　Does willpower work?

　　意志力真的有用么?

　　The first thing to come to terms with is that our willpower is simply not enough. In fact, some studies suggest that willpower is an exhaustible source that can be entirely used up. This is a concept known as the ego depletion. So instead of convincing yourself to simply try harder, a more methodical approach is suggested

　　首要咱们得清晰一点：人的意志力是有限的。事实上一些研讨标明，意志力是一项非再生能源并且会被彻底用光，这个概念被称作自我损耗。所以与其天天强逼自个要尽力，不如尝试一下更系统科学的方法。

　　Three steps to go

　　进步生产力三步走

　　The first step: Get started! It may seem obvious but studies have shown starting a project to be the biggest barrier to productivity. Before starting our brain visualizes the hardest parts to come, and instead tries to simulate real work by focusing on small mindless tasks. Luckily, there's a construct of the mind known as the Zeigernik Erffect, which compels humans to finish a task that they've already started. The Zeigernik Effect shows that when we don't finish a task, we experience discomfort and intrusive thoughts about it. So get started.

　　第一步：立即举动!这听起来好像很明显，但研讨标明，开端着手一件事是进步生产力的最大妨碍。在咱们开端之前大脑会可视化其间最可贵有些，然后让咱们去做一些轻松的作业而不是企图模仿实在的作业。走运的是，咱们的大脑有一个被称为蔡格尼克效应的构造，它会迫使大家去完结现已开端了的作业。 蔡格尼克效应标明，当咱们没有完结任务时，咱们就会阅历不舒服和被搅扰的主意，所以赶忙举动。

　　Now what about time management?
