After a few months of Summer Fridays or hitting the blacktop for weekend road trips, it can be tough to reel your brain back from the beach into office mode, so now's a great time to invest some energy in tightening up your work skills. These nine activities will improve your office aptitude while adding a fun and fulfilling twist to your daily routine.
在经历了连续几个月的夏日周五狂欢或者是周末逛街压马路之后,要把大脑从阳光沙滩拽回办公室模式确实很困难,所以现在是强化你的工作能力的绝佳时间。以下九种活动可以在日常生活中通过好玩的方式提高你的工作能力。
Do a Puzzle
做题
Even your train commute can be a setting for work skills improvement. Whip out the daily crossword puzzle, carry a sudoku book in your bag, or tap the word puzzle app of your choice and flex that powerful muscle in your head. Puzzles can broaden your vocabulary as well as your ability to problem solve by forcing you to think differently about the task at hand.
甚至在你上下班的地铁上也可以提高你的工作能力。每天解决一个填字游戏,在包里带本数独书,或者动脑子玩一些填字游戏的app。这些游戏在扩大你的词汇量的同时,通过逼你从多个角度思考问题来增强你解决问题的能力。
Enroll in a Public Speaking Class
参加一场公开演讲课程
For some people, standing before a room full of people — or even three — can be more petrifying than skydiving or swimming with sharks. Begin to overcome those fears by joining a public speaking class or club where you'll learn to orate like a politician, improve your overall communication skills, and network with other like-minded folks.
对有些人来说,站在满屋子的人面前——甚至只有三个人面前——都要比跳伞或与鲨鱼共舞更紧张。现在就开始克服这种恐惧吧,你可以参加一个公开的演讲课程,或者加入一个可以学着像政治家一样演讲的俱乐部,提高你的沟通能力,并和那些与你有同样问题的朋友做做交流。
Play a Team Sport
参加一项团队运动
Get involved in your local rec league or simply gather some friends together for a regular soccer afternoon at the park. Not only will you feel the physical and emotional benefits of exercise, playing a team sport will help you hone your teamwork and leadership skills while thinking on your feet.
加入你当地的业余联赛,或者只是和几个朋友一起在公园度过一个属于足球的午后。这样做不但会让你感受到运动带来的身体和心理上的好处,同时,参加团队运动也会帮助你磨砺你的团队合作能力和领导能力。
Hang Out With the Kids
和孩子们出去玩
When your sister asks you to babysit her brood, don't turn her down! Playtime not only gives your inner child the green light to imagine, but it also allows you to observe how kids work through disagreements in order to cooperate . . . without the burden of office politics.
如果你姐姐要求你照看她的几个孩子,不要让她失望哦!和孩子一起玩耍不但能唤起你的童心,还能让你观察孩子们是如何解决争端一起合作的……远离办公室争斗的压力。
Clubs and Organizations
参加俱乐部和组织
Joining clubs and organizations that align with your hobbies or stage of life can be a great way to meet new people and network over common interests. You can volunteer to head up a committee to gain valuable leadership and project planning…
加入那些和你的兴趣和人生阶段相符的俱乐部和组织会是认识新朋友和兴味相投的人的好渠道。你可以自告奋勇领导一个委员会,从而获得可贵的领导能力和计划项目的能力。
Take an Improv Acting Class
参加即兴表演课程
Enrolling in an improv acting class could lead to other thespian career paths, but it can also teach you to think on your feet and anticipate your co-worker's next move through unscripted role play.
报名一个即兴表演课程可能会为你打开另一条戏剧性的职业发展轨道,同时通过没有剧本的角色扮演,还能教会你自己思考并预测同伴的下一个举动。
Volunteer
志愿者
Whether you donate your time to an organization or another person in need, volunteering has to be one of the most personally rewarding activities in which one can participate. It's also another great venue for learning teamwork and leadership skills, improving communication, and even picking up new abilities that could be beneficial in your office…
不管你是参加一个组织还是帮助其他有困难的人,做志愿者始终是一个人能参加的最能实现自我的一个活动。它还是一个学习团队合作和领导能力、提高沟通能力,甚至学到在事业上有用的新知识的好方式。
Attend a Networking Social
参加社交活动
Many professional organizations host socials, giving people from different companies a chance to rub elbows over cocktails and ice breaking activities. Sign up for a few and master the art of small talk!
许多专业的组织都会组织社交活动,让来自不同公司的人有一个机会通过破冰活动来认识其他人。你可以报名参加一些这样的活动,学会交谈的技巧。
Yoga and Meditation
瑜伽与沉思
Great for the body and soul, yoga and meditation can improve your posture, poise, and confidence. They also allow you some private time to mull over prickly office encounters or think through tricky work dilemmas.
一边做瑜伽一边思考人生对身体和灵魂都非常好,它能改善你的体型、平衡和自信心。也能给你创造私人时间来仔细思考办公室里的遭遇和工作上的那些难题。
