If you're not a morning person, that struggle to get up and out of the house every work day can be seriously hard work. Hell, even if you are a morning person, sometimes it's still an effort.

如果您不是一個(gè)早起的人，每天掙扎著起床到出門工作是件相當(dāng)不容易的事情。該死的是，哪怕您是一個(gè)愛早起的人，有時(shí)候還是要努力一下。

We have some tips and tricks that might help you shave valuable minutes off your morning routine, so you leave on time.Take a look through our useful suggestions below, then share any of your handy morning hacks in the comments

我們有一些小建議和技巧能夠幫助到您從早晨的瑣碎事情中節(jié)約些時(shí)間，讓您能夠按時(shí)上班。請(qǐng)參閱下面有用的建議，并在評(píng)論中分享下早晨的那些瑣碎事兒。

1. Don't hit snooze.

1.別打盹兒

Step away from the snooze button. You're deluding yourself if you think an extra 10 minutes will make that much difference. If you do manage to fall back asleep in that time, you're just going to feel even more sleepy when your alarm goes off a second time.

遠(yuǎn)離小睡按鈕。如果您認(rèn)為再來十分鐘就不困的話，那是在騙自己呢。假如最終您還是選擇再睡兒的話，等鬧鐘再鬧時(shí)，您會(huì)覺得更困。

Get in the habit of getting out of bed when your alarm sounds and you'll have a better, more efficient, start to the day.

養(yǎng)成鬧鐘一響就起床的習(xí)慣，那這一天會(huì)有一個(gè)更好的，更有效率的開始。

2. Get a shower timer.

2.備一個(gè)淋浴計(jì)時(shí)器

Force yourself to shower faster by investing in a shower timer. You can buy basic versions for only a matter of dollars, and you'll save that in just a few weeks by using less water and energy.Also, streamline your shower process. For example, if you wash and condition your hair first, the conditioner will be ready to rinse off once you've washed, shave or rinsed the rest of you.

買個(gè)淋浴計(jì)時(shí)器，迫使自己沖涼沖快點(diǎn)兒。您可以買那種簡(jiǎn)版的，只需幾美元，而且會(huì)在短短幾周內(nèi)通過使用更少的水和電回本。同時(shí)，要簡(jiǎn)化您沐浴的過程，比如：如果是先洗護(hù)頭發(fā)，洗發(fā)素要提前備好，一旦洗完，隨手就可以護(hù)理，剃胡須以及沖洗其余部分。

3. Automate your morning coffee.

3.自動(dòng)調(diào)制咖啡

If you're the type of person who needs a coffee before you can even think about beginning to get ready, consider a machine with a built-in timer, so you can wake to the smell of freshly-brewed java and get your fix that little bit quicker.You can buy programmable coffee machines for less than $30, so it's not even a major investment, but it could make a difference to your day.

如果您是那種不喝咖啡簡(jiǎn)直就無法思考的人，考慮備臺(tái)內(nèi)置計(jì)時(shí)器的咖啡機(jī)吧，這樣可以一醒來就能聞到新鮮調(diào)制好的咖啡，從而讓您的速度快起來。也可以買那種可編程的咖啡機(jī)，只不到30美元，這甚至算不上什么大的投資，卻能帶給自己不一樣的生活。

4. Sort your clothes the night before.

4.前一天晚上整理好衣物

Save many wasted minutes of indecision in front of your wardrobe every morning by checking the forecast for the next day and planning your entire outfit the night before. Not only will you avoid what-to-wear crises, but you'll spend less time hunting around for a certain tie to match a shirt, a pair of unladdered pantyhose or having to iron something last minute.

