Think Leverage
If there is one keyword in your mind, that word should be “l(fā)everage.” There are enough resources out there that can help you make your work and life easier. What is common among all these resources is that you need to invest first before you get a return.
It seems logical but it’s hard to put into practice. Invest in resources (i.e., relationships) for the long haul and keep configuring these resources for projects with a win-win approach to get the highest leverage.
我們頭腦里面最關(guān)鍵的詞就應(yīng)該是平衡。有太多的資源可以使我們的工作和生活變得更加容易，而一個(gè)普遍法則就是在你想獲得回報(bào)前你需要提前進(jìn)行投資，努力涉獵你任務(wù)將會(huì)對(duì)你工作和生活有價(jià)值的所有資源。
這道理上將很簡(jiǎn)單，但卻很難付諸于實(shí)踐，首先對(duì)資源的投資必須是一個(gè)長(zhǎng)期努力的結(jié)果和回報(bào)，同時(shí)你還需要計(jì)劃對(duì)這些資源進(jìn)行高效的配置和平衡。
Building Future Capacity
As you progress in your career, your job responsibilities will change and you will need new skills to excel in your roles. While you are very busy with sharpening your skills that are required to flawlessly execute on your current job, it is extremely important to carve out time to acquire the necessary skills required for your future roles. In essence, you need to invest in building your future capacity.
當(dāng)你的職業(yè)生涯取得進(jìn)步的時(shí)候，你的工作職責(zé)將會(huì)改變而且你需要新的超過你當(dāng)前角色的技能。而在你磨練當(dāng)前崗位或角色技能的時(shí)候你可能更需要花時(shí)間來學(xué)習(xí)＆鍛煉你未來崗位或角色所需要用到的技能。簡(jiǎn)而言之，你需要對(duì)你的將來能力提前投資。
In summary, rather than trying to check off more items on your “To Do” list, start thinking about getting higher leverage from every hour of your life.
根據(jù)上文我個(gè)人的總結(jié)為時(shí)間管理的境界并不是關(guān)注重要而緊急的事情，而是關(guān)注重要而非緊急的事情。關(guān)注重要而緊急的事情是局眼于現(xiàn)在，關(guān)注重要而不緊急事情則是為未來投資。
