帕金森定理告诉你为何要有deadline

    帕金森定理

    定理内容如下

    公司业务扩展,现有人员A无法胜任,需要增加人员,可能有三种情况:一是找一个能力远强于A的人来代替A,二是找一个能力与A相当的人员,与A分担工作,二是找两个能力一般的人员,听从A的安排。因为A是公司现有员工,建议一般是A来拿的,那么A会选择哪种方案了? 第一种方案,主动放弃位置,不划算;第二种方案,也可以选择,但以后自己说了不会算,提拨也多了一个竞争对手;第三种方案好象更合算,有人支使,也满足工作需要。 这就是“帕金森定理”所指出的机构臃肿的症结所在:不称职的领导必然会导致机构和人员冗余。

    引申的发现还有,

    给时间设置deadline

    work expands to fill the time available for its completion – means that if you give yourself a week to complete a two hour task, then (psychologically speaking) the task will increase in complexity and become more daunting so as to fill that week. It may not even fill the extra time with more work, but just stress and tension about having to get it done. By assigning the right amount of time to a task, we gain back more time and the task will reduce in complexity to its natural state.

    比如一件2h就能搞定的事,你给设置了2周,那么你的工作量反而会变多,变复杂。听起来似乎不可思议,为啥呢,就算工作量没变多,你天天脑海里悬着这件事,不也耽误了其他事的效率吗?

    拿自己来说,拖着发明专利不写,搞得每天心神不宁。

    一个人可以在10分钟内看完一份报纸,也可以看半天;一个忙人20分钟可以寄出一叠明信片,但一个无所事事的老太太为了给远方的外甥女寄张明信片,可以足足花一整天:找明信片一个钟头,寻眼镜一个钟头,查地址半个钟头,写问候的话一个钟头零一刻;一个人只需要3分钟时间就能干完的事情,却让另一个人花了一整天来犹豫不决、担心、操劳,而且疲累不堪。

    帕金森的结论是:“一份工作所需要的资源与工作本身并没有太大的关系,一件事情被膨胀出来的重要性和复杂性,与完成这件事花的时间成正比。”最忙的人最能找时间。

    如果你给一个任务安排的时间太多,任务是会膨胀的。

    Parkinson's Law dictates that a task will swell in (perceived) importance and complexity in relation to the time allotted for its completion. It is the magic of the imminent deadline. If I give you 24 hours to complete a project, the time pressure forces you to focus on execution, and you have no choice but to do only the bare essentials.

    再来理一理这个逻辑

    1.) Limit tasks to the important to shorten work time. (80/20)
    2.) Shorten work time to limit tasks to the important. (Parkinson's Law).
    The best solution is to use both together: Identify the few critical tasks that contribute most to income and schedule them with very short and clear deadlines.

    依据二八定律找到重要的20%来缩短工时,并且要设置deadline,以免任务膨胀嘛!

    多干正事

    These are tasks where 10% of what you do is important and 90% is absolutely useless. This forces you to tend to the important tasks – feeds you need to read in order to improve in your work。

    比如,你多久检查一次手机?每隔20分钟?这些事比如邮件啥的每天集中5分钟处理就够了,在没有完成你的任务清单时,不要再做这些琐碎事。这些都是不重要的80%。
