5條建議讓你擁有高效的早晨

Mornings on a college campus are ... let's say .. significantly slower paced than a typical afternoon on campus. And while many students sleep in or otherwise let their days get off to a slow start, you can capitalize on the unusually un-busy campus in ways that prove extremely beneficial. So just how can you utilize mornings in college in ways that are productive but also enjoyable?

大學校園的早晨······這麼說吧，它明顯比午後時光的節奏更慢。然而許多同學或是沉入夢鄉，或是懶洋洋地地度過一整天，你可以好好利用沒有平時那麼擁擠的校園，事實證明它將會對你十分有益。所以，怎樣才能利用好校園的早晨，使其給你帶來收穫和歡樂呢？

1. Sign up for a class on a topic you really love. Getting up for an 8:00 a.m.

報名參加一個你喜歡的培訓班。早上八點就可以起牀。

class that you aren't excited about but have to take can be challenging. Getting up for a 9:00 a.m. class that you really love, however, can be a great way to start the day. Treat yourself to some tea or coffee and settle in two or three mornings a week to learn about something you have a passion for.

參加你不感興趣卻又不得不去的培訓班確實是一件充滿挑戰的事。但是，起牀參加一個你喜歡的九點鐘的培訓班則是開啓新一天超棒的方式。你可以喝點咖啡或茶，每週去兩三次，學習一些你感興趣的知識。

If you aren't sure which class to pick, ask around for something taught by a great professor, in an engaging way, on an interesting topic, and without a burdensome homework or reading load.

如果你不確定該參加什麼培訓班，可以打聽一下優秀的老師都開了什麼課，有哪些課上課方式吸引人、主題有趣、或是沒有沉重的課業或閱讀負擔。

2. Get some exercise. The campus gym is likely packed in the afternoons and evenings. But in the mornings, you might have better luck getting some time on your favorite machine or in your favorite yoga class. Similarly, going for an early (or even semi-early) morning run or walk outside can be invigorating and a great way to see and interact with your campus in a new way. After all, when's the last time you were able to move around campus freely without really seeing anyone else around? Additionally, starting your morning off with a work-out can make you feel pretty dang awesome for the rest of the day.

鍛鍊。學校的體育館在下午或晚上 可能就已經關閉了。但在早上，你可能會幸運地用上你最喜歡的運動器材，或是參加最喜歡的瑜伽課。同樣地，早起（或者稍微晚點）去外面跑步或散步會使你精力充沛，而且也是你暢遊校園的一個充滿新意的好方法。畢竟，你可以自由地暢遊校園，而且無需留意周邊的人的機會不多。除此之外，晨練可以使你在一天其他的時間裏都充滿活力。

3. Use the quiet for some quality study/homework time. It can be hard to study and read -- and really focus on doing so -- when the campus is at its peak hustle and bustle. What takes you 2 or 3 hours to get through when you're fighting distraction might only take you 1 or 2 hours to do when you're really able to focus, calmly, in the quiet.

利用這段安靜的時間來學習或做功課。當校園最喧鬧的時候，要想學習、閱讀和集中注意力是非常困難的。在你與分心作鬥爭時，可能會花上2-3小時來完成任務。但如果你在一個安靜的環境集中注意力的話，可能只需要1-2小時。

Head to a coffee shop, common area, or other place where you can enjoy the campus and get some serious studying done.

你可以去咖啡廳、公共場所或其他能夠使你欣賞校園並認真學習的地方。

4. Get your work hours out of the way. While students might not be up and running first thing in the morning, many campus departments are. If you have a campus job, see if you can work in the morning hours. You're likely to not be as busy as, say, if you were to work during the afternoon -- which can mean you have a chance to multitask productively. (And who wouldn't want to be paid for being at work while also getting some reading done during the slow periods?)

起來工作。雖然許多學生不會一早起來去做某件事，但學校許多部門可不是這樣。如果你在做校園兼職，看看自己能不能在早上工作。你工作起來可能不會像中午那麼忙，這樣你就可以做很多事情了。（誰不想一邊得到工作，一邊還能在人少的時候做做閱讀呢？）

5. Sleep! Never underestimate harmful effects of sleep deprivation. Even if you have ambitious goals for all the things you want to get done during the morning hours on campus, getting enough rest should rank pretty high on your priority list. Let yourself sleep in every once in a while (without missing class, of course), as being rested can make you more productive throughout the day. Even your brain needs a break every once in a while!

休息!絕對不要小看缺乏睡眠的危害。即使你早上有很多事情要在學校完成，也要把獲得充足的睡眠放在第一位。每隔一段時間就要休息（當然，不能缺勤），因爲休息可以在一天裏做事更有效率。即使是你的大腦，也需要隔段時間就休息一下。
