早上八點以前到班就可以啦~ XD
Every morning you set a goal to leave the office in time to spend the evening hanging out with your loved ones. And every evening around 5 or 6PM, you look at the mound of not-done work and realize it's not happening.
But before you settle for another late night of Chinese food and furious family members, think about this: some people manage to have both fulfilling careers and fulfilling home lives. What do they know? After studying hundreds of time logs, I've realized that these successful people adopt a few key tactics for shutting down and shipping out:
1. Realize you can leave before everything's done. In our rapid-fire age, email, requests for assistance, calls and meetings can fill all available space. If you aim to go home with inbox zero, you may never go home. Work will always be there and will take whatever time you give it. So give it less time. We all have a point of diminishing returns.
2. Split your shifts. Leaving the office at 5PM doesn't mean you need to be done for the night. Try going home, spending time with your family or pursuing other personal projects, and then fire your laptop back up around 8:30PM for another hour or two. You'll probably be refreshed enough to solve problems that would have taken you until 8:30 if you'd stayed put.
3. Do a 4PM triage. If your to-do list for the day has been too ambitious, you'll probably realize, by mid-afternoon, that it can't all happen by 5PM. So at 4PM, go through and rank the most important tasks. If you knew that the electricity was going to go off in your office at 5PM, rendering more work impossible, what would you do before then? Do those things. Then stop. Pick up the to-do list again at 8:30PM, or the next morning. Who knows, maybe some of the problems will have solved themselves in the night!
What time do you leave work in the evening -- and what time would you like to leave?

如果知道下午5點將要停電,到了4點的時候有哪些待辦事項是你優先會去處理的,那些就是該先處理的。
我覺得這個觀點很不賴,而且當知道時間緊迫時,往往都能發揮無比的效率,超越人類的極限!
就像小時候趕暑假作業,或是長大後趕9點上班一樣 XD
不過比較優的策略還是妥善規劃,做好分配時間的計畫(雖然計畫永遠趕不上變化)
免得養成凡事都拖到最後才衝刺完成的壞習慣,要知道那種情況可是一點意外、差錯都不能有的
就像5點停電,拖到4點真的一點分神的事都不能發生
趕9點上班,8點50才出發,有事(下雨、車發不動、塞車)能夠應變的時間實在太短
應該切記並引以為戒!
