如何提高办事效率
Stay out of the past (and don't go too far into the future)
告别过去（且避免过分想象未来）
How many times do we find ourselves dwelling on the past and reliving memories, both fond and painful? Physically, we're in one place at one time, yet mentally and emotionally we're somewhere else entirely. If we're not lost in once-upon-a-times, chances are we're projecting ourselves into the future, either worrying about things that haven't happened yet or daydreaming about what might be.
有多少次，我们发现自己既迷恋又痛苦地沉浸在过去及回忆之中？生理上而言，我们一次只能在一个地方；但心理和情绪上来讲，我们却可以完全身处异地。如果不是沉浸在过去之中，那我们很可能就是在想象未来——要么为还没发生的事情担忧，要么做着不着边际的白日梦。
Though it certainly pays to take the occasional look ahead in order to know where we're going, when it comes to getting things done, we benefit much more from being present in the moment and focusing on the now.
当然，偶尔预想未来能让我们清楚目前的状况；但若需把事情做完，我们还是应当多活在当下、珍惜现在。
By being alert and focused on the task at hand, we're more capable of doing what needs to be done.
只要保持敏锐并专心做好手中任务，我们肯定会越来越能处理好该做的事情。
