Imagine being able to produce the same amount of writing you do now in half the time.
想象一下，只需要当前一半的时间你就能完成同样地写作量。
Or even producing double the amount of work you do now in the same amount of time. It’s not only possible to do, but very simple.
或者说，甚至在同样时间内完成你现在所做工作的双倍工作量。这不仅仅是可能实现的，而且相当容易实现。
I’ve written thousands of articles during the period I’ve been making a full time living online, and I’ve discovered that the only thing holding me back from writing faster is myself.
在我全天在线生活的那段时间，我写出了成千上万篇文章，而且我曾发现唯一阻止我写的更快的障碍，是我自己本身。
You see, we all have beliefs within that tell us what our writing speed limit is. As I’ve let go of these beliefs and blocks, I’ve found myself writing faster and getting into the writing zone effortlessly.
你看，我们心里都有一个声音在跟我们说是什么限制了写作速度。当我放下这些声音和障碍，我发现自己正以更快的速度写作，并且轻而易举地进入了状态。
With all that said, let’s look at ten simple ways you can double the speed of your writing, right now:
说了这么多，让咱们看看能让你写作速度翻倍的10个办法，现在开始：
1. Outline
1. 列提纲
The first thing that has proven highly effective for me and my writing is to outline my articles before I start writing.
最先被证实对我的写作来说非常有效的办法，是在我开始写作之前列出文章提纲。
I know this sounds ridiculously simple. The problem is that most people know about outlining but never use it in their writing properly.
我知道听起来这法子简单地想笑。但问题是，大多数人知道列提纲，却从未在他们写作过程中合理利用它。
For example, with this article I brainstormed a good headline, and I then wrote down the 10 different ways that you can double the speed of your writing.
例如，写这篇文章时候我灵光一闪想出一个好的标题，然后我列出能让你加倍写作速度翻倍的10个方法。
It’s nothing fancy, but it works wonders for me and as you implement it into your writing, you may notice the same effects.
这并不异想天开，但对我来说效果好极了，而且当你把他用在你的写作中去，你可能注意到它是同样有效的。
2. Single-Task
2. 一次只做一件事
The next step is to single task, and eliminate any and all distractions while you’re writing.
下一步是专心做事，并且排除所有任何在写作时候的打扰。
I know this is hard with Twitter, Facebook and e-mail beeping for our attention, but I’ve found that I can significantly increase the speed of my writing by simply doing nothing other than writing.
我知道这有些小难，因为有Twitter、facebook和email滴滴响着提醒有消息需要注意，但是我发现通过简单的双耳不闻窗外事一心埋头写作，大大的增加了我写作的速度。
Another really simple tip, but the magic lies not in complexity, but in simplicity.
这就是我要说的另一个简单的法子，但是魔法不存在于复杂之中，而是存在于简约之中。
So focus on getting your first draft done and then allow yourself to check e-mail or whatever your addiction is.
所以专注于完成你的初稿，然后允许自己查看email或你爱好的任何事。
Or you may want to wait until the end of the day until you reward yourself.
或者你可能想等下去直到一天结束你奖励自己。
3. Destroy Your Inner Critic
3. 消除你内心的挑剔
Our inner critic gets in the way of writing the first draft fast, because it wants to have everything perfect before you’ve even written the article.
我们内心的挑剔很快半路杀进初稿的写作，甚至在你写文章之前，因为他要让每一点都完美无缺。
You can simply thank your inner critic for caring about the quality of your work and focus on getting the first draft done.
你可以简单的谢谢你内心的挑剔对作品质量的关心，并专心把初稿写完。
Tell your inner critic that you will edit the article after you’ve written it. The magic in writing well is not in producing a perfect first draft, but editing and rewriting afterward.
告诉内心的挑剔，你会在写完之后编辑修改文章。写出好作品的关键不在于完成一个完美的初稿，而是随后的编辑修改和重写。
4. Voice-to-Text
4. 使用语音识别输入软件
Another fantastic way to increase the speed of your writing is to use voice to text software such as Dragon NaturallySpeaking.
另一个提高你的写作速度的好方法是使用语音识别输入软件，例如Dragon NaturallySpeaking（译注：这软件电驴有下）。
In fact, I’m using this very program to write this article. It allows my hands to take a break and it lets the inspiration flow freely.
实际上，我正在用这款特棒的程序在这篇文章。它允许我双手休息一会儿，它让想象自由地飞翔。
It is not without mistakes, but it is amazingly accurate, especially when you’ve used it for a while and it has gotten used to your voice and way of speaking.
