3. Decline the meeting
Sounds rude? OK, so don't just click decline. When you get these meeting invites and you know that these are not on your priority list (see 1 above), decline the meeting by adding that you are currently working on a tight deadline and can't make it. You can also add that you do not want to hold them back, but that you're looking forward to reading the meeting notes. Or, you could ask if you could perhaps close this over email or if the meeting can be moved by X days.
4. Block your time
Do it yourself. If you think you don't want to be rude/decline meetings, block time off your calendar so others can see you are busy. Be reasonable, though: you don't want all your days for the rest of the year completely blocked. Use this strategy to help protect just enough time to get your actual job done.

参考译文1:

3.推掉会议
听起来很无礼?是啊,所以不要只是单纯地推掉。当你收到会议邀请,又发现它和你的优先事务列表有所冲突,以你最近正急于完成某个紧急项目抽不出时间为理由推掉会议,你还可以说你不希望拖延,但是你想看看会议记录,你还可以询问是否可以通过邮件参与或者会议能否延至XX天。
4.限制时间
自己完成。如果你不想失礼、推掉会议,在日历上写下时间提醒,让其他人知道你很忙。不过要合理:你应该不会希望你接下来一年里所有的时间都被限制。使用这一策略来保证足够的工作时间。
