<DIV>The 7 Energy Sinkholes (and How to ***oid Them)  </DIV>
七大能量漏洞（与如何防堵！）
You only h***e so many hours in a day – how many of them are you wasting on these energy drains, 
when you could be improving your health instead?     
From Lifehack.org October 22, 2007
你一天的时间就这么多，其中你浪费了多少原本可以用来养身的时间在这些能量漏洞上？ 摘录自2007年10月22日Lifehack.org 
 Energy sinkholes are situations that repeatedly drain your energy and stress you out.  There are plenty of good reasons to invest your energy, so don’t waste your attention on a sinkhole.  Unfortunately, it is often hard to see sinkholes since they rarely cause a drain all at once.  Instead they slowly leech away at your lifeforce until you’re stressed, depressed and apathetic. 能量漏洞是泛指那些一再耗损你的能量和榨干你气力的情境。你的心力可以投入在太多正当的理由上面，不需要浪费在这些「漏洞」上。遗憾的是，这些漏洞不会一次漏完你的能量，他们都是慢慢地把你的生命力漏光，因此不易察觉，直到你累瘫、无力和完全没电为止！
 The best way to get out of these sinkholes is to get a routine.  H***ing a preplanned method to handle these problems can keep your mind focused on more important things.  Here are the big seven that may be stealing from you right now: 远离这些漏洞最好的方法是养成好习惯。预先安排好一些作法来面对这些问题，这样就能帮助你将心力专注在更重要的事情上面。以下是你现在可能正面临的七大偷取时间的贼：
 1 - Disorganization  混乱（事情的安排上毫无系统）
H***ing to constantly find documents, forgetting commitments and appointments is a huge sinkhole. The solution out of this is simply to create a system for organizing and routinely tidy it up.  You may h***e implemented a few systems, but here are some areas you might consider giving a clean-up: 经常在寻找文件、忘记该完成的承诺事项和约会是个严重的漏洞。解决办法就是建立一个系统来管理与归档，并定期整理与清理。你可能已经用过不同的系统，不过在此建议你该花时间清理的一些项目：
- Computer hard-drive 计算机中的硬盘
- Calendar 行事历
- To-Do Lists 待办事项
- Project Task Lists 项目任务清单
- Office/Desk/Home办公室/办公桌/居家环境
- Filing System档案管理系统
- Closets柜子/抽屉
 2 - Poor Diet and Lack of Exercise 饮食不当和缺乏运动
Exercising isn’t just to look good on the beach.  Staying fit keeps your energy levels high.  You can be slim and still be drained because you aren’t fit, so don’t use the scale as the measurement.  Here are some things you might want to consider to get out of this energy trap: 运动不只是穿得美美的出现在沙滩上而已。保持身材与体能可以让你精力充沛。你可能很苗条，但还是过度劳累，因为你体能不足，所以不要用苗条与否来当作标准。这里有几项建议可以让你远离这项能量漏洞：
 Make a Routine - Find a gym partner, class or workout time that you can exercise at least 3-4 times per week.  I’ve experimented with different amounts and found six days a week works best for me.  If you are unsure how to start,just try it for thirty days to see how it goes. 变成例行公事：找一位上健身房的同伴、课程或时段，可以让你维持一周运动三到四次。我试验过不同的运动量，发现一周运动六天对我的效果最好。如果你不知道从何做起，就放手试行30天，看看结果如何。
 Replace Foods One at a Time - Don’t try to overhaul your eating habits overnight.  They’ve been established over years, so they can’t change in a snap.  I recommend switching out one unhealthy food type for a month before making more changes.  When you take it gradually it is far easier to stick with long-term. 一次调整一种食物内容：别想在一夕之间改变你的饮食习惯。因为习惯的养成已行之有年，无法瞬间被改变。我建议在做多种改变之前先花一个月来戒除不健康的饮食种类。循序渐进地进行，能比较容易长期遵守。
 Time Your Meals - The best way to eat would probably be 5-6 ***aller meals spread throughout the day.  Since this isn ’t a reality for most people, a decent alternative is simply to time your meals so your blood sugar levels remain steady throughout the day.  This will ensure you aren’t starving for some parts and fatigued from a big meal in others. 定时用餐：最好的方法就是一天当中分五到六次，少量多餐。既然对大多数人来说不可能做到，替代方案就是定时用餐，让你一天中的血糖值可以保持稳定。这也能确保你不会有时空腹挨饿，有些时候又大吃大喝。 
3 - Problem Contacts  麻烦人物
