    Today, I want to share with you a simple concept: how you spend your day is how you’ll live your life.

    今天要跟大家分享的话题是:一日看人生。

    Whether you are rich or poor, successful or unsuccessful, each of us has only 24 hours a day.

    不论是富人还是穷人,不论是成功者还是普通人,我们每个人的一天都只有24小时。

    All of us from one end of the Earth to the other, from the beginning of time to now and into the future have the same 24 hours to use.  Each of us uses that time differently giving us different results and very different lives.

    同样的24小时,也正是因为使用它的人用了各自不同的方式,得到了不同的结果,也就造成了每个人很不相同的人生。

    Each of us has a lot of repeated habits. In fact 70% of our behavior on any given day is the result of habits that we repeat each day.  Therefore, each day we are simply repeating the actions of the previous day.  Our lives then are the product of these repeated habits.

    我们每个人都有很多的习惯,我们70%的行为都受习惯的控制,所以我们的人生其实就是在重复中度过的。

    So I often tell my Yixiaoneng students one thing: “how you spend your day is how you’ll live your life.”

    所以我经常在易效能的线下课给学员们讲这样一句话:“如何过一天就是如何过一生。”

    Each day we are given 24 hours and we actually do not spend most of it working.

    一天24小时中我们能工作的时间其实不多。

    In the last lecture, we talked about the "three basic habits of life": eating, sleeping and exercising. These three habits will account for about 13 to 15 hours of our time in a day. If you can make full use of these 13 to 15 hours, then you will be healthier and have more energy to do the “important things” in the remaining 8 hours of your day. In this way, you will maximize your efficiency, and have the time to do what you want – those things that will get you closer to your dreams.

    上一讲中我们讲到的“人生三大基础习惯”:吃饭、睡觉和运动,这三个习惯大约就要占我们一天时间中的13-15个小时,如果大家能用好这13-15个小时,那么你就能更健康,更有精力去做剩下8个小时当中的“要事”,这样你的效率就会很高,你也才会有时间去做自己想做的事情。

    Most people live chaotic and inefficient lives and can you guess why?  It’s because they have bad habits and are unwilling to change those habits.

    大多数人都在过着混乱、没效率的生活。你知道原因吗?他们的习惯很不好,也没有决心改变。

    I often tell my students that there two ways to live life: offline and online.

    在易效能的线下课上我也常会给大家讲两种人生状态:线下的人生和线上的人生。


    What is offline life?

    线下的人生是怎么样的呢?

    We talked about this in our last lesson.  Remember that person who wakes at 7AM and sleeps at 11PM?

    就是上一讲中我们讲到的7-11的生活状态。

    Remember the person who is woken unnaturally by an alarm clock with little energy?

    也就是早上7:00被很多个闹钟叫醒。

    The inability to wake up in the morning comes from your decision to socialize or entertain guests at home until 11:00 PM at night.

    早上起不来的原因一般都是因为头天下午下班以后去外面社交或应酬到11:00才回家。

    Then when you get home and lie in bed do you go directly to sleep?  No, we often lay in bed, look at WeChat, read some magazine articles or message with someone over our phones.

    回到家后躺在床上习惯性地刷刷微信,看看鸡汤文,有的时候还留言骂骂人......

    And then you actually sleep later… around midnight.  It’s no wonder you cannot wake in the morning and when you do, you have no energy!  You are simply not getting enough quality sleep.

    一般要到凌晨之后才入睡,睡眠时间少,早上自然就没办法早起了。

    And if you don’t get up early in the morning, you will have no time to plan your day and organize your tasks or even to have a good breakfast.

    不早起你就没时间做“晨间检视”,也没时间对今天这一天要干的事做计划,甚至也没时间吃一个很好的早餐。

    Then you will be hungry well before noon and be hypoglycemic (that low on sugar) at 11:00, and you will begin to feel faint.  You will be unable to concentrate and will not be able to work efficiently.

    早餐没吃好中午就饿得快,11:00不到就低血糖,脑子开始犯晕,没办法工作了。

    And when you begin working, you will be distracted and complete unimportant tasks like shopping on Amazon or TaoBao or gossiping with your colleagues.

    应该工作的时间也是先做不重要的事,像是打开淘宝购个物,和同事聊聊八卦......

    Thus, the important things are pushed from the morning to the afternoon.  If your energy is lower in the afternoon than in the morning, your frog will become bigger and uglier and it will be more unpleasant to complete.

    重要的事留到下午来做,下午的精力更不好,青蛙变得越来越大,越来越丑,心情也变得不愉快了。

    And in the end, your work is inefficient so it takes longer to complete your tasks.  You must extend the time you spend working.  Instead of leaving at 5:00 PM you must work until 8:00 PM.  And then after work, you have a late meal with your colleagues and friends, and then go to the bar for a while. Then your day is over before you know it.

    于是工作更没有效率,工作时间就被拉得很长,然后你就不得不加班,本来下午5:00就可以下班的,但是因为手里的工作没做完,你就又要加班到晚上8:00,8:00从公司出来之后再和同事或者朋友去吃个宵夜,酒吧玩一会儿,基本上这一天就又要结束了。

    This hurried, inefficient, non-productive, unfulfilling life is the one most people live.  The life of 7 to 11.

    很多人就过着这样7-11的生活。这样的生活匆匆忙忙,效率很低。

    This is the offline life. Getting up late and going to bed late.  No exercise.  Lack of focus.  Working longer hours.Not having the discipline to go to bed when you arrive home and end the day but rather lying on it and distracting yourself with unimportant things because nothing meaningful was accomplished during the day.  Each day continuing to sleep late, vowing that things will be different, that he or she will change. But living the same life day after day, until slowly he or she begins to hate himself, or just becomes numb with the cloak of hopelessness and the feeling of powerlessness to change.

