人人都该学习的12种生活技能（佳作欣赏） There are a lot of skills you don’t need. You can be happy and successful without knowing how to rebuild a car’s engine, program a web application, or replace drywall. Sure, these are useful skills to have, but they aren’t absolutely necessary. 很多技能其实没必要去掌握。不知道如何修理汽车发动机，不会编写网页应用程序或更换石膏板，你可能照样很快乐。当然，这些技能虽不是必不可少，但的确很实用。There are other skills, however, that can’t be avoided – skills that tie into various aspects of everyday life, that are not only useful, but totally indispensable. For instance, you can’t get far in today’s world without being able to read or write. And today the ability use a computer proficiently is simply assumed.可是，你必须学会另外一些技能——一些与我们日常生活息息相关的技能。它们不仅有用，而且不可或缺。例如：读写技能，如果不能读写，身处当今世界的你，势必四处碰壁。现在，精通电脑也被看作当然之事。In this article we’re going to skip the super basic skills like reading, driving, and using a computer, and discuss twelve slightly more advanced skills that are woefully under-taught, and universally applicable. Let’s take a look…这里，我们不打算讨论读、写、驾驶和操作电脑等超基本技能，而是讨论12个略微高级一些的技能。不幸地是，没人教你这些技能，而它们却具有普遍适用性。让我们来看看吧……1. Prioritizing and time management.目标优选和时间管理If success depends on effective action, effective action depends on the ability to focus your attention where it is needed most, when it is needed most. This is the ability to separate the important from the unimportant, which is a much needed skill in all walks of life, especially where there are ever increasing opportunities and distractions.如果成功取决于有效行动，那么有效行动取决于在最需要的地方和最需要的时候集中精力的能力。这是区分主次的能力，无论什么行业都非常需要的技能，尤其在众多机会与干扰面前。2. Keeping a clean, organized space. 保持空间清洁有序Successful people have systems in place to help them find what they need when they need it – they can quickly locate the information required to support their activities. When you’re disorganized, that extra time spent looking for a phone number, email address or a certain file forces you to drop your focus. Once it’s gone, it takes a while to get it back – and that’s where the real time is wasted.
