職場(chǎng)英語(yǔ):這些事你要學(xué)會(huì)說(shuō)“不”
It's for your own good. Cut these things out of your day and you'll see gains in productivity--not to mention happiness.
把這些事情從你的生活中去除掉,你的效率將會(huì)有顯著的提高,幸福感也會(huì)大大提升。這么做都是為了你自己好。
If you get decent value from making to-do lists, you'll get huge returns--in productivity, in improved relationships, and in your personal well-being--from adding these items to your not to-do list.
如果你從任務(wù)清單中可以獲得巨大的回報(bào),比如提高辦事效率、改善人際關(guān)系、提高生活質(zhì)量等,那么把以下事情列入你的“拒絕清單”中也會(huì)有這樣的效果。

Every day, make the commitment not to:
每天,確保不要做以下這些事情:
1. Check my phone while I'm talking to someone.
與人談話(huà)的過(guò)程中查看自己的手機(jī)。
You've done it. You've played the"Is that your phone? Oh, it must be mine," game. You've tried the you-think-sly-but-actually-really-obvious downwards glance. You've done the, "Wait, let me answer this text..." thing.Maybe you didn't even say, "Wait." You just stopped talking, stopped paying attention, and did it.
你肯定做過(guò)這個(gè)事情。你肯定玩過(guò)這樣的把戲,“是你的手機(jī)在振嗎?哦,原來(lái)是我的。”你肯定做過(guò)試著用自己認(rèn)為很隱密的方式向下一瞥查看手機(jī),但其實(shí)卻很明顯。你肯定做過(guò)這樣的事情,“稍等下,讓我先回復(fù)這個(gè)短信…” 可能你甚至都不說(shuō),“稍等。”你就直接停止談話(huà),轉(zhuǎn)移你的注意力到手機(jī)上面去了。
Want to stand out? Want to be that person everyone loves? Stop checking your phone. It doesn't notice when you aren't paying attention. Other people? They notice. And they care.
你想要變得與眾不同嗎?想要人見(jiàn)人愛(ài)嗎?那么,在與別人談話(huà)時(shí),停止查看你的手機(jī)吧。如果你不看手機(jī),手機(jī)那頭的人是不會(huì)知道的。而正在和你談話(huà)的其他人呢?他們會(huì)注意到你的一舉一動(dòng),而且他們很在意這個(gè)。
2. Multitask during a meeting.
在一次會(huì)議中處理多個(gè)任務(wù)
The easiest way to be the smartest person in the room is to be the person who pays the most attention to the room.
想成為房間里最聰明的人,最簡(jiǎn)單的方法就是成為這個(gè)房間里最專(zhuān)注的人。
You'll be amazed by what you can learn, both about the topic of the meeting and about the people in the meeting if you stop multitasking and start paying close attention. You'll flushout and understand hidden agendas, you'll spot opportunities to build bridges, and you'll find ways to make yourself indispensable to the people who matter.
如果你在會(huì)議中不再一心多用,你就會(huì)變得更加專(zhuān)注,也就會(huì)注意到很多平時(shí)覺(jué)察不出來(lái)的東西,比如會(huì)議中的議題,與會(huì)的人員等。你可以從中了解到一些隱藏的議程,也能有機(jī)會(huì)去和別人建立聯(lián)系,然后找到合適的方法讓自己變得不可或缺。
3. Think about people who don't make any difference in my life.
為那些與你的生活沒(méi)有任何關(guān)系的人而分神。
Trust me: The inhabitants of planet Kardashian are okay without you.
相信我:沒(méi)有你的關(guān)注,卡黛珊們照樣過(guò)得很好。
But your family, your friends, your employees--all the people that really matter to you--are not. Give them your time and attention.They're the ones who deserve it.
但是對(duì)于你的家人、朋友、員工以及那些和你的生活密切相關(guān)的人來(lái)說(shuō),他們需要你的關(guān)注。請(qǐng)多陪伴他們,多關(guān)注他們。他們值得你這么做。
4. Use multiple notifications.
多個(gè)事件通知
You don't need to know the instant you get an email. Or a text.Or a tweet. Or anything else that pops up on your phone or computer.
