职场英语：如何让你的周五和周一一样有效率

Schedule Breaks

打破计划

If the office is much quieter on a Friday than on a Monday, you may not get interrupted at all. While that sounds great,it also means the day can feel long, you might be more prone to procrastinating, or you find it difficult to concentrate and focus after a few hours of intense independent work. To combat that, schedule breaks. I wouldn’t set an alarm, but if you find yourself looking at the clock, give yourself structured work time and structured play time in an interval format to get you through the day. In the end, it will be more productive than attempting to exert your willpower 100% evenly. For example:

如果比起周一，周五办公室要安静许多，你可以完全不受打扰。尽管这听起来很不错，但也意味着这一天似乎更加漫长一点，你也许拖延症会加剧，或者发现自己在几个小时的独立紧张工作之后难以集中注意力了。想改善这个情况？那就打破你的计划吧。我不会设一个闹钟，但如果你发现自己会时不时看时间，给自己一个规划好的工作时间和玩乐时间，让自己熬过这一天吧。最后你会发现比起付出百分百的努力，这样做你的效率会高出很多。举个例子：