We all h***e those few customers, clients and friends that cause a disproportionate amount of our stress.  I say the best solution is simply to fire them.  Cutting down on people who drain your energy can help you focus more productively on the rest.  If a transaction is fair, then both parties should h***e the ability to opt out if it becomes too much of a hassle. 我们每个人都有那么几个客户或朋友，造成我们或多或少的压力。我认为最好的解决办法就是赶走他们！如果彼此的交流是适当的，减少耗损你能量的人物可以帮助你更有效地聚焦在其它人身上。如果关系演变成是一种负担的时候，双方应该都有能力可以拒绝或离开。
 4 - Focusing on Your Weaknesses  专注在你的缺点
My definition of a weakness is anything you aren’t interested in becoming skilled at.  If you aren’t keen on improving, you can’t build strengths and any talent you do h***e will degrade.  Don’t try to do everything, and outsource the tasks that don’t fit within your strengths.  Virtual Assistants and freelancers can deliver a much higher quality than you could on your own, and often their fees are less than the cost of your time. 我对缺点的定义是你没兴趣钻研获取的能力。如果你不积极求善，你就无法扩大能力，且不进则退。别想要什么事都自己做，将你不擅长的部分发包出去。聘请助理或按件计酬的专业人士能做得比你自己做得质量要来得好，而且你付他们的费用通常也比你自己的时
间成本来得低。
 5 - Squeaky Hinges  发辗轧声的铰链（常用却不高效的工具）
A squeaky hinge is any piece of technology that works, but has irritating side-effects.  This could mean a computer that is too slow to run the programs you need.  A dish washer that doesn’t get all the food off.  Or an alarm clock that isn’t loud enough. 发出辗轧声的铰链是意指任何运作正常，却出现恼人的副作用的物品。可能是驱动软件速度很慢的计算机，无法完全洗清残渣的洗碗机，或是叫得不够响的闹钟。
 If the solution to a squeaky hinge is cheap, fix it immediately.  The costs will soon outweigh any replacement  expenses.  If the solution is expensive, write down the total cost and keep track of any wasted time/money due to the problem.  Keeping track of squeaks will make you aware of what the total cost is, and whether a replacement is warranted. 解决这些恼人副作用的成本是很便宜的，马上动手修理。否则这代价很快就会超过替换的成本。如果成本很贵，列出相关的费用，追踪这个问题让你浪费的时间和金钱。追踪这些恼人的问题能让你掌握总成本，和做出对是否要更新事物的决定。
 6 – Blog / E-Mail / Facebook Addiction 上网成瘾：博客/电子邮件/社群网站
Information addiction can be a huge drain to your energy.  I love using blogs, e-mail and social networking sites to get the latest news and keep in touch.  But that love can quickly turn into an obsession if you aren’t careful.  Soon you’re like the rat frantically pushing the lever for more cocaine doses as you hit Stumble one… more… time 「信息瘾」可能成为你能量耗损的一大原因。我爱用博客、电子邮件和社群网页来获取最新的消息和跟大家保持联系。但一不留心，这份热爱会很快地变成一种迷恋。很快地，你就像老鼠瘾头发作，急躁、颤抖地压着开关像要再吸一口古柯碱一样…
 My solution was to designate a time for information inflow and keep it restricted to that time.  Once per day is all I allow myself to read new RSS feeds, incoming e-mail and Facebook.  For other stats and random surfing I limit myself to once per week.  The result is more energy and almost no impact on communication. 我的解决方案是安排一个特定的时间来吸收新知识，并且只在这段时间内做这件事。我只允许自己每天花一定的时间阅读RSS feeds (Really Simple Syndication：真简单联合供稿，是一种以XML为格式基础的内容传送系统，方便读者直接在RSS阅读软件上实时看到所有订阅的文章)、电子邮件和Facebook社群网页。其它的统计和信息的搜寻我则规定自己每星期一次就好。这样做的结果是我获得更多的能量，毫不影响我对外的沟通与联系。
 7 - Pleasing People   取悦别人
Don’t waste your time trying to please the people around you.  This isn’t an excuse to be an inconsiderate jerk,but put a high value on your time.  Learn to say no to people who don’t show respect for your time.  Helping other people is great, but it’s better to focus on serving the greatest good than simply appealing to the whims of your friends and family. 别浪费时间，试图取悦你周遭的人。当然这也不是要你变成一个不顾别人的讨厌鬼，而是要更加珍惜你自己的时间。学习向那些不尊重你时间的人说不。帮助别人是好事，但是，最好是将心力集中在达成助人的最佳目的，而非只是帮忙亲友跑腿、应付突如其来的琐事。
 Don’t waste your energies trying to fit others expectations.  Set your own dreams, standards and ambitions and make 
them your highest priority.  When you’re nearing your end you’ll likely regret more the sacrifices you made to 
your individuality than how pleased your parents were of you. 别将心力浪费在符合别人的期待之上。设定自己的梦想、标准和野心，并将其列为你的最高优先级。当你越接近自己，你可能会遗憾自己所牺牲掉能花在自己身上的心力多于花在让父母满意的心力上。
