精力，而非时间是高效表现的最重要的因素

Energy, not time, is the fundamental currency of high performance.

精力，而非时间是高效表现的最重要的因素。

Every one of our thoughts, emotions and behaviors has an energy consequence,for better or for worse. The ultimate measure of our lives is not how much time we spend on the planet, but rather how much energy we invest in the time that we have. The premise of this book—and of the training we do each year with thousands of clients—is simple enough:

无论好坏，我们的思想、情绪和行为对精力都有影响。衡量生命最终不是看在地球上所生存的时间，而是看在有限的时间内的精力投入。本书的基础概念，同样也是我们给数千名客户提供培训所依据的基础，是非常简单的：

Performance, health and happiness are grounded in the skillful management of energy.

高效表现、健康和幸福都需要有效的精力管理。

我的思考My Thinking

每个人都希望能够高效表现，用最少的时间获得最大的结果，但高效表现主要受限于精力而非时间，我们的体能、思想、想情和行为都会影响到精力的质量。衡量设生命质量不是看活了多久，而是看他活着的时候如何使用其精力，这让我想起来，罗曼罗兰说过的话，“大部分人在二三十岁上就死去了，因为过了这个年龄，他们只是自己的影子，此后的其余生只是在模仿自己中度过，日复一日，更机械、更装腔作势地重复他们在有生之年的所作所为、所思所想、所爱所恨。”自己当然不想要这样的生活，要不然现在已经提前“死掉”了。
Each and every one wants to be high-performing which produce maximum outputs with least time. However effective performance is not constrained by Time but Energy, which is impacted by physical state, thoughts, emotions and behaviors. The measurement of life lies in how we make advantage of our Energy not by how long we live. This reminds me of Romain Rolland's,"Most men die at twenty or thirty; thereafter they are only reflections of themselves: for the rest of their lives they are aping themselves, repeating from day to day more and more mechanically and affectedly what they said and did and thought and loved when they were alive."
