集中注意力并不是一件很容易的事情，尤其是处在当前这个充满诱惑和纷扰的世界里。下面是继续告诉大家一些有帮助的方法：

　　14. Visualize the day in the morning, before it starts. 早晨、一天开始前想象下这一天。A little pre-work meditation on the day’s events is a great way to start the day off focused and productive. Don’t worry about a full 30 minute session, a quick review before you start the day is fine.

　　思考一下当天的事务是让你集中注意力、开始有成果的一天的好方式。不要担心自己要去完成完整的30分钟练习，在头脑中简单地过一遍就可以了。

　　15. Start the day right. 良好的开始。Starting the day with a good breakfast, some quiet time and/or exercise is a great way to set your day up for success. Sounds like a cliche, but it really works.

　　以一顿营养丰富的早餐、一些安静的时间，和、或锻炼开始新的一天，是开启成功的一天好方法。听上去是陈词滥调，但是却很有效。

　　16. Clean yourself up. 打理好自己。It’s why my track coach in high school made us dress up for big races: you perform the way you feel. And if you feel polished, groomed and ready, you’ll be more likely to be productive. For me this is just taking a shower, brushing my teeth and putting on casual clothing. I used to work all day without taking a shower in my PJ’s, but I never got much stuff done. Let’s be honest here… if you’re dressed really casually, odds are you’ll be working really casually. Just taking the time to clean up a bit before you buckle down for the day is never a bad idea.

　　这是我的高中田径教练让我们在大赛时穿着正式的原因：表现取决于感受。如果你感到自己整洁光鲜、准备好了，那么就更可能取得成效。对我而言，只要洗个澡、刷牙、穿上休闲装。过去我常常整天穿着睡衣工作，不洗澡，但是却从没有完成多少事务。老实说……如果你穿得真的很随意，可能你的工作态度也会很随意。在准备苦干一天之前，花些时间打理一下自己绝对没错。
