When people find out I write about time management, they assume two things. One is that I'm always on time. And I'm not. I have four small children, and I would like to blame them for my occasional tardiness, but sometimes it's just not their fault. I was once late to my own speech on time management.

We all had to just take a moment together and savor that irony.
我们都需要一点时间去好好地体味一下这有多么讽刺✵✶✷✸✹✺✻✼❄❅。
The second thing they assume is that I have lots of tips and tricks for saving bits of time here and there. Sometimes I'll hear from magazines that are doing a story along these lines, generally on how to help their readers find an extra hour in the day. And the idea is that we'll shave bits of time off everyday activities, add it up, and we'll have time for the good stuff.
第二☧☬☸✡♁✙♆。，、＇：∶；，人们老是假使我有很多关于何如撙节岁月的贴士和技能ⓊⓋⓌⓍⓎⓏⓐⓑⓒⓓⓔⓕⓖⓗⓘⓙ。有时候我听说少许杂志 在写这方面的故事❋❀⚘☑✓✔√☐☒✗✘ㄨ✕✖✖⋆✢✣，通常都是关于教读者何如在终日中获得额外一个小时⑰⑱⑲⑳⓪⓿❶❷❸❹❺。基本思绪是从的每个勾当中挤出一点岁月❋❀⚘☑✓✔√☐☒✗✘ㄨ✕✖✖⋆✢✣，加起来❣❦❧♡۵，然后我们有岁月做有意思的事情了ⓣⓤⓥⓦⓧⓨⓩ。

One of the women whose time log I studied goes out on a Wednesday night for something. She comes home to find that her water heater has broken, and there is now water all over her basement.

此中一个被我查究过光阴表的小姐☾☽❄☃，在一个周三晚上出去了一趟☈⊙☉℃℉❅，回家发现她的热水器坏了❻❼❽❾❿⓫⓬⓭⓮⓯⓰，地下室都被水淹了㊀㊁㊂㊃㊄㊅㊆㊇㊈㊉。假使你也遇到过这种事儿的话✵✶✷✸✹✺✻✼❄❅，你会懂得面前的景象多么令人溃散和懊悔✤✥❋✦✧✩✰✪✫✬✭✮✯❂✡★✱✲✳✴。
So she's dealing with the immediate aftermath that night, next day she's got plumbers coming in, day after that, professional cleaning crew dealing with the ruined carpet. All this is being recorded on her time log. Winds up taking seven hours of her week. Seven hours. That's like finding an extra hour in the day.
所以阿谁夜晚她着手治理✵✶✷✸✹✺✻✼❄❅，第二天她找了一个水监工ⒺⒻⒼⒽⒾⒿⓀⓁⓂⓃⓄⓅⓆⓇⓈⓉ，第三天找了专业的整理职员 治理破坏的地毯⒃⒄⒅⒆⒇⒈⒉⒊⒋⒌⒍⒎⒏⒐⒑⒒⒓。所有这些都算在了她的年华表内⒔⒕⒖⒗⒘⒙⒚⒛ⅠⅡⅢⅣⅤⅥⅦⅧⅨⅩⅪⅫⅰⅱ。总共花了她一周中的七个小时웃유ღ♋♂。七个小时☧☬☸✡♁✙♆。，、＇：∶；。这等于一周七天每天要挤出一个小时㈠㈡㈢㈣㈤㈥㈦。
But I'm sure if you had asked her at the start of the week, "Could you find seven hours to train for a triathlon?" "Could you find seven hours to mentor seven worthy people?" I'm sure she would've said what most of us would've said, which is, "No -- can't you see how busy I am?" Yet when she had to find seven hours because there is water all over her basement, she found seven hours.
但是若是你在这一周初步时就问她ⓚⓛⓜⓝⓞⓟⓠⓡⓢ，“你没关系在这周抽出七个小时加入铁人三项吗❋❀⚘☑✓✔√☐☒✗✘ㄨ✕✖✖⋆✢✣？”⒔⒕⒖⒗⒘⒙⒚⒛ⅠⅡⅢⅣⅤⅥⅦⅧⅨⅩⅪⅫⅰⅱ，“你没关系在这周抽出七个小时引导元首七个有潜力的人吗㊀㊁㊂㊃㊄㊅㊆㊇㊈㊉？“ 我确定她会像大多数人一样ⒺⒻⒼⒽⒾⒿⓀⓁⓂⓃⓄⓅⓆⓇⓈⓉ， 说⒃⒄⒅⒆⒇⒈⒉⒊⒋⒌⒍⒎⒏⒐⒑⒒⒓，”若何能够✺ϟ☇♤♧♡♢♠♣♥，你看不出我有多忙吗ⓚⓛⓜⓝⓞⓟⓠⓡⓢ？“ 但是她然后不得不抽出七个小时웃유ღ♋♂，因为她的地下室被水淹了ⒺⒻⒼⒽⒾⒿⓀⓁⓂⓃⓄⓅⓆⓇⓈⓉ， 她挤出了这七个小时웃유ღ♋♂。
And what this shows us is that time is highly elastic. We cannot make more time, but time will stretch to accommodate what we choose to put into it.

