如何提高办事效率

Wake up earlier

早起

It may sound obvious, but if we're really going to start getting more things done in a day, then where better to start than right at the beginning of that day.

听上去或许老生常谈，但如果我们真想在一天时间内完成更多事情的话，还有什么办法能比早起更好呢？

Getting out of bed earlier gives us more time to do more stuff, and hopefully still have time left over for the things that matter, like family and friends.

早点起床能让我们有更多时间做事，而且说不定还会多出时间让我们和亲友相处呢。

Delegate

委派分配

One of the most common mistakes people make when it comes to getting things done is falling for the belief that they have to get it all done by themselves.

说起把事情做完，很多人最常犯的一个错误就是，以为所有事情都得靠自己单独完成。

Yet being able to ask for help often means that you can not only get more done, but get it done better than if you tried to do it all by yourself.

其实，如果懂得请人帮忙，你不仅能完成得更多，还能比你单枪匹马时完成得更好。
