如果你感觉自己正处在职业发展的低潮，或者希望为自己增添一点职业魅力，你不妨从今天起就开始执行我们收集的一些可促进职业发展的策略。从联系老同事，到每天多花几分钟考虑办公室着装，这些非常有效的建议虽然简单，但都充满了智慧。
Reconnect with someone in your network
挖掘现有的人脉网络
A simple email saying hello to an old colleague will not only keep you on their mind, it’s also a way for you to stay updated on what your old coworkers are currently working on. It’s also a good idea to connect with business contacts on LinkedIn, so no one falls off the map.
发一封简单的电子邮件，问候老同事，不仅可以让他们记住你，也可以让你了解你的老同事们正在做什么。在LinkedIn上联系曾有过业务往来的人士也是不错的主意，这样一来，你就不会被人们遗忘。
Dress the part
穿着得体
Regardless of how laid-back your office vibe is, look sharp. It is always better to be overdressed than under dressed. Fashion can be an effective form of non-verbal communication—just make sure your ensemble is not diverting attention away from the primary focus: your abilities.
不论你的办公室氛围多么悠闲，你都应该注意着装。即使穿着再讲究，也要好于太随便。服装是一种有效的非语言交际方式——只是，你要确保自己的着装不会分散人们对主要焦点的关注：你的能力。
Get your most important work done in the morning
在早上完成最重要的工作
The majority of us only have a window of two or three hours during which we’re very focused and capable of the sharpest thinking and planning. Usually, this is first thing in the morning. Spend this time working on your most important tasks of the day to ensure you are performing at your peak.
我们大多数人只有两三个小时能够保持专注，进行最敏锐的思考和计划。通常情况下，需要专注和思考的事情要排在早晨，优先解决。利用这段时间去完成一天中最重要的任务，确保自己保持巅峰状态。
Update your resume
更新简历
Regardless of whether you’re looking for a new job or not, it’s important to keep your résumé updated with new experience, skills and projects. You never know when that next opportunity is going to come knocking, and you want to be prepared when it does.
不论你是否要找工作，实时更新简历，添加新的经验、技能和项目，都具有重要意义。你不知道什么时候就会有新的机会降临，你也希望当机会来临时，你已经做好准备。
Limit your time on social media
限制花在社交媒体的时间
The ubiquity of social media is an easy distraction and major time suck. Even small breaks to check your smartphone can add up. Don’t fall down the rabbit hole. Get off your devices. Power down, go off the grid, and stay focused so you can devote all of your resources to the work-related tasks at hand.
无处不在的社交媒体容易分散注意力，耗费大量时间。即使你在简短休息时间查看智能手机，加起来也是不小的浪费。不要沉溺于社交媒体。关掉设备。关机断网，保持专注，将你的所有资源用在手头的工作任务上。（财富中文网）
