1Ted 演讲标题：如何掌控你的自由时间When people find out I write about time management,They assume two things.One is that I’malways on time,And I’m not.I have four small children,And I would like to blame them for myoccasional tardiness,But sometimes it’s just not their fault.I was once late to my own speech ontime management.We all had to just take a moment together and savor that irony.The secondthing they assume is that I have lots of tips and tricks for saving bits of time here andthere.Sometimes I’ll hear from magazines that are doing a story along these lines,generally onhow to help their readers find an extra hour in the day.And the idea is that we’ll shave bits oftime off everyday activities,add it up,and we’ll have time for the good stuff.And I question theentire premise of this piece,but I’m always interested in hearing what they’ve come up withbefore they call me.Some of my favorites:doing errands where you only have to make theright-hand turns;Being extremely judicious in microwave usage:it says three to three-and-a-halfminutes on the package,we’re totally getting in on the bottom side of that.And my personalfavorite,which makes sense on some level,is to DVR your favorite shows so you can fast-forwardthrough the commercials.That way, you save eight minutes every half hour,so in the course of twohours of watching TV,you find 32 minutes to exercise.which is true.You know another way to find32 minutes to exercise?Don’t watch two hours of TV a day,right?Anyway,the idea is we’ll save bitsof time here and there,add it up,we will finally get to everything we want to do.当人们发现我在写关于时间管理的内容时，他们总会假设两件事。一件事是我总是很守时，但是我不是。我有四个小孩，我倒是很想把偶尔的迟到怪到他...
