100 Blocks a Day
一天的100个时间方块
Most people sleep about seven or eight hours a night. That leaves 16 or 17 hours awake each day. Or about 1,000 minutes.
我们每天睡大概7-8个小时。醒着的时间有16-17个小时，1000多分钟。
Let’s think about those 1,000 minutes as 100 10-minute blocks. That’s what you wake up with every day.
我们把这1000分钟切割为100个方块，每个方块10分钟。这就是你一天的可用时间。
Throughout the day, you spend 10 minutes of your life on each block, until you eventually run out of blocks and it’s time to go to sleep.
每一天，你过完10分钟就用完一个方块。用完100个方块，就又到了睡觉时间。
It’s always good to step back and think about how we’re using those 100 blocks we get each day. How many of them are put towards making your future better, and how many of them are just there to be enjoyed? How many of them are spent with other people, and how many are for time by yourself? How many are used to create something, and how many are used to consume something? How many of the blocks are focused on your body, how many on your mind, and how many on neither one in particular? Which are your favorite blocks of the day, and which are your least favorite?
我们每天是如何运用这100个时间方块的呢，哪些是用来投资未来，哪些是用来享受，哪些是和被人度过的，哪些是用来自己独处，有多少时间用来输出创造，有多少时间用来刷手机。有多少方块是用来专注自己的身体，思想。哪些是你最喜欢的时间方块片段，哪些是你最不喜欢的？
Imagine these blocks laid out on a grid. What if you had to label each one with a purpose?
想象你的一天的时间方块是下面的表格，如何你要给每一个表格标记，你会写些什么呢？
You’d have to think about everything you might spend your time doing in the context of its worth in blocks. Cooking dinner requires three blocks, while ordering in requires zero—is cooking dinner worth three blocks to you? Is 10 minutes of meditation a day important enough to dedicate a block to it? Reading 20 minutes a night allows you to read 15 additional books a year—is that worth two blocks? If your favorite recreation is playing video games, you’d have to consider the value you place on fun before deciding how many blocks it warrants. Getting a drink with a friend after work takes up about 10 blocks. How often do you want to use 10 blocks for that purpose, and on which friends? Which blocks should be treated as non-negotiable in their labeled purpose and which should be more flexible? Which blocks should be left blank, with no assigned purpose at all?
做一项活动我们都可以把它换算成使用多少时间方块。比如煮晚饭需要消耗3个，但是点餐不需要消耗任何的时间方块。那么你觉得煮晚饭对你来说值得付出你的时间吗？每天10分钟的冥想，值得你一个拿出一个时间方块吗？每天晚上阅读20分钟，可以让你一年读完15本书，所以每天的这两个时间方块，你愿意付出吗？如果你最爱的活动是打电子游戏，你要了解做这件事的价值，这样会帮助你决定要花多少时间方块在游戏上面。下班后，和朋友小酌一杯，需要大概10个时间方块，那么你会和谁共度这段时间，多久一次呢。哪些时间方块是雷打不动，每天必做的呢？哪些是可以灵活调整的项目呢？哪些时间方块是留出来，完全空白，不填充任何目的的呢？
Now imagine a similar grid, but one where each block is labeled exactly how you spent it yesterday.
The question to ask is: How are the two grids different from each other, and why?
现在，再想象另一个相似的表格，但是是你如果度过前一天的表格
问题是：这两个表格有什么不同吗，为什么？
Tip: the above grid is printable if you click on it.
提示：上面的表格是可以保存打印的呀
