我們都知道只要專注做一件事,就能夠將它做得好。但是,我們總是習慣三心二意,想要同一個時間內,可以處理好幾件事,結果不僅時間被拆得支離破碎,而且完成每件事的時間拖長了,而且品質可能受到了影響。
如何改進?請練習做30分鐘的時間管理,你會發現效果宏大。
我們通常會設定60分鐘來練習做時間管理。但是,這樣做的缺點是,在60分鐘內,你可能會去接電話、泡咖啡、上網瀏覽幾個網頁,等等,還是不能夠讓你夠專心。
相對的,如果你將預備完成一件事的時間,限制在更短時間,例如,30分鐘,你就會察覺你擁有的時間是很寶貴的,你必須更專心,更有效的去完成它。
在和人們開會或是討論事情時,可以先約定:【我們只有10、15分鐘】,那麼一起對話的人,就會專注在只談最重要的內容。人們也會更專心傾聽,因為他知道不能錯過重要的信息。
這樣做的效果是很明顯的,每個人都節省了時間與成本,工作的效果提高了。
以下是幾個30分鐘時間管理效益的例子:
- 客戶會準時出現。人們通常會更在意一個只有30分鐘的約會。
- 每個人會準時開會,會議更有效率。與會的人會注意抓住僅有的發言時間,並且會更關注會議討論的結論。
- 每個人在與會前,會做更好的準備,會思慮得更周詳。沒有時間讓你繞圈子說廢話。每個人在發言的內容上,會更有深度,讓他的主張得到被重視。
- 每個人會關注在最有機會的議題,努力克服困難,并自動做好討論議題的優先次序。
- 從有經驗的事情做起。如果你設定要達成的事情是沒有經驗做過的,你無法確信是否可以在30分鐘內完成。但是,你需要體驗有效做完一件事情的過程是如何做到的。因此,先選擇你有經驗的事情來做,成功完成的過程記下來。這會有助於你面對新事物時,有更好的想法去安排。
- 先思慮好。對於要做的事情,先想好你要得到的結果的樣貌,以及可能會遇到哪些困難?
- 決定好你想要發生什麼變化?你認為做些什麼可以帶來改變?想好如果啟動事情的條件,例如人或資源,沒有到齊,會有什麼影響?你可以接受次佳的結果嗎?你還有其他時間重做嗎?
- 開會最重要的成果是會議后會有什麼後續行動。請保留最後5分鐘來做會議總結,確認好後續行動項目的負責人,以及必須完成的時間表。讓大家知道採取行動后,可以得到哪些成果。
然而,注意,不要因此又回到了總是會三心兩意,想要一次做幾件事情的壞習慣。
Do a good job of 30 minutes time management, let you become an expert
We all know that if we focus on one thing, we can do it well. However, we are used to being ambitious. We want to deal with several things in the same time. As a result, time is not only broken down, but also the time to complete everything is prolonged, and the quality may be affected.
How to improve? Practice 30 minutes of time management and you will find great results.
We usually set aside 60 minutes to practice time management. But the disadvantage is that in 60 minutes, you may answer the phone, make coffee, browse several webpages online, etc., or you can't concentrate.
In contrast, if you limit the time you have to prepare for a task to a shorter time, say, 30 minutes, you will realize that the time you have is precious, and you must be more attentive and effective in completing it.
When meeting or discussing things with people, you can make an appointment first: [We only have 10 or 15 minutes], so the person who talks together will focus on only the most important content. People also listen more attentively because they know they can't miss important information.
The effect is obvious. Everyone saves time and cost, and the effect of work is improved.
Here are some examples of the benefits of 30-minute time management:
- Customers will appear on time. People usually care more about a 30-minute appointment.
- Everyone meets on time and the meeting is more efficient. Participants will pay more attention to the only time available for speaking and the conclusions of the discussions.
- Everyone will make better preparations and think more carefully before the meeting. There's no time for you to talk nonsense in circles. Everyone will have more depth in the content of his speech, so that his proposition will be taken seriously.
- Everyone will focus on the most opportune topics, strive to overcome the difficulties, and automatically prioritize the topics to be discussed.
Here's how you can practice 30 minutes of time management.
- Start with something experienced. If you set your goals to be accomplished without experience, you can't be sure if they can be accomplished in 30 minutes. But you need to experience how the process of effectively completing a task works. So, first choose what you have experience to do, and write down the process of successful completion. This will help you to have a better idea of how to arrange when you face new things.
- Think first. For what you want to do, first think about what you want to achieve and what difficulties you may encounter?
- Decide what changes you want to make? What do you think can change? Think about the impact if the conditions for starting things, such as people or resources, are not in place. Can you accept the second best result? Do you have any other time to redo it?
- The most important outcome of the meeting is what follow-up action will be taken after the meeting. Please reserve the last five minutes to make a summary of the meeting, confirm the person in charge of the follow-up project and the timetable that must be completed. Let everyone know what results can be achieved after taking action.
After several such exercises, you will have the experience and courage to challenge more difficult tasks. You will learn how to judge which obstacles are difficult and how to solve them. In this way, you will be more confident and mature in the future to expand your problem solving ability. You can be more proactive in setting your future goals.
Nevertheless, be careful not to return to the bad habit of always trying to do a few things at a time.
