成功人士战胜拖延的方法。

 

They break up large tasks into smaller tasks.

 

他们把大任务拆分成小任务

 

 

The classic but seldom-followed productivity advice to conquering large or overwhelming tasks is to break them up into smaller chunks. Successful people understand that tasks need to be broken down into much more specific and measurable sub-tasks.

 

For example, an overwhelming to-do list item might be "write book." Does that item in my to-do list mean I need to write theentire book today, or does only writing one sentence count towards the completion of the task?

 

A better approach would be to set a goal of writing a specific number or words each day, or spend a certain amount of time researching.

 

"Write 1000 words"or "spend 30 minutes researching examples of productive CEOs for book" are much more specific tasks, and therefore easier to tackle. This often encourages me to get more done and feel accomplished and motivated by scratching to-do items off of my list.
