媒体评论：
“平克给我们带来的坏消息是，我们身上有一些由时间决定的弱点，好消息是如何来弥补这些弱点。虽然所有这些建议都不会阻止时间飞逝，但至少能让你每个小时都过得更好一点儿。”——《华尔街日报》
这是一个时间碎片化的时代，如何充分发挥时间的价值，是每个人都关注的问题。过去，我们提倡的方法叫作时间管理，这套方法的本质是自我管理：教你如何按照时间制定工作计划，如何在规定时间内争分夺秒地完成工作。传统的时间管理的理论很美好，但实践起来操作很困难。其主要的原因是我们缺乏足够的意志力来执行工作：

·习惯晚睡晚起的你总是没毅力早起工作；
·工作中的小插曲再三地扰乱你的注意力；
·总发现精力不够用，一到下午你的工作效率就直线下滑；没能按计划完成任务总让你产生强烈的挫败感；
……

你一次次鼓起勇气去执行时间管理的计划，又一次次被结果打脸，你陷在时间管理的泥潭里反复折腾、没有成效，留给你的只剩强烈的挫败感。

你有没有想过，问题的关键不在于你缺乏意志力，而是你没有顺从你的天性，掌握科学的方法正确使用时间。在丹尼尔·平克的新书When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing《时机管理：完美时机的隐秘模式》中，提供了一个崭新的视角：时间不是用来规划的，时间是用来选择的！相对于针对任务的时间管理，时机管理更重视对人的分析，强调将人与任务完美地结合起来，进而提升效率。

If you want to measure the world's emotional state, to find a mood ring large enough to encircle the globe, you could do worse than Twitter. Nearly one billion human beings have accounts, and they post roughly 6,000 tweets every second. The sheer volume of these minimessages-what people say and how they say it-has produced an ocean of data that social scientists can swim through to understand human behavior.

A few years ago, two Cornell University sociologists, Michael Macy and Scott Golder, studied more than 500 million tweets that 2.4 million users in eighty-four countries posted over a two-year period. They hoped to use this trove to measure people's emotions in particular, how "positive affect"(emotions such as enthusiasm, confidence, and alertness) and' negative affect"(emotions such as anger, lethargy, and guilt) varied over time. The researchers didn't read those half a billion tweets one by one, of course. Instead, they fed the posts into a powerful and widely used computerized text- analysis program called LIWC(Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count) that evaluated each word for the emotion it conveyed.

What Macy and Golder found, and published in the eminent journal Science, was a remarkably consistent pattern across people's waking hours. Positive affect-language revealing that tweeters felt active, engaged, and hopeful-generally rose in the morning, plummeted in the afternoon, and climbed back up again in the early evening. Whether a tweeter was North American or Asian, Muslim or atheist, black or white or brown, didn't matter."The temporal affective pattern is similarly shaped across disparate cultures and geographic locations," they write. Nor did it matter whether people were tweeting on a Monday or a Thursday. Each weekday was basically the same. Weekend results differed slightly. Positive affect was generally a bit higher on Saturdays and Sundays-and the morning peak began about two hours later than on weekdays-but the over-all shape stayed the same.