前一天晚上就規(guī)劃好明天的衣著打扮，可以節(jié)省每天早上杵在衣櫥前浪費(fèi)的時(shí)間。這樣做不僅僅能解決穿什么的問題，還可以讓您花更少時(shí)間到處找配襯衫的領(lǐng)帶、沒抽絲的褲襪或者最后的熨燙工作。

5. Go cold breakfast.

5.吃冷早餐

Don't give yourself extra work by trying to cook on the days you have to leave the house on time. A cold breakfast is quicker and can be healthier than anything you need to cook.Try making a big bowl of fruit salad twice a week and having a helping every morning. Give yogurt a go. Cereal or granola are other time-saving options. Then, when you do have time to make a cooked breakfast on days you're not working, it will be more of a treat.

不要在需要按時(shí)出門的日子花額外的時(shí)間做早餐。冷的早餐更快，而且比什么都健康。試試一周做兩次大碗沙拉，每天早晨一小盤。喝酸奶吃麥片也是很節(jié)約時(shí)間的。當(dāng)然，休息日的時(shí)候，您確有時(shí)間做早餐的話，那就把它看成一頓犒勞吧。

6. Set a countdown timer.

6.設(shè)置倒計(jì)時(shí)器

If you know you have to leave the house in 40 minutes, set a countdown timer to keep you on track. Having a visible reminder of the minutes ticking away might spur you into speeding up your morning routine, rather than letting the time creep up on you.

如果您確實(shí)要在四十分鐘內(nèi)出家門，就設(shè)置個(gè)倒計(jì)時(shí)器來跟蹤督促自己。有個(gè)可見的，不斷流逝的時(shí)間提醒器會(huì)刺激自己加快完成早晨瑣碎事務(wù)的速度，而不是讓時(shí)間慢慢浪費(fèi)掉。

7. Leave yourself notes.

7.給自己留便條

Don't rely on your morning brain to remember anything important. If you need to remember something, write a note and stick it to the back of your front door the night before. It will take mere seconds but save you time the next day having to return to the house when you realize you forgotten that important thing when you're already 15 minutes down the road.

早晨不要指望大腦幫您記住一些重要的事情。如果需要記些什么，請(qǐng)于前一天晚上寫在便條上，并將它貼到大門后。這樣做起來只需花幾秒鐘的時(shí)間，卻能省掉您在到達(dá)工作地點(diǎn)前十五分鐘突然發(fā)現(xiàn)忘記重要事物時(shí)，再返回家的時(shí)間。

8. Have a place for everything.

8.安排一個(gè)置放隨身物品的地方

Get organized and create a specific, permanent home for your keys, wallet, phone, coat, bag, umbrella, etc. A simple key rack, caddy and coat peg will do the trick. You will literally save collective hours by not spending that frantic 10 minutes before you want to leave the house desperately trying to locate your keys. As soon as you get home every evening, put everything in its proper place.

為自己的隨身物品如：鑰匙、錢包、電話、衣服、包包、雨傘等安排一個(gè)恒定擺放的地方。一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的鍵架、一只盒子、一個(gè)外套掛鉤往往就能達(dá)到效果。出門前如果不再花那寶貴的十分鐘瘋狂地找鑰匙的話，加起來真能節(jié)省到幾小時(shí)呢。因此，您要晚上一回到家，就把隨身物品放得妥妥的。

9. Utilize your commute.

9.利用好通勤時(shí)間

Depending on what kind of commute you have, use it to your advantage. If you're a passenger in a private car, could you eat your breakfast on the way to work? Do your make-up on the journey? If you're a train or bus user, you could use the time to check email, social sites and the news to save wasting time doing it at home. Those who walk to work could catch the headlines via radio.All of us can use the time to think about the hours ahead and get mentally ready for whatever the day will bring.

這取決于您用什么樣的通勤模式，好好利用吧。如果乘坐私家車上班，何不試試在路上早吃餐?或者在途中化妝呢?如果乘坐火車或者公交，可以利用乘車的時(shí)間做些本來要在家里做的事情，如：查收郵件，翻看社交網(wǎng)站以及新聞之類的。那些步行族，則可以通過無線電收聽新聞?lì)^條。我們所有人都可以提前規(guī)劃時(shí)間安排，為即將要做的事務(wù)做好準(zhǔn)備。