你沒(méi)有必要知道你是不是收到了一封郵件或一個(gè)短信,還是一條推特消息,甚至是任何出現(xiàn)在你手機(jī)里和電腦上的消息。
If something is important enough for you to do, it's important enough for you to do without interruptions. Focus totally on what you're doing. Then, on a schedule you set--instead of a schedule you let everyone else set.
如果真的是要緊的事情需要你去做,即使沒(méi)有提醒功能來(lái)告訴你,你也會(huì)去做。完全專(zhuān)注于你正在做的事情。然后按照你自己設(shè)定的計(jì)劃來(lái)做,而不是照著別人的計(jì)劃行動(dòng)。
5. Let the past dictate the future.
讓過(guò)去決定未來(lái)
Mistakes are valuable. Learn from them.Then let them go.
錯(cuò)誤都是很寶貴的。從錯(cuò)誤中總結(jié),不要執(zhí)著于過(guò)去犯下的錯(cuò)誤。
Easier said than done? It all depends on your perspective. When something goes wrong, turn it into an opportunity to learn something you didn't know--especially about yourself. When something goes wrong for someone else, turn it into an opportunity to be gracious, forgiving, and understanding.
說(shuō)起來(lái)容易做起來(lái)難?這完全取決于你的態(tài)度。如果你犯了錯(cuò),把錯(cuò)誤當(dāng)成是學(xué)習(xí)的機(jī)會(huì),尤其是利用犯錯(cuò)來(lái)更多地認(rèn)識(shí)自己。如果是別人犯了錯(cuò),把錯(cuò)誤轉(zhuǎn)變成一個(gè)體現(xiàn)你和藹、寬容、理解他人的機(jī)會(huì)。
The past is just training. The past should definitely inform but in no way define you--unless you let it.
過(guò)去僅僅只是訓(xùn)練。過(guò)去會(huì)顯示出你不足的一面,卻不能以任何方式來(lái)界定你——除非你讓它這么做。

6. Wait until I'm sure I will succeed.
等待成功
You can never feel sure you will succeed at something new, but you can always feel sure you are committed to giving something your best. And you can always feel sure you will try again if you fail. Stop waiting.
對(duì)于一些新生事物,你無(wú)法保證自己一定能獲得成功,但是你卻可以知道自己有沒(méi)有盡最大的努力。你能確保自己在失敗后繼續(xù)嘗試。所以,停止等待吧。
7. Talk behind someone's back.
在背后說(shuō)人是非
If you've talked to more than one person about something Joe is doing, wouldn't everyone be better off if you stepped up and actually talked to Joe about it? And if it's "not your place" to talk to Joe, it's probably not your place to talk about Joe.
你對(duì)不止一個(gè)人談?wù)撽P(guān)于喬正在做的一些事情,但如果你親自去跟喬說(shuō)起這些,不是更好嗎?如果你沒(méi)有權(quán)利去和喬討論,那么你就沒(méi)有資格去談?wù)搯獭?/span>
Spend your time on productive conversations. You'll get a lot more done--and you'll gain a lot more respect.
把你的時(shí)間花在更有成效的對(duì)話(huà)中去。你將會(huì)完成得更多,并且獲得更多的尊敬。
8. Say "yes" when I really mean "no."
口是心非,不會(huì)拒絕
Refusing a request from colleagues, customers, or even friends is really hard. But rarely does saying no go as badly as you expect. Most people will understand, and if they don't, should you care too much about what they think?
拒絕一個(gè)來(lái)自同事,顧客,甚至是朋友的請(qǐng)求,真的很難。但是偶爾拒絕也并不會(huì)像你想象中那么壞。大多數(shù)人會(huì)理解的,而且如果他們不理解的話(huà),你也沒(méi)有必要去太多關(guān)注別人的想法,不是嗎?
When you say no, at least you'll only feel bad for a few moments. When you say yes to something you really don't want to do you might feel bad for a long time--or at least as long as it takes you to do what you didn't want to do in the first place.
當(dāng)你拒絕別人的時(shí)候,你只會(huì)難過(guò)一會(huì)。而當(dāng)你接受了別人的請(qǐng)求,但事實(shí)上這件事你確實(shí)不想做,你就會(huì)難過(guò)很久,至少?gòu)哪阋婚_(kāi)始不想接受到做完那件事的這段時(shí)期,你都會(huì)感到難受。
