Get ready for the four-day working week
Younger managers are much more open to the idea than their bosses and female leaders like it too. 

I will be discussing the four day working week from a UK prospective. Feel free to comment and let me know what you think about the four day week focusing on the benefits and negatives of the idea.

这些都是爱的表达

“喂，我是爸爸。闺女，你过得好吗？没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”
大部分的父母，尤其是与子女相隔千里的父母，跟子女打电话时的开场白好像总是“没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”难道父母真的是因为无聊、没事可做，才拨通了电话？

“没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”其实，这句话里的含义包括：“好长时间没见你了”“这周回家看看吧”“想你了”“我爱你”等等。
父母会对孩子说：“没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”
热恋中的情侣会说：“没什么事，就是想听听你的声音。”
好朋友会说：“没什么事，就是问问你周末有没有时间聚聚。”

“没什么，就是……”这句话好像没什么特别的含义，却又意义深刻。当说出这句话时，“没什么”其实意味着“有什么”。

学习重点——什么
1.这个计划没什么问题，可以发给客户了。
2.有什么不明白的地方，可以给我发邮件。
3.附近没有什么好吃的餐厅。
4.妈妈每次打电话时都会先说，没什么事，其实我知道她想我了。
5.我找你没什么特别的事，就是想请你帮我一个忙。

5 Steps to Business Habit Stacking

STEP 1
Identify 1-3 key habits you want to focus on developing that will have the biggest positive impact on your business. These should be habits that are relatively easy to implement but provide high value such as daily planning, delegating tasks or networking. Focus on habits that are specific, measurable actions you can take each day to make progress towards your goals.

STEP 2
Choose an existing daily habit you already have as an anchor. This could be making your bed, taking your vitamins or checking email. The anchor habit should be something quick and easy you already do daily. Picking an anchor you already do each morning or evening will help cue the new habits without adding extra effort.

STEP 3
Immediately follow your anchor habit with one of the key habits you identified. For example, if your anchor is checking email in the morning, follow it with taking 10 minutes to plan your day. Doing the new habit right after the anchor will help the cues become associated over time.

STEP 4
Repeat the key habit daily, right after your anchor habit, until it becomes a routine. It may take 21-30 days for a new habit to stick so be patient and consistent. Don't try to build multiple habits at once. Staying focused on one habit at a time will help it to form more successfully without overload.

STEP 5
Once the first key habit is a routine, add the second by stacking it after your anchor and initial habit. For example, your routine is now check email > plan your day > delegate one task. Continue stacking until all your key habits are locked in. Stacking new habits onto existing routines helps you develop multiple productive habits efficiently.