它不是不会出错错误的，但它出奇的准确，特别当你已经用了一会儿，并且它已经适应了你的声音和说话方式的时候。
5. Brain Dump
5. 头脑枯竭法
Whenever I’m stuck, I set a goal to write as fast as I can. If I run out of things to say or write, I will simply repeat the last word to keep the momentum going.
每当我思路被卡住的时候，我设下目标让自己能写多快写多快。如果我脱离要说或者要写的东西，我会简单的重复最后一个字，让这个趋势走下去。
Brain dumping is a great way to get all your ideas out.
头脑枯竭法是一个把所有想法扯出来的好办法。
Once you’ve got the ideas on there, you can pick and choose the ideas that you think are relevant to whatever message you’re trying to convey.
一旦你在那儿有了想法，你能拿起文章接着写下去，并选择那些跟任何你努力想要表述信息的相关表达方法。
6. Deadline
6. 设一个最后期限
If you want to dramatically cut down the time you spend writing articles, I suggest you get an egg timer or a regular clock and set a deadline for each article.
如果你想要大幅度降低花在写文章上的时间，我建议你拿出一个煮蛋计时器或一个平常的闹钟，给每篇文章设定一个时间限制。
If you’re writing a 500 word article, you may want to set a deadline for 10 minutes.
如果你在写一个500字文章，你可能需要设最后期限为10分钟。
This will force you to get everything out as fast as possible. It will also help to suspend your inner critic and focus on what’s truly important.
这样做会迫使你尽快把每样东西写出来。它也会帮你暂停内心的挑剔并专注于真正重要的东西。
7. Routine
7. 用通过习惯进入状态
We all have routines and rituals that help us get into the right state for writing.
我们都有帮助自己进入正常写作状态的套路和方法。
Mine is often making a cup of green tea and sipping it while I outline whatever I’m going to work on.
我的习惯经常是泡一杯绿茶，在我给任何我要写的文章列提纲的时候啜上一口。
Think back to the last time you felt really good about diving into your writing. What did you do? How did you feel? Where were you?
回想最后一次你对快速进入写作的过程感觉非常好的时候。你做了哪些事情，你感觉怎样，你在什么地方？
8. Place
8. 找到适合写作的地方
There are places where you seem to get into the flow of writing effortlessly. For some people this may mean going to a coffee shop, while others like sitting in nature with no distractions at all.
有这样一些地方，在那里你好像轻而易举地就进入了写作状态。对一些人来说，这可能意味着去咖啡店，而其他人喜欢坐在自然环境里不受丁点打扰。
I personally prefer writing at my desk with total silence. I may listen to music from time to time, but often enjoy the silence.
我个人偏爱坐在我的桌子前写文章的时候的那种完全安静。我可能时不时的听听音乐，但我通常享受那种安静。
Find your own sacred writing space and spend your time writing there as much as possible.
找出你自己的神圣写作处所，在哪儿花尽量多的时间写作。
9. Replicate the Zone
9. 复写一个空间
Think about a time when you’ve been in the zone. How do you know when you’re entering the zone?
想想当你在一个空间之中的时候。你怎么知道自己是什么时候进入这个空间的呢？
What do you feel inside your body? What is it that tells you that you’re now in the zone and your writing is flowing effortlessly onto the page?
在你的内心你感觉到了什么？是什么告诉你，你现在身处这个空间，你的文字不费吹灰之力自然流淌到纸上？
You see, when you identify what the zone looks like to you, you can replicate it.
你会发现，当你鉴别那个空间对你来说是什么样子的时候，你可以描述它。
10. Passion
10. 写作的激情
This may seem irrelevant at first, but have you ever noticed how much more you get done when you’re passionate about the topic you’re working on?
可能这一点乍看起来无关紧要，但你是否曾经留意到，当你对正在写的话题充满激情的时候，你多完成了多少文字？
I certainly have.
当然我注意到过这点。
Being passionate is not only important in writing, but in every area of your life. If you constantly do what excites you, you will produce high-quality work while at the same time feeling good about yourself.
对于充满激情这一点，不仅对写作重要，而是对你的生活的处处如此。如果你一直写那些激动人心的话题，恰好同时又自我感觉很棒的时候，你将写出高质量的作品。
As you finish reading this article, I want to remind you that you already have all the resources within you to easily write faster, better, and higher quality articles.
到此你完成了对本文的阅读，我想提醒你一句，你已经拥有让自己轻松地就能写得更快，更好，写出高质量文章的所有方法。
We often get in our own way, and as you become aware of this, you can begin to realize that you can get into the zone whenever you want.
我们经常进入自己的方式，当你意识到这点，你就能开始认识道你能在随时进入你想进入的空间。
