  Sometimes we are so busy that we feel we don't have time to plan, but in fact, no matter how busy we are, we should find it worthwhile to take time to plan our activities. Perhaps we don't have time to plan and do absolutely everything else we would like to get done. Yet, by neglecting to plan, we will free very little time; and by failing to plan, we shall probably not discriminate among the essential and nonessential activities. If we spend only ten minutes at the beginning or end of the day planning, our efforts will be repaid many times over. The less time we feel we have to spare, the more important it is to plan our time carefully.

  Planning and making choices involve careful thinking and decision making. In the process, we learn to recognize what criteria we use in setting priorities. In all types of planning, we make lists and set priorities. A most useful planning strategy is to make a daily "To do" list. Not all the items on the list are of equal value. Once we have made a list, we need to set priorities on the basis of what is important to us on this particular day.

Sometimes we are so busy that we feel we don't have time to plan, but in fact, no matter how busy we are, we should find it worthwhile to take time to plan our activities.

1. so a/ad that s + v : 너무 a/ad해서 s + v이다

2. find it(가목적어) + a + to 부정사(진목적어) :

때때로 우리는 너무 바빠 계획할 시간이 없지만, 사실, 아무리 우리가 바쁘더라도, 우리는 우리의 활동을 계획하는 것은 가치가 있다는 것을 알아야만 한다.

Perhaps we don't have time to plan and do absolutely everything else we would like to get done.

아마도 끝마치고 싶어 하는 것을 제외한 모든 것을 전적으로 계획하여 할 시간이 없다.

Yet, by neglecting to plan, we will free very little time; and by failing to plan, we shall probably not discriminate among the essential and nonessential activities.

very little time : 거의 시간을 없어서 ~ 못하게 되는

그러나 계획을 무시하는 것으로, 우리는 거의 시간으로부터 자유롭지 못할 것이다; 그리하여 계획을 하지 못하는 것으로, 우리는 꼭 필요하고 꼭 필요하지 않은 활동을 아마도 구별하지 못하게 될 것이다.

If we spend only ten minutes at the beginning or end of the day planning, our efforts will be repaid many times over.

spend + 시간 + ing : 시간을 ~ing하면서 보내다

만일 우리가 하루의 시작 또는 끝에서 단지 10분만을 계획하는데 쓴다면, 우리의 노력은 10배 이상 보상을 받게 될 것이다.

The less time we feel we have to spare, the more important it is to plan our time carefully.

the 비교급 + S + V, the 비교급 + 형용사 + S + V : ~하면 할수록, 더욱 더 ...하다

우리가 여유로운 시간이 더더욱 없다고 느끼면 느낄수록, 우리가 조심스럽게 계호기하는 것은 더욱더 중요하다.

Planning and making choices involve careful thinking and decision making.

계획을 하는 것과 선택을 하는 것은 조심스런 사고와 의사결정을 포함한다.

In the process, we learn to recognize what criteria we use in setting priorities.

이 과정에서, 우리는 우선권을 설정할 때 사용하는 기준을 인식하는 것을 배운다.

In all types of planning, we make lists and set priorities.

모든 종류의 계획에서, 우리는 명단을 작성하고 우선권을 둔다.

A most useful planning strategy is to make a daily "To do" list.

가장 유용한 계획전략중 하나는 일상에서 “해야할” 명단을 작성하는 것이다.

Not all the items on the list are of equal value.

1. not all : (부분부정) 모든 것이 반드시 ~한 것이 아닌

2. of equal value = equally valuable

명단에 있는 모든 항목들이 반드시 똑같이 귀중한 것만은 아니다.

Once we have made a list, we need to set priorities on the basis of what is important to us on this particular day.

once : (접속사) 일단 ~한다면

일단 우리가 명단을 작성했다면, 우리는 이 특정한 날에 우리에게 중요한 것을 기반으로 우선권을 정해야할 필요가 있다.
