Deborah Brown-Volkman, a certified¹ professional coach, says, "What's great about the new year is that it's like a do-over. You've completed the last year, and now you can start all over again." 有专业认证的职业培训师Deborah Brown-Volkman说：“新年的好处就是可以从头再来；去年已经过完，现在你又能重新开始。”

你可曾意识到工作环境对你来说很重要？整洁有序的环境会帮你提高工作效率、让你更喜欢这份工作。

保持整洁有序的工作环境

"Clean your desk," she adds. "That's such a big thing in terms of helping³ folks focus and get clear." Brown-Volkman说：“把你的桌子整理干净。这是很重要的一点，能帮助人们集中注意力，保持头脑清晰。”

Brown-Volkman also believes professionals can change the way they work. "Stop answering emails one by one -- set up specific times during the day to address them. Also, if you're on a roll, don't answer the phone every time it rings, unless it's your boss. The constant interruptions will derail your focus and make you feel less efficient." 另外Brown-Volkman还认为职业人士们可以改变他们的工作方式。“不要一有电子邮件就回复——一天中安排几个时段集中处理；此外如果你非常忙的话，不要电话铃一响就接，除非是老板打来的。不停被打断会让你分心、感到效率低下。”(to be continued)
