覺得自己在工作中常常浪費時間嗎？下面是一些幫你避免浪費時間的小竅門，希望能幫你提高工作效率。

1.If real work needs doing offline, disable the internet for an hour at a time.

如果這件事情不需要上網就可以完成，把網斷掉。

2. Turn email checks into an hourly habit, not an “as the box gets mail” habit.

延長查看電子郵件的周期。

3. Don’t answer your cell phone when working on something important. Call back later.

如果手頭的工作很重要，工作期間不要接電話，回頭再打過去就是了。

4. If you can’t work at work, negotiate finding a new place to get things done.

如果你的工作環境讓你不能工作，換個沒人打擾的地方

5. Television means: “I don’t need this time and it doesn’t matter to me.” (Almost always. Really.)

看電視意味著“這段時間我浪費了也無所謂”。

6. Budget your entertainment time vs. production time. Never cheat the other.

平衡你的娛樂和工作時間。

7. Examine every opportunity along the lines of time vs. projects already underway.

時時檢查你的時間安排和現在已經進行中的項目。

8. Try working part of your day in “off-hour” times, to get more done with fewer people around.

以小時為單位劃分你的工作時間，用更少的人做更多的事情。
