A Matter of Time時間問題

Instead of saying "I don't have time" try saying "it's not a priority" and see how that feels. Often that's a perfectly adequate explanation. I have time to iron my sheets, I just don't want to. But other things are harder. Try it:
與其說“我沒有時間”不如試著說“這事不緊急”，看看效果有什么不同。通常情況下，這個一個理由充分的借口。我有時間熨床單，但我就是懶得去做。那要是換成別的事情就沒有說的這么輕巧了，試試下面的說法。
"I'm not going to edit your resume, sweetie, because it's not a priority."
“親愛的，我不會去幫你改簡歷的，因為這不是什么要緊的事情。”
"I don't go to the doctor because my health is not a priority."
“我不會去看醫(yī)生的，因為我的健康不是什么要緊的事情。”
If these phrases don't sit well, that's the point. Changing our language reminds us that time is a choice. If we don't like how we're spending an hour, we can choose differently.
這些說法是不是聽起來很怪，對，這就是重點。換個不同的表達方式，讓我們意識到時間是一種選擇。如何度過某個小時，根據(jù)我們的喜惡，我們的選擇會大不相同。