And so the key to time management is treating our priorities as the equivalent of that broken water heater. To get at this, I like to use language from one of the busiest people I ever interviewed. By busy, I mean she was running a small business with 12 people on the payroll, she had six children in her spare time.

I was getting in touch with her to set up an interview on how she "had it all" -- that phrase. I remember it was a Thursday morning, and she was not available to speak with me. Of course, right?

But the reason she was unavailable to speak with me is that she was out for a hike, because it was a beautiful spring morning, and she wanted to go for a hike. So of course this makes me even more intrigued, and when I finally do catch up with her, she explains it like this. She says, "Listen Laura, everything I do, every minute I spend, is my choice."
但是她光阴和我言语的原因是ⓣⓤⓥⓦⓧⓨⓩ，她远足了✵✶✷✸✹✺✻✼❄❅。由于那是春季一个漂亮的朝晨웃유ღ♋♂，因而她远足了⒜⒝⒞⒟⒠⒡⒢⒣⒤。云云的她让我变得更感兴趣了㈧㈨㈩⑴⑵⑶⑷⑸⑹⑺⑻⑼⑽⑾⑿⒀⒁⒂，当我相干上她时⑰⑱⑲⑳⓪⓿❶❷❸❹❺，她说：“听我说❋❀⚘☑✓✔√☐☒✗✘ㄨ✕✖✖⋆✢✣，劳拉ⒺⒻⒼⒽⒾⒿⓀⓁⓂⓃⓄⓅⓆⓇⓈⓉ，我做的所有的事情ⅲⅳⅴⅵⅶⅷⅸⅹⒶⒷⒸⒹ，我花的每分每秒✤✥❋✦✧✩✰✪✫✬✭✮✯❂✡★✱✲✳✴，是我的选择⒜⒝⒞⒟⒠⒡⒢⒣⒤。
And rather than say, "I don't have time to do x, y or z," she'd say, "I don't do x, y or z because it's not a priority." "I don't have time," often means "It's not a priority."

If you think about it, that's really more accurate language. I could tell you I don't have time to dust my blinds, but that's not true. If you offered to pay me $100,000 to dust my blinds, I would get to it pretty quickly.

Since that is not going to happen, I can acknowledge this is not a matter of lacking time; it's that I don't want to do it. Using this language reminds us that time is a choice.

But we are smart people, and certainly over the long run, we have the power to fill our lives with the things that deserve to be there.

Well, first we need to figure out what they are. I want to give you two strategies for thinking about this. The first, on the professional side: I'm sure many people coming up to the end of the year are giving or getting annual performance reviews. You look back over your successes over the year, your "opportunities for growth." And this serves its purpose, but I find it's more effective to do this looking forward.
我想给你们分享两个技术手段ⅲⅳⅴⅵⅶⅷⅸⅹⒶⒷⒸⒹ。一个①②③④⑤⑥⑦⑧⑨⑩⑪⑫⑬⑭⑮⑯，从职业的角度来说：我信任良多人在年尾的时候ⓣⓤⓥⓦⓧⓨⓩ，会发出或者收到年度绩效审查㊀㊁㊂㊃㊄㊅㊆㊇㊈㊉。你回头看看这一年的胜利和 “成长的机遇”ⓣⓤⓥⓦⓧⓨⓩ。这起到了它的效用✵✶✷✸✹✺✻✼❄❅，但是我发觉往前看会有效㊀㊁㊂㊃㊄㊅㊆㊇㊈㊉。

I'm sure many of you, like me, come December, get cards that contain these folded up sheets of colored paper, on which is written what is known as the family holiday letter.
