阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
Warren Buffett is one of the richest people in the world. Mike flint was Buffett’s pilot for ten years. During a trip, Buffett said to Flint, “You must have dreams greater than flying me around to where I need to go.” The pilot said he did have bigger dreams. And then Buffett took him through a three-step process for prioritizing(优化), to decide which things are the most important and what ot start with.
First, Buffett asked Flint to write down a list of twenty-five career goals. Flint took some time and wrote them down. Second, Buffett asked Flint to do some soul-searching and circle the five highest-priority goals on the list. Again, Flint took some time, made his way through the list and eventually decided on his five most important goals.
At this point, Buffett asked, “but what about these other 20 things on your list you didn’t circle? What is your plan for completing those?” Flint replied confidently, “Well the five highest-priority goals are the most important but the other twehty come in at a close second. So I’ll work on those twenty as well as I’m getting through my five highest-priority goals.” To Flint’s surprise, Buffett said, “No. You’ve got it wrong. The third step is to take a good hard look at the 20 goals. You should avoid them at all costs. They eat away time and energy, taking your eye from the goals than matter more.”
It is a simple process but not always an easy one. We are in a world where there’s more competition for your focus(专注) than ever before. We have to guard it with our life. Without focus, without staying true to our priorities, we will not get done other things we try to fit in and get done what’s most important to ourselves.
Every behavior has a cost. But time and energy are limited. Successful people prioritize their most important goals and avoid things but take up time, energy and space that could be put toward better behavior or more important tasks.
Once you’ve picked a goal, work towards it while ignoring(忽视) the things that will compete fpr ypur attention.
