職場的“信息超載綜合征”
開了一上午的會，聽了一堆數(shù)據(jù)、報告之后，你會不會覺得頭痛？有時覺得腦子都不轉(zhuǎn)了？告訴你，這可能是“信息超載綜合征”哦。
Have you ever experienced the phenomenon known as information overload syndrome? If you have sat down for an academic lecture for three hours straight or have been stuck in a meeting full of facts, figures and who knows what - then yes - you probably have experienced this phenomenon. You may have a headache, and find it difficult to concentrate on something.
你有沒有經(jīng)歷過一種叫做“信息超載綜合征”的狀況？如果你曾經(jīng)連續(xù)三個小時聽一場學(xué)術(shù)講座或者出席過一個充斥著事實案例、數(shù)字以及其他各種信息的會議，那么，你可能經(jīng)歷過這種狀況。你可能會出現(xiàn)頭痛，以及注意力不集中的癥狀。
Information overload syndrome (IOS) is a condition affecting business people too. It is the result of trying to manage huge amount of non-stop information that comes in form of emails, attachments, text messages, thought-starters and FYIs. As a result, sufferers of IOS will find accomplishing the simplest of everyday tasks nearly impossible.
信息超載綜合征也影響著商務(wù)人士。大量郵件、附件、短信、新靈感以及僅供參考的信息使他們飽受信息超載綜合征困擾，以至于連日常最簡單的工作都無法完成。
So if you want to learn how to overcome information overload syndrome, here's how!
如果你想學(xué)著克服信息超載綜合征，以下是一些可行的做法。
Step 1: Take a break.
第一步：休息一下。
You got to know when to stop. Stop receiving information when you feel a headache coming and when you can't understand what's being said anymore.
你得知道什么時候需要停下來。感覺頭痛就要襲來或者已經(jīng)無法領(lǐng)會聽到的話語時，就停止接收信息。
Step 2: Prioritize.
第二步：優(yōu)先排序。
Information overload syndrome can also result from your own last-minute decisions. It might be second nature to you; but if you want to avoid unnecessary headaches and stress, avoid cramming every single time there's a test or a presentation due.
你自己最后一刻的決定也會導(dǎo)致信息超載綜合征。最后一刻做決定可能是你的第二本性，但是，如果你想避免不必要的頭痛和壓力，就不要在每次快考試或要做演示時才抱佛腳。
Learn to prepare early and prioritize. Do what needs to be done first instead of choking your mind with all sorts of unrelated information when you realize that there's still so much to learn and so little time.
要學(xué)會提早準(zhǔn)備并且優(yōu)先排序。要做的事情很多而時間又很少的時候，就要先做那些需要最先完成的事情，而不是滿腦子堆滿那些毫無關(guān)聯(lián)的信息。
