如何集中注意力（4）

集中注意力并不是一件很容易的事情，尤其是处在当前这个充满诱惑和纷扰的世界里。下面是继续告诉大家一些有帮助的方法：
10. Turn off extra inputs. 屏蔽扰乱你注意力的东西。These are IM and email for me, but we all have our Achilles heel. Completely turn off any distracting piece of technology that you own. Every one of these inputs tries to steal bits of your focus. And they won’t rest until they do.
每个人都有弱点，对我来说是即时通信工具和邮件。把你使用的任何会导致分心的科技产品都关掉。每个工具都在企图扰乱你的注意力，不得逞不罢休。
11. Set time limits for tasks. 给任务设定时限。There’s no motivation like a deadline. Giving yourself real deadlines is a great way to stay motivated and focused on the task. Given the fact that we human are natural procrastinators, it’s no surprise that we’ll take as long as we’re allowed to finish something. Setting real but attainable limits is a great way to keep the project humming, so to speak.
设定截止日期是最好的动力。设定严格的时限是保持动力和注意力的极好方法。人类天性拖沓，所以人们会用尽可能多的许可时间去完成任务一点也不奇怪。设定严格、实际的时限是让计划不断“轰轰”进行的极好方法。
12. Keep a journal of what you did throughout the day. 记录每天都做了什么。I like to use a moleskine notebook for my lists just so I can go back and review it every now and again, to see what I’ve done. Knowing how far you’ve come can keep you sharp and motivated to finish.
我喜欢用一本记事本记录工作清单，这样我就能不时回顾，看看都完成了什么。知道自己的进展可以帮你保持头脑清晰、有动力完成工作。
