Dust off daily routines

重整日常事务

Is your daily routine cluttered?

你的日常事务是否琐碎繁杂?

That is, is there an easier way to do something in your daily routine or is there actual physical clutter that hinders or blocks you from actually physically doing something?

也就是说,能否用更轻松的方式来处理你的日常事务?抑或存在实际性障碍干扰你踏实地做好事情?

Maybe there’s a simpler or easier way to get to work instead of your normal route? Could you clean up that pile of junk at the foot of your bed that you always trip over on your way to the dresser or closet?

除了惯常的做事方式,或许还有更简便的办法呢?当你去开衣橱时,床脚那堆杂物总是绊到你,或许现在可以清理掉?

Take a minute or two to think about what tiny changes you could make in your daily routine to make things a little bit easier for yourself.

花点时间想想自己能在日常事务中做出怎样的改变,以便让生活更加简便容易。
