成功的人和不成功的人兩者之間,最關鍵的區別是甚麼?
What is the key difference between successful people and unsuccessful people?
試想一下,我們每個人一天有24小時,一周七天,一年365天~
Think about it, we all have 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year.
這是很公平的,是一個公正平等的戰場。
It's very, very fair. It si an equal playing field.
歸根究柢,我們成功的程度取決於我們如何善用我們的時間。
So at the end of the day, what determines how successful we become in how we use our time.
今天,我要和你們分享三個簡單的策略來幫你更妥善的管理自己的時間。
Today, I'm going to give you three simple strategies that will help you to manage your time better.
策略一: 固定一段時間檢查社群媒體和電郵
Strategy number one, time block for social media and emails.
你要明白,你每天早上醒來的時候,如果做的第一件事就是拿起手機,查看訊息.電郵.私訊以及社群媒體的話~
Understand this, when you get up in the morning, if the first thing that you do is go and reach for your cellphone,
and you're checking your messages, you're checking your email, you're checking your PM, you're checking social media.
起床後的第一個小時,那是最重要的一個小時。
That first hour every morning, that's your most critical hour.
你早晨做的事情將會決定你一整天的表現,
How you do in the morning dictates how well you do the rest of the day.
如果你起床後馬上查看訊息的話,歐,我懂得,我也明白那種感覺,好嗎?
If right there you're checking all these messages, and I know, I know what it is like, right?
早上醒來,你就想看看手機,心想: "我昨晚有漏掉甚麼訊息嗎?" "有發生甚麼事嗎?"有什麼動態更新了?" "我的朋友都在幹嘛?"
In the morning, you wanna go reach out for that cellphone, you want to see, "oh, did I miss any messages from last night?"
"What happened?" "What is going on?" "What's my friend up to?"
每天醒來的第一個小時是非常珍貴的,你應該想一想要如何更明智的運用它。
That first hour of every day, it's very, very precious. You should think about how you can invest that wisely.
對於有些人,也許你可以在早上看些書,也許你可以做點運動,來點鍛鍊~
For some, maybe you wanna do some light reading in the morning.
For some, maybe you wanna do a little bit of exercise, you wanna work out.
你也可以跟家人享受頓豐盛的早餐,那就是聯繫感情的時間。
For some, you want to have a very nice breakfast with your family, it is connection time.
而對有些人來說,那是設立目標的時間,想想今天有什麼目標是想達成的
For some, maybe it's time for you to set the goals and say, okay, what are some of the things that you want to accomplish that particular day?
我不建議你直接進入"電郵模式",我總是說,你的收件箱裡都是別人的事情,每次你檢查收件箱,裡面都是一堆需要你的專注並會讓你從目標分心的事。
What you don't want is to jump into "email mode". I always say your inbox is other people's agenda.
Every single time you check your inbox, there all these things that just demand your attention, that pull you away, that distract you.
你不需要每天檢查10幾次郵件,也不需要每天檢查社群媒體10.20次
You don't wanna check your emails 10 times a day, and you don't wanna check your social media 10, 20 times a day either.
你很容易就把一天的時間花在盯著螢幕,就只是反反覆覆的在檢查訊息
It's very easy to screen suck all day and you're just checking messages repetitively.
而且每隔10~20分鐘就去察看手機........你真的需要做到那種地步嗎?
And you check it every 10, 20 minutes.......Do you really need to do that?
我常使用這個比喻:你會每天檢查你住家處的信箱10~20次嗎?那你為什麼要檢查電子信箱10~20次?
The metaphor I use all the time is, do you check your mailbox 10, 20 times a day? Then why would you go check your inbox 10, 20 times a day?
我的做法是,我會固定一段時間檢查我的社群媒體訊息和電郵,甚麼時間開始,甚麼時間結束
One of the things that I do is block out the time for social media and I block out time for email.
That's it. I have a start time, I have an end time.
我不會一整天都在看社群媒體,因為我知道我還有其他事情要做,我還有更多重要的事項要去完成。
I don't go check social media 10, 20 times a day because I've got other things to do, I've got more important things I have to accomplish.
