2. Create a Plan

　　制定計(jì)劃

　　At the start of your workday, before you even check your emails, make a plan. Jot down the three most important tasks you want to accomplish that day. Put a big star next to the most important. Now, before you get into the busy work of emails and photocopying and tidying your desk, start on that important task and see it through to the end.

　　在你剛開(kāi)始工作時(shí)，趁著還沒(méi)查看郵件，趕緊定個(gè)計(jì)劃吧。寫(xiě)下當(dāng)天必須完成的三個(gè)最重要的任務(wù)，最重要的那個(gè)打上標(biāo)記。然后趁著還沒(méi)開(kāi)始檢查郵件、影印資料或整理辦公桌等工作內(nèi)容前，趕緊著手那個(gè)最重要的任務(wù)并保證完成它。

　　Surprisingly few people take the time to plan their workday, and end up spinning their wheels on a number of low-priority tasks without really accomplishing anything big.

　　奇怪的是，很少有人能有計(jì)劃地工作，一天下來(lái)后還是周旋在幾個(gè)效率甚低的任務(wù)上，最后其實(shí)什么實(shí)事都沒(méi)做成。
