lunch to reassess their goals for the day and shift priorities around, Kerr says.
1. 他们会利用午餐时间思考一天的计划。他们从来不会在午餐时间安排重要的会面或者会议。吃完午饭后,他们通常会单独呆上至少10分钟,重新审视一天的目标,调整工作重点。

2. They network. Try and set a goal to have lunch with a different person in your office or network at least once a week. You are guaranteed to learn something new about your organization or industry, and may even make some new mentors and friends in the process.
2. 他们会参与社交。试着确定一个目标,在午餐的时候,与不同的人在办公室就餐,或者每周至少一次进行此类社交活动。你会从中了解到公司或行业最新的动态,而且在这个过程中你还可能结识新的良师益友。

3. They get organized. Take advantage of this short break from work by making a to-do list for your personal life — or even to cross a few items off that list. Feeling like things are in control and organized in your life outside of work will free up mental energy and reduce stress levels to perform better professionally.
3. 他们会制定计划。“利用这段短暂的休息时间为自己的私人生活制定一个计划,或者将计划单上一些事项去掉。这样会让人感觉事情是可控的,自己工作以外的生活也是很有计划的。这样人的精神得到放松,压力减轻,工作起来也得心应手。

4. They take the time to eat. They eat healthy, and eat mindfully. Not being mindful leads to poor dietary choices such as eating too fast or eating junk food, which not only affects your health in the long run, but also affects your stress level and ability to focus in the afternoon.
4. 他们会花时间在饮食上。吃饭的时候,成功人士会注重饮食的健康,也愿意为此花费心思。不注意饮食习惯,比如吃饭过快,或食用垃圾食品,会长期影响你的身体健康,也会让自己产生压力,影响下午工作的注意力。

5. They reflect on their morning. Lunch is the ideal time to evaluate the progress you’ve made. If you have had a difficult morning, then remind yourself that you can hit the reset button over lunch and head into the afternoon with a positive attitude.
5. 他们会对早上进行反思。午餐时间非常有利于评价自己所取得的进步。如果早上过的不太顺利,午餐的时候提醒自己要按下重置键了,以积极的态度应对下午的工作。

6. They read. Successful people don’t spend their lunch hour reading emails and reports. They catch up on newspapers, blogs, and books.
6. 他们会读书。成功人士不会在午餐的时间处理电邮和报告。他们会抓紧时间读报纸、博客和书。 

7. They accomplish personal tasks. Successful people might run errands during their lunch hour, which they would not otherwise be able to take care of during the day. They also use this time to make personal calls, schedule appointments, write thank you notes, and achieve any other tasks from their personal to-do list.
7. 他们会完成私人事情。成功人士会在午餐的时间处理自己的杂事,这些事他们可能无法在一天内其他时间处理。他们还会利用这段时间来打一些私人电话,安排私人约会,写感谢便条,或者完成在待办事项上其他的一些事情。

8. They unplug and recharge. Use your lunch hour to recharge by shutting off electronics and enjoying some peace and quiet.
8. 他们会远离人群,重新充电。利用自己的午餐时间“充电”,关掉电子设备,享受一些平和安静。 

9. They spend time on career planning. During your lunch hour, take a few minutes to think about and write down what you want your professional future to look like, Kurow says. “Successful people rarely have time in the office to do this. Take a notebook, and find a place to journal your thoughts. ”
9. 他们会花时间进行职业规划。午餐时间,花几分钟思考并写下自己的职业愿景。成功人士很少在办公的时候花时间做这些事情。找出笔记本,找个地方记录下自己的想法。

10. They brainstorm. Successful people use this time to dream of new concepts, ideas, and solutions that can be applied to their professional and/or personal lives.
10. 他们会进行头脑风暴。成功人士会利用这段时间天马行空想出新的概念,想法,以及方案。这些想法、概念和方案可以应用到他们的职业或私人生活中去。
