音頻鏈接：喜馬拉雅｜時(shí)間管理100講
Starting today, we will discuss the "habit" component of time management.
從今天開始，我們將進(jìn)入時(shí)間管理的“習(xí)慣”領(lǐng)域。
Habits are behaviors that are controlled by our subconscious mind.
習(xí)慣，就是由我們潛意識(shí)來(lái)控制的行為。
70% -80% of human behavior is controlled by habit.
人的行為70%-80%受到習(xí)慣的控制。
All of us have both good and bad habits but can you guess which kind of habit most of us have more of?? That’s right, more of our habits are bad than good.
其中有好的習(xí)慣，但更多的是不好的習(xí)慣。
In fact, the difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful people have more good habits than bad habits.
其實(shí)成功人士或者優(yōu)秀人士與不成功不優(yōu)秀的普通人的區(qū)別就在于：優(yōu)秀的成功人士擁有優(yōu)秀的習(xí)慣。
Aristotle once said: "Excellence is a habit."
亞里士多德說(shuō)過(guò)這樣一句話：“優(yōu)秀是一種習(xí)慣！”
So what IS the relationship between habits and time management?
那習(xí)慣和時(shí)間管理到底有什么關(guān)系呢？
Tasks that we can control with our subconsciousness require no tools and only a minimal amount of energy from our brain.? This is what it means to have converted an action into a habit – it becomes so easy to perform that it requires almost no energy.
人能用潛意識(shí)來(lái)管控的事務(wù)就不需要再費(fèi)大腦去思考，更不需要用工具來(lái)管理。
In fact these tasks that can be done without thought or effort are done automatically.
而這些不需要思考和管理的事務(wù)，它就能自動(dòng)化運(yùn)行。
The more things we can automate, the more efficient we will be and the more free we will be.我們身上有越多能自動(dòng)化運(yùn)行的事務(wù)，我們的效率就會(huì)越高，我們也就越能獲得時(shí)間的自由，甚至是人生的自由。
For example：
例如：
Every day we brush our teeth without thinking.? We breathe in oxygen and our heart beats every second of every day without thought.
我們每天不用思考就會(huì)自動(dòng)地刷牙、呼吸、心臟跳動(dòng)......
These behaviors are controlled by our subconscious, and we do not have to think about whether to do it or not.
這些行為都是受潛意識(shí)控制的，我們不用去思考它要不要做。
Another example:
再例如：
Driving.
開車。
When we are first learning to drive, we must focus on each individual task from looking at surrounding traffic, anticipating the actions of other drivers, turning the steering wheel, remember traffic rules.
在我們還不會(huì)開車的時(shí)候，我們就需要用眼睛去觀察周圍的路況，用大腦去記憶很多的交通規(guī)則。
At first, it takes a tremendous amount of energy for our brain to process so many different things at one time.? There is a great amount of stress and anxiety and we grow tired very quickly.
剛開始上路的時(shí)候，我們是更會(huì)非常緊張地快速運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)大腦去判斷各種各樣的情況。
But over time, as we repeat this behavior over and over again, these actions become more familiar to us and require less and less thought and energy.? They become conditioned reflexes.? They become automatic behaviors.
但是慢慢地，當(dāng)我們熟悉了駕駛之后，我們對(duì)車輛的操控更多就是出自于條件反射。
Driving becomes easier and easier as the skill becomes more and more of a habit.
駕駛變得容易被管理，開車的技術(shù)也慢慢變成了我們身上的一種習(xí)慣。
So today I want you to understand we must develop the habit of good time management.
所以今天我想告訴大家的是：一定要養(yǎng)成時(shí)間管理的習(xí)慣。
Great time managers are simply men and women with excellent habits.
優(yōu)秀的時(shí)間管理者背后，他們擁有的就是無(wú)數(shù)的好習(xí)慣。
For example:
就比如說(shuō)：
I’ve said before that in order to write everything we think about in our minds onto paper, it is necessary to develop the habit of recording information at any given time;
我在之前講到“要把大腦里的事寫下來(lái)”，要養(yǎng)成隨時(shí)記錄的習(xí)慣；
In addition, we should always use tools such as a calendar, OmniFocus or other apps to arrange our own time.? This is another habit we must develop.
還有，大家要經(jīng)常運(yùn)用工具，例如日歷、Omnifocus等軟件來(lái)安排自己的時(shí)間，要養(yǎng)成靈活使用工具的習(xí)慣。
Can you see how great time management is not a magic trick or a natural born trait?? It is nothing other a series of excellent habits… a group of finely tuned skills that can be learned?
