通过写生产力文章，我学到了什么
What I Learned About Productivity by Writing About Productivity
导读
彭博社作者在长期采访高成就者的过程中，反思了“效率”这个话题：真正有用的往往是极简的方法，而不是复杂的体系。值得写作者读，是因为它示范了如何把方法论写成有个人经验的文章，也提醒我们：写建议类文章时，别掉进套路化的软文腔里。
可以直接用的写作要点
- 01
写方法论文章时，先交代自己的处境和局限，读者才会相信你后面的建议。
- 02
与其罗列一整套体系，不如只讲一个在真实场景里验证过、可复用的简单方法。
- 03
用具体场景（两个孩子在家、夜里睡不好）代替抽象形容词，读者才能代入。
- 04
警惕把方法写成工具推销：少谈工具和流程，多谈取舍和放弃什么。

效率建议必须放在真实处境里检验，少而专注加上自我宽容才可行。
我正处于对效率又爱又恨的阶段：有生意、有工作、有两个小孩，还有一件让一切都失控的全球大事。每次读这类文章，我都想说：你带着两个在家制造熵的孩子试试日历封锁法，再说说你的意志力表现如何。但我还是忍不住点开，希望有一天能破解焦虑父母的效率之谜。我现在的答案是：想做的事越少，做成的事越多，超级聚焦是唯一有效的办法；以及在低效的日子里（几乎每天）对自己好一点。

I'm at a stage in my life where I have a true love/hate relationship with productivity. I have a business, a job, two young children and there's this thing going on in the world that makes everything kind of strange and our of our control. Every time I read an article like this one, and this one isn't particularly good, if I may add, I feel like saying, yes, right, you go ahead and try that calendar blocking thing with two children at home generating an almost infinite amount of entropy in all four dimensions. And do tell me how that willpower thing is working out for you, that thing about just cranking on with the most important goals every day, when your nights are most unreliable, and you're just generally exhausted all the time. But I keep clicking those links anyway, secretly hoping that one day, I'll crack the mystery of productivity for stressed-out parents... But since we're on the topic, I'll share what I think is the secret now: the less you try to accomplish, the more you'll accomplish. Super-laser-focus is the only thing that works for me. That, and being kind to myself when I have unproductive days, which is almost every day.
工具越简单越能长期坚持，复杂系统经不起一次意外。
我发现，效率系统越复杂，一旦出点岔子，我就越不愿回去用它。简单的方法才能活得久。现在我和妻子共用一个 Google Doc，它远不完美，但一直能用：手机和电脑都能打开，书签方便，界面从不变。

I keep finding that the more complicated the setup I use for productivity, the less I go back to it whenever there is a hiccup. Simple methods survive long term. Currently my wife and I use a shared google doc, and while it is far from perfect, it ends up working well for us since it works on our phones and computers, is easy to bookmark, and the interface never changes.
警惕被商业化的方法论噪音，真正有效的往往是朴素的老常识。
“效率”已经被彻底产品化，围绕子弹笔记、清单、卡片盒、间隔重复、番茄钟、斯多葛主义等方法论都长出了付费工具。结果是这些工具的卖家写出一大片为搜索引擎优化的垃圾博客，信噪比低到没法用。我三十多岁才明白，解决效率焦虑的办法和我父母那代不用电脑的人的老智慧差不多：吃好睡好、定期离开屏幕、去户外、每天开始时回顾目标、完美很少是必要的。

"Productivity" has been fully productized to the extent that there are paid tools built around methodologies like bullet journaling, lists, zettelkasten, spaced repetition, pomodoro timers, stoicism etc. The end result of which is an ocean of SEO blogspam written by the the purveyors of such tools, reducing the signal-to-noise ratio the well below the threshold of usability. I find that in my 30s, the solution for productivity woes is much the same as the ancient wisdom of my parents' computer-free generation: (i) ensure decent nutrition and sleep (ii) step away from the screens periodically (iii) spend time outdoors (iv) review your goals at the start of each day (v) perfection is rarely necessary
果断拒绝不重要的选项，比任何技巧都更有效。
以我的经验，最有用也最简单的效率建议，几乎适用于任何情境：“如果不是明确的‘是’，那就是‘不’。”其他我看到的都是噪音。

IME the single greatest yes simplest productivity tip that can be applied in almost any situation or context: "If it's not a definite yes, then it's a no." Everything else I've found is noise.

不要想好再写，要写来思考
Don’t think to write, write to think
这篇短文主张不要把写作当成思考完成后的记录，而要把写作本身当作思考的工具：动笔的过程会逼出想不清楚的地方。

这是一篇讲“写作即思考”的博客：作者认为写作不是把想好的东西誊写出来，而是借助写作本身把想法想清楚，因此写作者应当建立信心、敢于先写烂稿。

How to think in writing
这篇文章讨论的是「用写作来思考」：作者认为写作不只是把想清楚的东西表达出来，更是想清楚本身的工具——文字落在纸上，你才有机会看见自己思路里的跳跃、含混和漏洞。

Write to Escape Your Default Setting
文章的核心主张就写在标题里：写作是帮你逃离「默认设置」的手段——日常的思维和表达都有惯性默认的默认模式，而落笔能逼你跳出来，重新看清自己到底在想什么、要说什么。