所以,固定好一段時間"我早上會檢查一次"或是"我下午檢查一次",其他時間,你去做些重要的事情
So, block it. Block out a time and say, "Okay, I'm gonna do it in the morning, once in the morning." If you want to, "I'm gonna do it once an evening."
In between, you work on important things.
比方說你的項目.你的生意以及你的事業等等,這樣你才能保持專注~
You work on projects, you work on your business, you work on your career, whatever that you are working on.
That's how you stay focused.
你要知道,時間管理其實是一個迷思,因為事實上你並不能"管理"時間
You see, time management is actually a myth because you cannot actually manage time.
你不能讓它跑快一點,也不能讓它走慢一點,我們也不能產出更多的時間,我們能做的就只有管理好事情的優先順序
You cannot make them go faster, you cannot make them go slower, we cannot create more time.
All we could do is actually manage our priorities.
所以當某人告訴我:喔,我沒有時間
So when someone tells me, "Oh, I don't have time."
他們的意思是: "這件事情對我不重要" "這不是我要優先處理的事",這些才是真相
What they're actually saying is, "This is not that important for me." "It's not my priority."
That's the truth.
因此,時間管理,也就是優先順序管理,說到底,優先順序管理其實就是自我管理,取決於你如何管理你自己,管理你的精力
So, time management is actually priority management.
And at the end of the day, priority management is actually self-management, how you manage your self and how you manage your energy.
你應該把精力投放在那些為你帶來快樂.健康.幸福以及成功的事務上,這才是關鍵
What do you invest your energy in, into something that will contribute to your happiness, to your health, to your wellbeing, to your success, that's the key.
策略二:找出自己的"魔法數字"
Strategy number two, know your magic number.
假設你的財務目標是年賺10萬美金,六位數收入,平均計算,你一週工作40個小時,我們一年有52週,假設你休息兩周
Let's say your financial goal is to make $100,000 a year, six-figure income.
On average, you work 40 hours a week, and we have 52 weeks a year, let's say you take two weeks off.
那50週乘上40小時就是2000小時,然後把你的年度目標,也就是10萬美金收入除以2000小時,就會是一小時50美元
So, 50 weeks times 40 hours, that's 2,000 hours, take your annual income goal, $100,000, let's divide by 2,000 hours.
You get $50 per hour.
這就表示說,如果你的目標是年賺10萬美金,代表你的"時薪"至少要是50美金
So what it means is this, if your goal is to make $100,000 a year, and your hourly rate needs to be at least, at the minimum, $50 an hour.
重點來了,檢視你每一天所做的事,然後問自己一個問題"我現在做的事是否值每小時50美金?"
Now, here is the key. Look at everything that you do every single day and ask yourself this question,
"Is what I'm doing worth $50 an hour?'
如果答案是否定的,那你哪來的方法讓自己年賺10萬美金?這是非常簡單的因果關係
If what you're doing is not worth $50 an hour, then how the hell in the world ever are you gonna get to $100,000 a year?
It's cause and effect.
其實真正的數值應該會比這個預設值還要高,因為老實說,你我都知道,我們無法無時無刻都保持效率
The number is actually higher than that, because if you and I are honest, you know we're not productive all the time.
所以好好想想,
So think about that.
這也與第三個策略有關,那就是避免做"最低薪資"的事情
This leads to strategy number three, and that is to avoid minimum wage activities.
你擁有的每一分鐘都是投資
Every single minute that you have, is an investment.
金錢的道理很簡單,它就是數學,你投資了X,你獲得Y回報,這就是投資者思維
Money at the end of the day is incredibly simple, money is math.
You invest X, you get Y back. That's an investor mentality.
問題是當我們談到時間的時候,大部分人都抱有著浪費者的心態,他們浪費自己的時間
The problem is when it comes to time, most people have the wasters mentality.
They waste time.
又或是花費者心態,無目的的在花費自己的時間
Or spenders, they just spend time.
中文有句諺語說得很好, "一寸光陰一寸金,寸金難買寸光陰",所以明智的使用自己的時間
There's a Chinese proverb that I like.
"An inch of time is worth an inch of gold." "But you can not buy the inch of time with an inch of gold."
So choose wisely how you want to invest your time.
因為到了最後,你會有怎樣的人生,取決於你怎麼善用時間
Because at the end of the day, your life is nothing more than a reflection of how well you invest your time.