    所以我们总结起来就很容易发现:线下的人生就是晚睡晚起,每天没有运动,做事不专注,加班......晚上回到家躺在床上没有勇气结束这一天,因为他白天没干什么有意义的事,于是继续晚睡,继续发誓要改变自己,然后又日复一日地过着同样的生活,慢慢地,他就会开始讨厌自己,或者变得麻木。

    This is the life a person controlled by his bad habits.  This is the offline life.

    这就是线下的人生,被坏习惯所掌控。


    What about the online life?  How does it compare?

    那么与线下人生相对应的线上人生是什么样的呢?

    We get up when the first ray of sunlight enters the room;

    就是当早上第一束阳光照进房间的时候我们就起床了;

    Automatically we begin our morning rituals: take a cold shower, meditate for 10 minutes, write in the morning diary, read a few pages of certain books, run for 30 minutes, list the tasks we planned to complete today, and set the Pomodoro clocks to begin the task of eating the frogs.

    然后进入自己的晨间仪式:洗个冷水澡、冥想10分钟、写写晨间日记、阅读几页书、跑步30分钟,列出今天自己准备完成的事务清单,安排番茄钟吃青蛙......

    This time is designed to squeeze as much as work into a little time as possible so that work time can be reduced into spurts of focused energy so that we can use our time later to do the things we want to do.

    早上做的计划都是在使时间的密度加大,从而让工作的时间减少,最后是留出更多的时间去做自己想做的事情。

    In this way, you will increase your energy more and more, you will achieve greater things and your life will burst with excitement, and people will come closer and closer to you.

    这样你的能量就会越来越高,成果就会越来越多,你的人生就会越来越精彩,也会有越来越多的人靠近你。

    And most importantly, you will have the energy, the time and the means to focus on what is truly important to you – the opportunity to go after your dreams whatever that may be.  To create a life that is meaningful for you.

    而且这样你也更能聚焦目标,去做对自己人生积极有意义的事情。

    This is the online life.

    这就是线上的人生。


    What is the difference between the online and offline life?

    那线上和线下的区别在哪里呢?

    Not much.  The difference is in the small things.Go to sleep two hours earlier.  Wake up two hours earlier.

    其实只不过是把睡觉的时间提前了两个小时,把起床的时间提前了两个小时;

    Eat a healthy breakfast.  Eat a full and reenergizing lunch.Eat little supper.

    每天注意吃好早餐,吃饱午餐,少吃晚餐;

    At work reverse the order of tasks you complete.  Start with the important things.  End with the unimportant things.

    工作时间里先做重要的事再做不重要的事;

    Exercise just a little more in your life.

    在生活中加入运动的时间;

    And finally, eat frogs with vigor and energy.

    最后就是精力充沛地去吃青蛙。

    Day after day, year after year, the gap in the number of people who live the offline life and the online life grows wider and wider.

    就这样,日复一日,年复一年,人与人之间的差距就拉大了。

    The lives of online and offline people are drastically different, but if you look at their everyday lives… each day is only a little different.

    线上、线下的人生不一样,但只需一日,就能看出你的人生状态了.


    So focus on this day. Focus on the small things. Make the small changes.And from these small changes, your entire life will change dramatically.

    这就是我们今天的话题:一日看人生的意思。专注于小事,做一些小改变,将会改变你的一生。

    One last thing I want to tell you today.

    最后还想告诉大家的是:

    Kobe Bryant, one of the NBA’s greatest players, gets up at 4:00 AM every morning;

    科比每天早上4:00起床;

    时间管理100讲|017【习惯】|如何过一天就是如何过一生|中英文

    Ben Franklin, woke up at 5:00 AM and slept at 10:00 PMevery day, and every morning he asked himself, "What will I do today?" and each night he would ask “What have I done today”?

    富兰克林过晚十早五的生活,他还每天早上都问自己“我要做些什么?”  每天晚上同样要问自己“今天我做了些什么?”

    Michael Esiner, the President of Disney gets up at 4:30AM every day.  Steve Jobs when he was alive and Tim Cook – the leaders of Apple rose early in the morning.

    迪斯尼老总每天4:30起床,乔布斯、库克都是早起族;

    Tseng Kuo-Fan, a famous Chinese leader in the 19thcentury, rose early every morning. He said: "Getting up early is the basic rule to build a family, and getting up late is the bad quality that will destroy a family’s happiness and fortune.

    曾国藩每天也早起,他甚至说:“早起是治家之本,晚起是败家之凶德。”

    So, the whole day's work depends on a good start in the morning. If you can get up early, plan your day and eat frogs in the morning, your life will change dramatically.

    所以,一日之计在于晨,如果你能早起、能早上做计划、早上吃青蛙,你的人生就会变得不一样。

    Of course, you don’t have to do this every single day, and you can relax during a holiday, but we must develop the habit.

    当然你也不见得每天都这样做,在度假期间可以不那么严格,但是在工作期间,我们就要保持严谨。

    So which life are you living?  The online life or the offline life?  Change the little things, make them your habits and watch your life change before your very eyes.  Open a new chapter in your life.  Try it today!  Begin today!

    所以你正在过线上的人生还是线下的人生?如果你能养成过线上人生的生活习惯,那么你的人生将会从此开启新的篇章,今天试试看吧!
