How to Make time efficient for you?

How much is your time?

 "I saw a man who sold oranges yesterday. I asked: How much is it? He said: How can I know the price. Don't ask. Just give me some money and take it away ."

If Sun tells such a joke in public, I believe everyone will laugh at me: Where will there be such a person ?! However, in the workplace, there are many people who don't know how much they are selling, just like the orange seller. Today's world is actually very clear: a "Time is money, efficiency is life" society, a "people through desperate work in exchange for salary, dignity and status" society. Ultimately, your value is embodied through the exchange of value between your time and society. Among them, your value includes tangible value (salary) and intangible value (dignity, status, influence, etc) So, "How much is your time ?" This issue is very important, but you must be aware of it. If you really don't know, it will mean-you don't know your own value, you don't know how to sell yourself, and you don't know how to change your payment back to the value. If you do this, you will eclipse the old Ben! Those who have worked hard for the rest of their lives, but in the end are empty-handed. To tell the truth, they are all about the work of the old man.   A friend asked: Is my annual salary divided by one year's working hours, that is, my time value? Well. Reliable. A friend also asked: Is my job's national average annual income divided by the working duration of one year? Well. Relatively reliable. Another friend asked: Is my company with the highest job title in the same industry treated by a one-year working duration? Well. A little reliable.   It's hard to hear the old sun. Some friends are in a hurry: Hi, old sun. What do you want to say? -- In fact, if you are the master of time, you should make the value of time as much as it is!   So, how can you make your time efficient for your confused master? Here, sun gives his friends a simple method. This method is to say a word. This sentence is -- " I only have 10 minutes !" With this sentence, time begins to work efficiently for you.   Why? Why? Some friends suddenly realized: I understand. In rare cases. If your time is scarce, your value will increase. When you say that your time is scarce, in the eyes of others, you will become very precious. Is this true? Very correct. However, the meaning of the sentence "I only have ten minutes" is far from that simple.   1. Once you say this, your staff will start to work efficiently for you. There is an "elevator assumption" in the workplace ". A good suggestion, a successful solution, how to judge? Put you and your boss in the elevator. You can persuade him in five minutes. This suggestion is good, and this solution is successful. I believe that everyone in the workplace should have heard of it at least. The implication is that you should do a lot of preparation work, and the success or failure depends on the short five-minute elevator time, because the boss's time is limited. The "elevator hypothesis" makes sense. However, the "elevator hypothesis" is more reasonable. When you tell me clearly in advance: I only have 10 minutes. Then, he must make more preparations within the same scheduled time, so as to make the Organization clearer, the evidence more powerful, and the logic more explicit communication and persuasion work. In other words, he must work efficiently to make his time serve your time.   2. After saying this, your boss will start to work efficiently for you. In the workplace, many bosses think that their time is important, and their time is not important, or even can be wasted. It seems that they are using tap water in their homes. For example, some bosses like to hold meetings, so they don't have to worry about meeting meetings. If you leave the meeting with him just a few hours later, your time will be wasted, which is generally cheaper than tap water. At this time, have you been working for you? Have you worked efficiently? The answer is self-explanatory. What should I do? And the boss stated in advance: I only have 10 minutes. In this case, you are actually assigned a value for your time. Your boss will have to consider your situation and measure your time and time together. Maybe you will have further communication on time and location, but at least he will be more efficient in explaining things and explaining the work. Look, in a simple sentence, your time is no longer a plaything in the palm of your boss. He must exchange his time.   3. If you say this, you will devote yourself to your work. Of course, it is the most efficient state. After reading the second paragraph, some friends say "untrusted ". You think, who dares to say to your boss: I only have 10 minutes. Okay, you should say 20 minutes to your boss. In fact, there is no need to scare yourself so much as your boss is afraid of anything. If your boss asks you this question, you will say, "I didn't want to say this, it was taught by Sun ." If your boss is still angry: "Which old grandson ?" You just said, "It's the author of" The Curse of the Chinese people ". It's very good. If you don't believe it, you can buy one ." Of course, this article says "I only have ten minutes", and it doesn't have to be ten minutes, that is, taking that meaning and the scene -- making others feel that the time is very limited and the opportunity is very rare, resulting in a sense of anxiety and performance. This results in a high-quality time field around the speaker. However, the best quality time field cannot be created by others, but should be self-built and self-reliant. It is said that there is a company that has a project that is delayed and will expire in three days after the contract period. The hope of the Dawn has not yet been seen. The boss was in a hurry and made a wish: If you can finish it on schedule, ask the project team to spend a week on vacation in Hawaii. As a result, the project was successfully completed within three days. What is this story about? When you really feel that you have a limited time, you will be able to launch a super hero. This is the performance of this project team. In fact, they are saying this to themselves: I only have three days !...... Otherwise, you will not be able to go to Hawaii. Isn't that true? People are often surprised and excited about jobs' achievements: Look at jobs and how they do it! The so-called "let's say that the hero is stunned ". Steve Jobs said:SetEvery dayAre regardedThe last day has been here. You see, this clearly implies yourself that you don't have much time-only one day ). So what is the result of such self-time suggestion? Jobs said: You will find that everything is under control one day. So it turns out!   ※Remember: it is not enough to become the master of "time", but also to make it work efficiently for you! The more efficient it is, the more valuable you are!
