怎样尽可能做更多的事，这一直是个难解之谜。除了更努力、工作更长时间以外，还有三个办法解决这个问题：（1）通过优先排序或直接拒绝来减少工作量；（2）授权给合适的人去做；（3）提高工作效率。 有些人花了大量时间和精力却收效甚微，而另一些人却在同样时间里做了很多事。导致差别的，主要在于创造力、品性和智慧。创造力较强的人会发明出更高效的新方法（例如找能力强的人来做，采用好的技术或好的设计）。品性较好的人更善于应对所遇到的挑战和需求。更有智慧的人则能够保持平和的心态，站到更高的层次上审视自己以及所面临的挑战，合理地进行优先排序，做出符合现实的设计和理性的选择。 How to do more than we think we can is a puzzle we all struggle with. Other than working harder for longer hours, there are three ways to fix the problem: 1) having fewer things to do by prioritizing and saying no, 2) finding the right people to delegate to, and 3) improving your productivity.Some people spend a lot of time and effort accomplishing very little while others do a lot in the same amount of time. What differentiates people who can do a lot from those who can't is creativity, character, and wisdom. Those with more creativity invent ways to do things more effectively (for instance by finding good people, good technologies, and/or good designs). Those with more character are better able to wrestle with their challenges and demands. And those with more wisdom can maintain their equanimity by going to the higher level and looking down on themselves and their challenges to properly prioritize, realistically design, and make sensible choices.
