今天的朗讀內容來自 Steve Pavlina,題目是 130 Days Off Per Year。
在文中,他提出了一個觀點:雖然我們每天上班 8 小時,但其實真正有效的工作時間其實只有一兩個小時!那麼如何提升工作效率呢?文章也給出另一位作者的解決方案:就是乾脆多休息,在休息日中完全不考慮工作的事。
你覺得這個方案怎麼樣?如果全年真的有 130 天可以不工作,你準備用來做什麼?練習英語的時間可以分配到多少?
Have fun!
John

130 Days Off Per Year
By Steve Pavlina
Can you summon the self-awareness to recognize when you’re putting in 8+ hours at your desk, but you only get 1-2 hours of REAL, meaningful, focused work done? How many days do you need to have like that before accepting that it’s time for a serious reset of your motivation, drive, and focus?
What’s the solution? In many cases a great solution is to take more time off. It’s often counter-intuitive, but it works.
One simple reason is that when work time feels overly abundant, it’s very easy to waste it. Unproductive pseudo-work creeps into each day… until most of each day has drifted away from our core value-generating activities.
In his book The Success Principles, Jack Canfield recommends taking 130-150 free days each year. A free day means that from midnight to midnight (a full 24 hours), you do no work whatsoever. No work-related email. No social media. No dwelling on work-related problems. You don’t touch any work-related activities unless you’re dealt an absolute emergency.
When you』ve found work that engages you, it’s so easy to allow work-related activities to bleed over into every single day, including so-called off days. I’m as guilty of this as any entrepreneur. I find it especially difficult not to work since my field is personal development. My work and personal life are already intertwined, and I can work from anywhere.
You may be wondering: What would you actually do with 130-150 days off each year? Without work to fill the time, what are you supposed to do instead? Watch TV? Play video games? Go hiking?