好了，到這里，大家就知道了要養(yǎng)成時(shí)間管理的習(xí)慣。時(shí)間管理的習(xí)慣是一群優(yōu)秀的好習(xí)慣的集合。
So how can we develop these habits?
那么如何才能管理好這一習(xí)慣呢？
It should begin with the right work-life balance.
這就要從大家的工作和生活時(shí)間的配比來(lái)講起。
Every 24 hours there are many things that we must do.
在一天24小時(shí)中，我們大量的事情是重復(fù)做的。
Our habits control our actions and if our habits are efficient and our life is organized then our actions will also be efficient and organized.?
很多習(xí)慣在控制著我們的行為，如果你的習(xí)慣是高效的，如果你的生活是有序的，那你一定是被好習(xí)慣控制著；
Examples of good habits include going to bed and waking up early, and completing a morning ritual after getting up.? A ritual that I recommend is take a cold shower and drink a cup of honey water each morning.
比如說(shuō)你會(huì)早睡早起，早上起床后你會(huì)有自己的晨間儀式，就像我建議大家做的：可以洗個(gè)冷水澡，喝杯蜂蜜水等等。
For example, let me share my morning ritual with you:
以我自己的晨間安排為例：
Each morning after I awake, I firs take a cold shower.
早上起來(lái)之后，我會(huì)先洗一個(gè)冷水澡；
Then, I write in my morning diary.
接著寫寫晨間日記；
Next, I run and then eat breakfast.
然后再進(jìn)行跑步，吃早餐等等。
If I am away from home teaching class, I call my children in the morning, and if I am at home I take my children to school.
如果我人在外地講課，早上我就會(huì)給孩子們打個(gè)電話，如果我在家，早上就會(huì)送孩子去上學(xué)。
At different times throughout the day, when I have good energy, I will open my phone contextual list, and make calls.
碎片時(shí)間我會(huì)把手機(jī)里的電話清單打開，精力好的情況下就給對(duì)方打個(gè)電話。
At other times, I will meditate, exercise. These things are done for only a few minutes.
碎片時(shí)間有時(shí)候我也做冥想，或者做一些只要幾分鐘就能完成的力量訓(xùn)練。
These small habits have become so automatic and routine that I do them without thinking at the same times throughout the day.
這些行為在我常年的行動(dòng)下，已經(jīng)潛移默化成了我的習(xí)慣。
Behaviors that are directed by habit require no energy or focus.?
習(xí)慣了的行為就不需要再用大腦或者工具去管理了。
As long as you are in the appropriate situation and context, your brain will recognize the situation and respond with the automatic habit.
只要處于適合的情境下，身體就會(huì)自動(dòng)地去做符合這個(gè)情境的行動(dòng)。
So while others must concentrate and focus, I can complete tasks with ease and automation… things like:
因此我不會(huì)像很多人一樣，每天還要想著：
Determining which clock I need to set to wake up in the morning.
今天晚上我要幾點(diǎn)鐘睡覺(jué)？
At what part of the day should I exercise, the morning, noon or night?
今天我要哪個(gè)時(shí)間段去運(yùn)動(dòng)？
When you need to think hard about these things, they become additional tasks on your list and require more energy.? They greatly decrease your efficiency.
還要思考這些事，在無(wú)形中就給自己增加了很多要管理的事件，從而拉低了自己的辦事效率。
The more habits you can generate in your habit, the more automatic your actions will be and the less time and energy you will use.?
在生活里，如果大家能養(yǎng)成很多很好的習(xí)慣，讓生活自動(dòng)化去運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)，那么你就能節(jié)約很多腦力和時(shí)間。
You will save your energy to use on the more important things like accomplishing your goals and dreams, enjoying your hobbies, and other meaningful things.
從而把精力花在工作要事上，花在自己的目標(biāo)和夢(mèng)想上，花在自己的興趣愛(ài)好上，花在更多有意義的事物上......
Your life will become more meaningful, more exciting, and more colorful.
這樣你的人生就會(huì)更加豐富多彩。
It is so important to develop good habits because if we do then we will spend less time working and more time living.
生活中養(yǎng)成好習(xí)慣非常重要，因?yàn)槲覀兩畹臅r(shí)間遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)了工作的時(shí)間。
In the next lesson, I will discuss more about habits including the secrets to successful life!
在接下來(lái)有關(guān)“習(xí)慣”的系列話題中，我將告訴大家生活里的許多秘密。
Can you see how much time we waste every day focusing on things we should automate?
看看每天究竟有多少時(shí)間是被我們浪費(fèi)掉了？
Can you see how we must change the way we live in order for our lives to truly change for the better?
以及我們應(yīng)該如何來(lái)管理自己的生活？
Can you see how we must make our lives more meaningful?
如何讓生活更有意義？
