1. Your workplace is full of distractions
你辦公的地方太容易分心
Chatty coworkers, silly desk toys and emails of cute cats can put a damper on your ability to get things done. Eliminate distractions in your workspace by using noise-cancelling headphones or purchasing a white noise machine, work in a different area of the office or ask for a workspace reassignment, or log off of email or the internet completely when working.

2. You say "Yes" to everything that comes your way
你對所有落在你頭上的事情都應承下來
You don’t have to always say yes to everything that comes your way, be it an invite to a party or function, a question or even a chance to do something completely out of the blue. Think twice before saying yes to something – you have the power to control your schedule and your time.

3. You mistake work time for playtime
你把工作時間用來玩了
You say you’re working, but you’re playing yet another level of Candy Crush Saga…which one is it? Work or play? Playing during work time adds more time to your day and messes up your schedule. If you just sat down and worked, you’d be done so much sooner than if you stopped to play.
你說自己在工作
，可是你又玩了一關《糖果粉碎傳奇》遊戲……nidaodizaizuoshenme，shigongzuohaishiwan？zaigongzuoshijianwanshuahuirangnidegongzuoshijianyanchang

4. You don’t commit to scheduling meetings and appointments
你沒有出席計劃好的會議和約見
Not committing to meetings or appointments creates more work, effort and wasted time. Stop being wishy-washy when you receive an invite: you’ll either attend or not.
沒有應約出席會議或約見會增加你的工作量
，還會浪費時間。當你接受一項邀請的時候不要漫不經心，你要麼出席，要麼不要答應。
5. You don’t book your vacation well enough in advance
你沒有提前足夠多的時間預約休假
Your vacation days are racking up at work, you’re feeling drained and the year’s almost finished. Why didn’t you put in that vacation request months ago? Take action and be sure to book your vacations in advance, you’ll be happy you did in six months’ time!

6. You watch the clock too much
你總是在看時間
Counting all the minutes and seconds in your day isn’t healthy time management. If you’re constantly looking at or managing your schedule, you’re using up all your time: work and play time included.
工(gong)作(zuo)時(shi)總(zong)是(shi)讀(du)分(fen)數(shu)秒(miao)並(bing)不(bu)是(shi)健(jian)康(kang)的(de)時(shi)間(jian)管(guan)理(li)方(fang)式(shi)。如(ru)果(guo)你(ni)總(zong)是(shi)在(zai)看(kan)時(shi)間(jian)或(huo)者(zhe)管(guan)理(li)你(ni)的(de)日(ri)程(cheng)，你(ni)就(jiu)把(ba)時(shi)間(jian)都(dou)花(hua)完(wan)了(le)，包(bao)括(kuo)工(gong)作(zuo)時(shi)間(jian)和(he)娛(yu)樂(le)時(shi)間(jian)。
7. You get caught up in other people’s business and drama
你陷入了別人的事務和生活
"I heard Joey had this terrible truck accident last weekend, broke both arms, and has to settle things in court… plus his wife’s threatening to leave him and take the kids with her…" Blah, blah, blah. The gossip mills will always be turning with information that really isn’t useful to your life. Step away from the gossip and instead spend your time on yourself and creating a life you love.
“我聽說Joey上周末出了嚴重的卡車事故，兩條胳膊都折了，還要上法庭。而且他老婆還威脅要離開他，還要把孩子都帶走……”諸如此類的八卦總是源源不斷，而它們對於你的生活毫無意義。遠離八卦，把你的時間都花在自己身上，用來創造你愛的生活。
8. You make mountains out of molehills
你小題大做
You just broke the heel on your favorite pair of shoes! Your day is ruined…or is it? There’s no reason to waste time getting caught up on little things that can be fixed. Get the item fixed and move on with your life.
你最愛的那雙鞋的鞋跟壞了！你的一天都被毀了……是這樣嗎？沒有理由把時間浪費在那些可以處理好的小事上。解決了問題就繼續你的生活吧。
9. You check your smart phone every three minutes
你每三分鍾就看一下你的智能手機
Constantly checking email, text messages, social media all adds up over time, especially if you are trying to relax. Put down the phone—or better yet, shut it off completely to prevent yourself from checking in every few minutes.
過於頻繁地查看郵件

10. You volunteer too much of your personal time.
你自願犧牲了太多私人時間
Do you go out of your way to volunteer your time even when it isn’t asked for? Sure, helping people out is good, but being burned out and bitter is not. Strike a balance as to how much of your free time you’ll volunteer or donate to your favorite causes per month.

11. You participate in too many hobbies, clubs or extracurricular activities
你參加了太多的興趣活動、俱樂部或者業餘活動
You signed up for yoga, Spanish lessons, pastry making, juggling lessons and antiquecabinetry classes… every week! Stretching yourself thin is never good, especially when you were trying to relax in the first place. Narrow down your activities to one or two to keep things in check.
你報名了瑜伽課、西班牙語課
、點心製作
、慢跑課程、古董家具課……而且每周都如此!過分壓榨自己的時間本來就不好，尤其是你首先想要放鬆一下。控製一下
，把你的活動壓縮到一兩項。
12. You wake up late
你起床晚
Trying to squeeze more time in your day after a late start? Unfortunately relaxation and fun time are the first two things to get cut when you have a late start. Give yourself time to relax by getting a good night’s rest and waking up at the time you’re supposed to wake up.
因(yin)為(wei)開(kai)始(shi)的(de)晚(wan)了(le)，所(suo)以(yi)在(zai)白(bai)天(tian)拚(pin)命(ming)擠(ji)壓(ya)時(shi)間(jian)？不(bu)幸(xing)的(de)是(shi)

13. You don’t plan your day
你沒有計劃好一天的安排
A day without plans can quickly turn into a day of doing things for other people, or doing things that aren’t really necessary, thereby wasting your time even more. Get started by jotting down at three tasks that must get done for tomorrow, as well as when you’ll stop working so you can rest and relax.

14. You feel everything you do has to be perfect or "just so"
你認為自己做的每一件事都必須完美
Perfectionism can kill time in an instant. This isn’t to say you should do sloppy or incomplete work, but pick and choose your battles where you can do things well, better, and best.

15. You tell yourself you have no time to relax and have fun
你告訴自己沒有時間放鬆娛樂
Ahh, the classic case of self-sabotage. If you constantly tell yourself you don’t have any time for relaxing or fun, pretty soon you’ll believe it one hundred percent. Be adamant about finding times to relax and have fun: delegate work, rework your schedule, or give up that nonessential volunteer position.
