　　Take Back 10 Minutes in Your Day

　　You can’t save up your time. You have to use it all each and every day. However, you can choose how you use your time. And you can choose to eliminate those small time wasters that eat up your day.
　　你不可能把你的时间省下来，你不每天都得使用它。但是，你可以选择如何利用你的时间。你也可以选择剔除那些浪费你时间的小事。
　　Don’t underestimate the small amounts of time that you can save in a day. They add up quickly. Imagine all the things you could do if you just had an extra 10 minutes. What small amounts of time could you save today?

　　Here Are 10 Ways to Save 10 Minutes in Your Day:
　　下面是10种让你每天节省10分钟的方法：
　　1. Get Up Early – Want more time in your day? Try getting up earlier. Even a few minutes will give your day a head start. Be an early bird.
　　1. 早起——你想要更多的时间吗？ 试着早一些起床。 即使是很少的几分钟都会给你的一天开个好头，做一只早起鸟。
　　2. Plan Your Day – Don’t rush into your day without knowing what you need to do and what you are going to do. A few minutes planning now, can save you much trouble and stress later in the day.
　　2. 规划你的一天——不要在不知道你今天必须做什么和将要做什么的时候，就匆匆忙忙地开始你的一天。 事先规划几分钟， 可以帮你在随后的时间里省去许多的麻烦和压力。
　　3. Time-shift Your Commute – Do you spend too much time commuting to and from work? Shifting the time of your commute even a short bit earlier can make all the difference.
　　3. 改变你的上下班时间——你是不是要花费很多的时间在上下班路上？试着改变你的上下班时间，哪怕只是早一点点都会让所有发生改变。
　　4. Don’t Read the News – I am a big proponent of not reading the news. How many times a day do you check it? It’s probably the same 99% of the time. And it will be there for you later when you want to catch up.
　　4. 不要看新闻——我坚决支持不看新闻。你一天有多少次看新闻？99%的时间里新闻都是一样的。而且当你之后想要赶上进度的时候，新闻还是会在那里，可以等会儿再看。
　　5. Don’t Check Facebook - Do you really need to know what your “friends” are doing ever second of the day? Live your life instead of vicariously living through the status updates of others. Trust me, you aren’t missing anything.
　　5. 不要查看社交网络——你是不是真的需要知道你的“朋友们”每一秒都在做什么？ 过你自己的生活，而不是那种由别人更新的状态代替的生活。 相信我，你不会错过任何事情。
　　6. End the Meeting on Time – Don’t let that meeting go over its time limit. Don’t let it eat into the rest of your day. End it on time if it is your meeting. If you are stuck in someone else’s meeting, here is a magical phrase, “Excuse me, I have another appointment.”
　　6. 准时结束会议——不要让会议超过了它原定的时间限制，不要让它霸占你其他的时间。 如果这是你主持的会议，就要准时结束它。如果你被困在了其他人的会议中，有一个灵活的借口帮你摆脱：“不好意思，我还有另外一个会面安排。”
　　7. Don’t Complain – Complaining doesn’t get anything done. Save your breath. Instead, do something. Take action. Take those 10 minutes and invest them in something productive.
　　7. 不要抱怨——抱怨不会让你完成任何事儿。省省力气吧。做其他的事情，行动起来。利用这10分钟把它们用在更有效的事情中。
　　8. Bring your lunch – Do you go out to lunch every day? How much time are you spending driving down the road to wait and eat mediocre food? Pack your lunch and eat at the office. You will regain time and might just get to go home early.
　　8. 自带午餐——你是不是每天都出去吃午饭？你要为了一顿普通的饭，浪费多少时间在开车去吃饭的路上和等待上菜的间歇？自带午餐然后在办公室里吃。你就可以回收时间，然后就可以早点下班回家。
　　9. Skip That Line – Where do you spend time in line? Again, moving your schedule up by 10 minutes might just save you twice that, whether it is running errands, at the doctor’s office, or even at the elevator.
　　9. 跳过排队等待——你在哪里花费时间排队等待？同样的，把你的计划提前十分钟可能可以帮你节省两倍的时间，无论你是出差在外还是在医院甚至是在电梯里。
　　10. Get Help – Don’t let your stubbornness or pride keep you from asking for help when you need it. Instead, of wasting time on a problem you are having difficulty solving, get some assistance.
　　10. 寻求帮助——当你需要帮助时，不要让你的固执和骄傲阻止你寻求帮助，你应该去寻求帮助而不是在一个你很难解决的问题中浪费时间。
　　Add Up Your Time
　　合计你的时间
　　Take back the time in your day 10 minutes at a time. It adds up pretty quick. Do just six of these and you will have an extra hour in your day today. Then you’ll have to ask, “What would I do with an extra hour today?”
　　每天节省10分钟，它会积累得很快。只要节省六次这样的时间，你就能在你的生活中有额外的1小时时间。然后你会情不自禁地问，“今天这1个小时我做什么好呢？”
