   The holidays are here.

  假期已经来临。
  Many people are already off for the break. Others are still working.
  许多人都已经休息了。有的人还在工作。
  Regardless of your status, one thing is the same, there is still time to get things done before the year is over.
  忽略地位不计,有一件事是相同的,在这一年结束之前仍有时间将事情做完。
  Don’t let the end of your year go to waste.
  不要将年底的时间浪费。
  Start Something.
  开始做点什么。
  The year isn’t over just yet.
  这一年还没有完全过去。
  There is still over a week left before the New Year.
  在新的以年开始之前仍有一周多的时间。
  You could punt and wait until next year. Honestly, many people have already selected that option.
  在明年之前你还可以将工作推开,等。老实说,许多人已经选择了。
  Or you could do just one more thing. Or maybe a few things during the time that remains in the year.
  否则你还可以多做一两件事。或者也许在今年剩下的时间里还留着。
  ‘Don’t waste the end of your year, there’s still time to get things done.’
  ‘不要浪费年底的时间,这些时间还能做一些事情。’
  Here are 10 Things You Could Do Before The Year is Over:
  这里列出了年底你还能做完的10件事:
  Finish Something – Don’t leave undone work that will just create even more work upon your return. Close out those tasks before you unplug for the holidays.
  完成某些事情---不要把留着没做完的工作不做,因为那会在你回来上班的时候产生更多的工作。在放假之前把这些工作做完。
  Start Something – Don’t wait for the New Year to begin something new. Maybe it is a new goal or project, get a head start now.
  开始做事情--不要等到新的一年开始才去做一些事情。也许是一些新的目标,新的项目,现在就开始吧。
  Do Something You’ve Been Putting Off – What has been on your Someday-Maybe list? Chances are some things have been on that list for a long time. Pick one and do it before the year’s over.
  做一些你已经推后的事情---哪些事情已经在你某天的日程表里?也许有些事情已经在你的待办事项表中很长一段时间了。在今年结束之前挑一两件事做完。
  Do Something You Have Always Wanted to Do – While everyone else is busying bustling for the holidays, it’s the perfect time to do something you have always wanted to do. A great time to do something off the beaten path.
  做一些你总是想做的事情----当别人都在忙着过节的时候,就是去做你总想做的事情的最佳时间。一个做一些不寻常事情的绝佳时间。
  Plan a Goal – Don’t wait until the New Year’s resolution time to plot out your next big goal. Use some of the downtime to design your future now.
  制定一个计划---不要等到新年决议的时候才去规划你下一年的目标。用一些停工时间来设计你的未来。
  Get a Workout In – Are you waiting until after the holidays to start your fitness routine? Don’t. Hit the gym and get your workout in today. You do have time to workout.
  锻炼---要等到假期结束才开始你的健身计划吗?不要那样。今天开始就去健身房做锻炼。你有时间锻炼。
  Work When Others Aren’t – The workplace is less busy during the end of the year, and it’s one of the best times to get work done. Take advantage of an empty office environment to maximize your productivity.
  当别人没有工作的时候工作---在年底的时候办公室就没有平常那么挤了,那也是完成工作的最佳时机之一。利用好空闲的办公环境来让自己的效率最高。
  Get Caught Up – Nothing creates more stress than being behind on your work. Use the final time of the year to clean up your todo list and head into the New Year caught up on your tasks.
  赶工---没什么比工作落后更让人有压力了。用年底的时间去清理待办事项表里面的工作,进入新一年的工作中去。
  Review Your Year – What did you accomplish this year? The final weeks of the year are a perfect time to look back with perspective on your wins and losses. Write in your journal to remember what you have done and learn from what you wish you hadn’t.
  回顾今年---你今年都完成了哪些事情?一年的最后几周是一个回顾成功与失败的完美时间。在你的日志中记下你已经完成的,以及从你不希望发生的事情中收获的经验。
  And of Course, Look Ahead – Live for today, but look ahead to what can be tomorrow. It’s going to be a great next year!
  当然,展望未来----为今天而活,但是要期待明天。那会是一个美好的信念!
  Finish Your Year Before It’s Over.
  在今年结束以前完成好你的今年。
  Don’t let the final days and week of the year slip away.
  不要让今年的最后几天,今年的最后几周溜走。
  Spend time with your family. Do things that are important to you. And make the most of the time left.
  和你的家人共度时光。做一些对你很重要的事情。好好利用一下剩下的大部分时间吧。
  The year isn’t over yet… do something today!
  今年还没有完... 今天做些事情吧!
