你必须知道的定律1. The 80/20 rule.二八定律This is one of the best ways to make better use of your time. The 80/20 rule – also known as The Pareto Principle – basically says that 80 percent of the value you will receive will come from 20 percent of your activities.掌握这条法则就能够合理优化地利用时间。二八定律（又称帕累托法则）简言之，就是80%的收获源于20%的付出。So a lot of what you do is probably not as useful or even necessary to do as you may think.所以，你所做的未必有你想象的那么重要You can just drop – or vastly decrease the time you spend on – a whole bunch of things.很多事情根本不必去做，或是只用一点点时间就够了。And if you do that you will have more time and energy to spend on those things that really brings your value, happiness, fulfilment and so on.如果你能遵循二八定律，就会有更多气力投入到那些能带来幸福感与成就感的有意义的事情上。2. Parkinsons Law. 帕金森定律You can do things quicker than you think. This law says that a task will expand in time and seeming complexity depending on the time you set aside for it. For instance, if you say to yourself that youll come up with a solution within a week then the problem will seem to grow more difficult and youll spend more and more time trying to come up with a solution.你的做事速度可以比你想象的更快。帕金森定律表述的是：为完成某件事预定的时间越长，所需的时间就越长，让人觉得难度也在增加 。打个比方，你告诫自己要在一周内找到解决某事，可这件事到时就变得越来越复杂，结果让你花去了越来越多的时间 。So focus your time on finding solutions. Then just give yourself an hour (instead of the whole day) or the day (instead of the whole week) to solve the problem. This will force your mind to focus on solutions and action.故此我们应集中精力去解决问题。如果完成目的只需一小时，就不要用一天时间，如果只需一天，就不要用一周时间，以此强迫自己专注于行动。The result may not be exactly as perfect as if you had spent a week on the task, but as mentioned in the previous point, 80 percent of the value will come from 20 percent of the activities anyway. Or you may wind up with a better result because you havent overcomplicated or overpolished things. This will help you to get things done faster, to improve your ability to focus and give you more free time where you can totally focus on whats in front of you instead of h
