Your lunch hour is your chance to get refocused, reenergized, and refueled for the rest of your day. Successful people treat it like the half-time show at a football game — an opportunity to regroup and consider how they’re going to play out the rest of their day。
午餐時(shí)間是你重新集中注意力，重獲精力，再次充電的休息時(shí)間。成功人士把午餐時(shí)間當(dāng)成是足球比賽的中場(chǎng)休息—一次可以重整旗鼓的機(jī)會(huì)，他們會(huì)利用這段時(shí)間思考接下來(lái)要怎么做。
The most successful people don’t spend their lunch hour at their desk. They use that time to do things like meet new people, exercise, and read。
最成功的人不會(huì)把午餐的時(shí)間花費(fèi)在自己的辦公桌前。他們會(huì)利用這段時(shí)間做其他的事情，例如，閱讀，做鍛煉，見不同的人。
Here are 10 things successful people do during their lunch hours:
下面為大家介紹成功人士在他們的午餐時(shí)間會(huì)做的10件事：
1. They plan their day with lunch in mind. They never schedule important meetings or conference calls right at lunchtime, and they typically block off at least 10 minutes of free time after lunch to reassess their goals for the day and shift priorities around, Kerr says。
1. 他們會(huì)利用午餐時(shí)間思考一天的計(jì)劃。他們從來(lái)不會(huì)在午餐時(shí)間安排重要的會(huì)面或者會(huì)議。吃完午飯后，他們通常會(huì)單獨(dú)呆上至少10分鐘，重新審視一天的目標(biāo)，調(diào)整工作重點(diǎn)。
2. They network. Try and set a goal to have lunch with a different person in your office or network at least once a week. You are guaranteed to learn something new about your organization or industry, and may even make some new mentors and friends in the process。
2. 他們會(huì)參與社交。試著確定一個(gè)目標(biāo)，在午餐的時(shí)候，與不同的人在辦公室就餐，或者每周至少一次進(jìn)行此類社交活動(dòng)。你會(huì)從中了解到公司或行業(yè)最新的動(dòng)態(tài)，而且在這個(gè)過(guò)程中你還可能結(jié)識(shí)新的良師益友。
3. They get organized. Take advantage of this short break from work by making a to-do list for your personal life — or even to cross a few items off that list. Feeling like things are in control and organized in your life outside of work will free up mental energy and reduce stress levels to perform better professionally。
3. 他們會(huì)制定計(jì)劃。“利用這段短暫的休息時(shí)間為自己的私人生活制定一個(gè)計(jì)劃，或者將計(jì)劃單上一些事項(xiàng)去掉。這樣會(huì)讓人感覺(jué)事情是可控的，自己工作以外的生活也是很有計(jì)劃的。這樣人的精神得到放松，壓力減輕，工作起來(lái)也得心應(yīng)手。
4. They take the time to eat. They eat healthy, and eat mindfully. Not being mindful leads to poor dietary choices such as eating too fast or eating junk food, which not only affects your health in the long run, buts also affects your stress level and ability to focus in the afternoon。
4. 他們會(huì)花時(shí)間在飲食上。吃飯的時(shí)候，成功人士會(huì)注重飲食的健康，也愿意為此花費(fèi)心思。不注意飲食習(xí)慣，比如吃飯過(guò)快，或食用垃圾食品，會(huì)長(zhǎng)期影響你的身體健康，也會(huì)讓自己產(chǎn)生壓力，影響下午工作的注意力。
5. They reflect on their morning. Lunch is the ideal time to evaluate the progress you’ve made. If you have had a difficult morning, then remind yourself that you can hit the reset button over lunch and head into the afternoon with a positive attitude。
5. 他們會(huì)對(duì)早上進(jìn)行反思。午餐時(shí)間非常有利于評(píng)價(jià)自己所取得的進(jìn)步。如果早上過(guò)的不太順利，午餐的時(shí)候提醒自己要按下重置鍵了，以積極的態(tài)度應(yīng)對(duì)下午的工作。
6. They read. Successful people don’t spend their lunch hour reading emails and reports. They catch up on newspapers, blogs, and books。
6. 他們會(huì)讀書。成功人士不會(huì)在午餐的時(shí)間處理電郵和報(bào)告。他們會(huì)抓緊時(shí)間讀報(bào)紙、博客和書。
7. They accomplish personal tasks. Successful people might run errands during their lunch hour, which they would not otherwise be able to take care of during the day. They also use this time to make personal calls, schedule appointments, write thank you notes, and achieve any other tasks from their personal to-do list。
7. 他們會(huì)完成私人事情。成功人士會(huì)在午餐的時(shí)間處理自己的雜事，這些事他們可能無(wú)法在一天內(nèi)其他時(shí)間處理。他們還會(huì)利用這段時(shí)間來(lái)打一些私人電話，安排私人約會(huì)，寫感謝便條，或者完成在待辦事項(xiàng)上其他的一些事情。
8. They unplug and recharge. Use your lunch hour to recharge by shutting off electronics and enjoying some peace and quiet。
8. 他們會(huì)遠(yuǎn)離人群，重新充電。利用自己的午餐時(shí)間“充電”，關(guān)掉電子設(shè)備，享受一些平和安靜。
9. They spend time on career planning.During your lunch hour, take a few minutes to think about and write down what you want your professional future to look like, Kurow says. “Successful people rarely have time in the office to do this. Take a notebook, and find a place to journal your thoughts. ”
9. 他們會(huì)花時(shí)間進(jìn)行職業(yè)規(guī)劃。午餐時(shí)間，花幾分鐘思考并寫下自己的職業(yè)愿景。成功人士很少在辦公的時(shí)候花時(shí)間做這些事情。找出筆記本，找個(gè)地方記錄下自己的想法。
10. They brainstorm. Successful people use this time to dream of new concepts, ideas, and solutions that can be applied to their professional and/or personal lives。
10. 他們會(huì)進(jìn)行頭腦風(fēng)暴。成功人士會(huì)利用這段時(shí)間天馬行空想出新的概念，想法，以及方案。這些想法、概念和方案可以應(yīng)用到他們的職業(yè)或私人生活中去。
