职场英语：职场精英在周末做的10件事

1. Make time for family and friends. This is especially important for those who don’t spend much time with their loved ones during the week.
1.为家人和朋友腾点时间。对于那些一周都没有太多时间与亲人相处的人来说，周末和家人在一起特别重要。
2. Exercise. Everyone needs to do it, and if you can’t work out 4 to 5 days during the workweek, you need to be active on weekends to make up for some of that time. It’s the perfect opportunity to clear you mind and create fresh ideas.
2. 运动。每个人都要做到这一点，如果你不能在工作日内中锻炼，你需要在周末活跃些来弥补。这是提神醒脑、创造新想法的绝好机会。
3. Pursue a passion. There’s a creative director of a greeting card company who went back to school to pursue an MFA because of her love of art.Pursuing this passion turned into a love of poetry that she now writes on weekends. Successful people make time for what is important or fun,and they make space for activities that add to their life balance.
3. 有所追求。有一个贺卡公司的创意总监，出于对艺术的热爱，重回学校攻读美术硕士。如今这种追求让她爱上了诗歌，她现在会在周末搞些创作。成功的人会腾出时间给重要或有趣的事，以及那些可以平衡工作与生活的事。
4. Vacation. Getting away for the weekend provides a great respite from the grind of an intense week at work.
4. 度假。周末外出度假可以给一周紧张的工作提供很好的喘息时间。
5. Avoid chores. Every weekend has a few have-to-dos, but you want these to take the minimum amount of time possible. Create a small window for chores and errands, and then banish them from your mind the rest of the time.
5. 避免杂事。每个周末都有几件待办事项，但你希望这些事尽可能占用最少的时间。给家务和杂事创建个小窗口，然后剩下的时间把他们从脑海中驱逐。
6. Plan. Planning makes people more effective, and doing it before the week starts means you can hit Monday ready to go, and means you’ll give clear directions to the people who work for you, so they will be ready to go, too.
6. 做计划。规划使人做事更高效，在新的一周开始前做好计划意味着你能在星期一就蓄势待发，也意味着你将给员工明确的指示，这样他们也会有所准备。
7. Gardening/crafts/games/sports/cooking/cultural activities. This is especially important for those cooped up in an office all week. Bridge lessons and groups can also sharpen the mind and often create relationships among highly competitive smart professionals.Theatre, opera and sporting events can also enrich one’s spirit.

8. Network. Networking isn’t an event for a successful person, it’s a lifestyle. Wherever they go and whatever they do, they manage to connect with new people.
8. 人际网络。人际网络对成功人士来说不是一件事，而是一种生活方式。无论在何处、在做什么，他们都乐于和陌生人接触。
