八方修炼：时间管理的职场学问

但是，我们不用放弃科技去重掌时间。“你需要给自己和他人定好期望，”为《哈佛商业评论》写关于时间管理博文的丹尼尔·马科维茨讲道。你需要说清楚，“这是私人电话号码。有紧急事情可以打。否则，不要打扰我工作。”以下是八种时间管理的方式。

1. Finish simple tasks

1. 完成简单的任务

Always complete easy tasks, like reading a memo -- never switch between small projects. "The mind holds only about seven pieces of information at a time," says Carnegie Mellon psychologist David Creswell. "If you switch to other tasks, those pieces of information get scrambled and need to be relearned. It's a complete time waster." Bottom line: Don't try to do two simple tasks at once.

记得完成简单的任务，比如读便笺——绝对不要在简单的任务之间切换。“大脑一次最多可以保存七条信息，”卡耐基梅隆大学的心理学家大卫·克雷斯韦尔讲道。“如果你转而去做其他，这些已有信息被扰乱，就需要重新获取了。这纯属浪费时间。”底线是：不要试着一次去完成两项简单的任务。

2. Break up complex tasks

2. 分解复杂的任务

Complex tasks like building a budget differ from simple ones: You can complete them more quickly and efficiently by breaking them up. Creswell found people who had to complete challenging tasks did so more effectively when they took a two-minute break and worked on something completely different -- for example, doing a crossword when trying to finish your taxes.
