現(xiàn)代的人生活越來(lái)越忙碌，卻疏忽了生命中一個(gè)重要的課題：你、如何與自己相處?當(dāng)我們靜下心來(lái)細(xì)細(xì)回想，可能會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)每天留給自己的時(shí)間少之又少。更可悲的是，我們還常常浪費(fèi)掉這寶貴的一丁點(diǎn)時(shí)間。

本文沒(méi)有結(jié)論，只是對(duì)我們提出了問(wèn)題。你的一天有多少屬于自己的時(shí)間?你又是如何安排它們的呢?

How Many Hours Are In Your Day?

你一天為自己留多少時(shí)間?

This isn't a feature article but just a quick note to everyone。

這并不是一篇專業(yè)論文，這只是對(duì)大家的一個(gè)小提醒。

How many hours do you have in your day?

你的一天有多少時(shí)間呢?

Theoretically, there are 24 in mine. Yours might be different。

從理論上講，有24個(gè)小時(shí)。當(dāng)然你也有可能不同(比如，如果你是火星人的話……)。

But I sleep about 6 hours a day. Maybe 2 hours are spent eating. Another 2 hours for grooming and driving. Another 3 hours for getting stuff ready for my kids, cooking, cleaning. Another 5 hours doing routine stuff at work and with the blog. Maybe another hour doing errands, paying bills, going to the grocery store, or whatever else needs to be done. Another 2 hours doing communication: email, IM, phones, etc。

我一天睡差不多6個(gè)鐘頭。也許花兩小時(shí)吃飯。另外兩小時(shí)打扮和開(kāi)車。再另外三小時(shí)的時(shí)間用來(lái)照顧我的小孩、煮飯、打掃?；?個(gè)小時(shí)做常規(guī)的工作上的事情，寫(xiě)寫(xiě)博客?；蛟S還有一個(gè)小時(shí)時(shí)間用來(lái)幫人跑跑腿、付賬單、去雜貨店、或者其他一些雜事兒。最后還有兩小時(shí)用來(lái)交流：寫(xiě)email，網(wǎng)上聊天、煲電話粥等等。

24 hours - 6 - 2 - 2 - 3 - 5 - 1 -2 = 3

所以：24小時(shí)- 6 - 2 - 2 - 3 - 5 - 1 -2 = 3

3 hours left over for doing stuff I'm passionate about, for pursuing my dreams, for doing new projects that will change my life, for writing the Great American Novel, for exercise, for spending time with loved ones, for myself。

剩下三個(gè)鐘頭來(lái)做我真正喜歡的事，來(lái)追求我的夢(mèng)想，來(lái)做一些可能會(huì)改變我生命的新項(xiàng)目、來(lái)寫(xiě)一本偉大的美國(guó)小說(shuō)、來(lái)鍛煉身體、來(lái)和愛(ài)的人呆在一起、來(lái)和我自己相處。

I'm guessing most of you have about that much time in your day for these kinds of things, give or take an hour or so。

我猜你們當(dāng)中大多數(shù)一天所剩的時(shí)間也和我差不多，頂多一兩個(gè)鐘頭的出入吧。

What will you do with your 3 hours?

那，你會(huì)用這三個(gè)小時(shí)干嘛呢?
