每天我都想要一部分完完全全属于自己的时间，刻意练习我已经践行很久了，我逼迫自己放弃一些浪费宝贵注意力的行为，比如不追剧不玩游戏，比如没事绝不用微信闲聊，比如陪女儿玩时不碰手机，但属于自己的时间即便得来如此宝贵，我还是没有做到专注，并且在专注的道路上越走越远，或许我那些看似认真努力的样子都缺少了专注二字，那真的是可耻的假（qi）装（shi）在（hen）努（sha）力（bi）。
前几日看了一篇乐静写的文章她精炼了时间管理的三大法宝：
1爱谁谁
2该干嘛干嘛
3关我屁事
多么通俗易懂。如此，我按照这三点梳理下自己的日常，想做到以上三点，首先要保证注意力，其次要保证单位时间内的效率。在新闻时事上在娱乐上在与己无关的小事上，我已将以上事项都切换为读书大概有半年的时间，我似乎已接近成功的转移了注意力，但其实我读的书太少了，又慢又缺乏记忆，一共四本书，《把时间当朋友》《高效能人士的七个习惯》《捕捉孩子的敏感期》《活着》直至现在我好像都忘了书的大部分内容，为什么忘的这么快，我曾经给自己找理由诸如什么一孕傻三年，一个人带孩子精力都在孩子身上太分心。其实我回忆自己读书的过程跟以上借口都无关，主要原因是专注度不够。譬如，边陪孩子边读书，孩子陪不好书更没看到心里。譬如，时不时看看手机再回头来看看书，一页书不知道被手机勾走几次魂儿。诸如此类，我一直觉得自己已经很好的利用时间了但却一直未认识到对单位时间的高效利用。那么如何让时间高效、高质量、高浓度，从改变自己的专注度做起。如此，让自我把控的时间真真正正的为自己高效所用，那努力就会是实实在在的。即便时间再吃紧再零碎，刻意练习，每天给自己一小时，完全的放空，不碰手机不摸电脑不看孩子，专注的让自己或写或说或读书。我想这样的行为持续下去定能成就我们生活和生命的意义。
恰好今天听清晨朗读会文章，也是在讲专注这个话题，于是把英文也粘过来。我觉得听过此文后，我不会在刷碗的时候再放英语听力了，因为实际情况是刷碗的时候我根本听不到听力并且我还游离于听力，这反而带给我一个坏习惯，就是在认真听听力的时候总是碰到听不懂的地方就卡壳就游离，所以，同一时间就投入百分百的专注做同一件事情。
Good morning!
今天的练习内容来自 Leo Babauta，文章的名字为：Single-minded Devotion to a Task。
这篇又是 Leo 在提醒我们要 focus。虽然有点老生常谈，但是我有时候真的需要被提醒。
前一段我发现我刷牙的时候在看手机。当然，这不是个很严重的问题，但是如果所有的事情都是这样的，会一直处于一种紧张的状态，而这不是我希望处于的状态。
So I think it’s worth trying to focus on thing at a time. 今天从刷牙开始。
Have fun!

Single-Minded Devotion to a Task
By Leo Babauta
I’m going to share a secret to productivity, happiness and mindfulness that you can practice right now, and every day:
Devote yourself single-mindedly to anything you do.
And by that, I mean anything. For example, you can single-mindedly focus on:
Writing
Washing a dish
Talking to someone
Reading an online article
Listening to a podcast
Eating a grape
Running
Most of us try to combine doing two or more things at once, by listening to a podcast while running. I’ve done this, and you can’t really enjoy either activity fully. You’re not really present with either. That’s not to say you should never combine activities, but to the extent that you decide to focus on one at a time, you’ll be more present with it, and more fully appreciate it.
Most of us are also very good at switching focus. I do this too, and what it means is that we’re not really devoting ourselves to anything. We’re saying that there is nothing worthy of our full attention. Nothing is sacred if we are constantly switching.
What if we made everything we do sacred?
What if we decide that if we’re going to spend precious moments of our life on something, we’re going to treat it with reverence, wonder and respect?
What if every time we ate something, we gave it our undivided attention? Every time we talk to someone, we treat their words as if they were their last words?
What if, every time we open a website, we have only that website open … and treat it as if it were a sacred activity?
What if, every time we do anything, we give it not only our full attention, but our full appreciation? We found gratitude and wonder and love in everything we did?
If we acted like this, every day, then our lives would be filled with mindfulness, gratitude, happiness.
When you are about to start doing something, pause to notice what you’re doing. Set an intention to be fully devoted, single-mindedly devoted, to this one thing. Then give it your everything, as if it were your last act.
