7. Don't let yourself get too hungry. The Big Man goes without eating for hours and hours at a time, so once, trying to be helpful, I bought him a big bag of granola to keep in his desk. He ate the whole bag in one day and ended up sick as a dog. Lesson: eat regularly.
不要让自己太饿了。大男人一次可以长时间不吃东西,处于好心,我给他买了一大袋麦片作为办工食物补给。结果,他一天就把一袋都吃光了,结果生了一场大病。教训:饮食要有规律。
8. Take care of difficult calls, tasks, or emails as quickly as possible. Procrastinating makes them harder; getting them done gives a big boost of relieved energy.
对于难解决的电话、任务或电子邮件要尽快处理。拖沓会增加它们的难度。把它们搞定会极大提高轻松度。
9. If you're feeling overwhelmed, think hard about how you spend your time. Be honest. How much time do you spend surfing the internet, looking for things you've misplaced, or doing a task that's really someone else's job? Also...
如果你感到忙不过来,仔细想想自己的时间都花到了哪里。对自己诚实点。你花了多少时间上网、多少时间去寻找乱放的东西、多少时间去做其实是别人的工作?另外.....
10. Let yourself stay ignorant of things you don't need to know.
如果不需要知道,就别去知道。
11. Go outside at least once a day, and if possible, take a walk. The sunlight and activity is good for your focus, mood, and retention of information.
至少一天到户外一次,如果可能的话,散个步。阳光和运动对你的注意力、心情还有记忆存储都有好处。
12. Say "Good morning" to everyone. Social contact is cheering, and if you feel that you're on good terms with all the people in your office, you'll be happier each day. Also, it's polite.
对每个人说“早上好”。人际接触令人愉快,如果你感觉和办公室里的每个人都和睦,那么你每天都会更快乐。另外,这也是礼貌。
