2024 has been Jack Antonoff’s year.

2024年是Jack Antonoff占盡風光的一年。

The prolific producer and musician added to his production discography three of the most interesting pop records of the year: Lorde’s Melodrama, St. Vincent’s Masseduction, and Taylor Swift’s Reputation. Meanwhile, he released his second album.

這位多產的音樂制作人兼樂手為自己的音樂作品名錄又添加了三張年度最有趣流行音樂唱片：Lorde的Melodrama，St. Vincent的Masseduction，還有Taylor Swift的Reputation。同時，他還發行了自己的第二張專輯。

RULE NO. 1: SCHEDULE TIME TO BE UNSCHEDULED

規則1：為拖延癥留足時間

“For me, being productive is really about messing around. I like to consciously sit down and say, ‘Okay, right now I’m not going to open anything on the hard drive. I’m just going to sit at the piano and try new things.’ It reminds me of how I did things when I was a kid. I actually schedule time to fuck around.”

“對我來說，高效率的工作就是插科打諢。我喜歡有意識的坐下來對自己說，‘好了，現在我不會打開硬盤上的任何文件。我要好好坐在鋼琴前，來點新東西?！@讓我回想起我還是個孩子的時候玩音樂的方式。我真的會為自己安排好用來浪費的時間?！?/p>

RULE NO. 2: TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT POST-SLEEP HAZE

規則2：利用好睡眼惺忪的時刻

“I try to work before I eat [breakfast]. Once you do anything, you’re just a little bit further away from the freedom and the weightlessness of waking up. As you start to acclimate to being awake, you become more and more reminded of who you are. And there are a lot of rules about who you are, like, ‘Oh, I don’t say these kinds of things, I don’t play these kinds of chords. I’m this way and not that way.'”

“我試著在吃早餐之前開始工作。一旦你開始做任何事，你就會離早上自由輕靈的感覺越來越遠。接著你開始適應早上起床后的狀態，你的自我認知越來越清晰。你對自己的認知總是伴隨著許多規則，比如，‘我不會說這種話的，我不會彈這種和弦的。我是這個樣子，而不是那個樣子。’”

RULE NO. 3: THERE’S NO ONE RIGHT WAY TO DO SOMETHING

規則3：沒有誰時刻準備著完成任何事

“[Taylor Swift’s] ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ happened within a few hours. Some songs take months and months, and some songs come out of nowhere. There’s no right way to do it. That’s the funny thing of trying to understand productivity with art because I think everything is just a trick to try to trick yourself into getting something done. It’s funny to schedule something that doesn’t care about your schedule.“

“Taylor Swift的Look What You Made Me Do是在幾個小時之內完成的。有的歌曲需要花費幾個月的時間，有的則是無尤來突然出現的。寫歌沒有固定的模式。你要明白，這就是藝術的生產率有趣的地方。這就是一個誘導你自己完成某樣東西的小把戲。想要規劃完成某件事情的時間，后者卻完全不理會你的計劃，這真是一件滑稽的事情。”

RULE NO. 4: LEAN INTO HOW YOU FEEL IN A GIVEN WORKSPACE

傾聽自己對現有工作空間的感受

“The point I’m making is that your body at some point doesn’t want to enter a space anymore or it does. I follow my body. In New York, I built this really nice studio in the back of my apartment. But lately when I’m home I’ve just sort of been going in the kitchen and playing guitar and writing that way. Maybe that big studio I built isn’t really the place for me anymore. You get these routines, and then one day you just never want to go back. It’s like falling out of love, you can’t predict it. But I think it’s important to recognize that the space you work in has to be one your body is excited to enter.”

“我的意思是，在某個時刻你的雙腿會突然不想要走進某個場所。我會跟著他們走。在紐約，我在自己的公寓后面有一個非常好看的工作室。但是最近每次我一回家就會走進廚房，在那里彈吉他，寫歌。也許我建的那個大工作室已經不再是我心儀的工作場所了。你會養成這樣那樣的習慣，接著突然有一天你再也不想這樣了。這就像失戀一樣，是不可預測的。不過我認為重要的是，你要明白你的工作場所應該是你的雙腿想要走進去的地方?！?/p>

RULE NO. 5: “IF IT’S TOO BIG, DON’T LOOK AT IT”

“如果任務太龐大，就別盯著它看”

“I look back on the year I had and it gives me a panic attack. If, on January 1, 2024, someone laid out in front of me that I was going to make the Lorde record and the St. Vincent record and the Bleachers album and the stuff with Taylor Swift, I’d say I couldn’t do it. But I knew they were going to get done. You slowly chip away at it one day at a time and keep your head down. If it’s too big, don’t look at it. If you want to do something massive , don’t look at it, because all you’re going to see is why it won’t work. The killer of productivity is reality.”

“我回顧這一年的時候，突然有種驚嚇感。如果在2024年1月1日，有人站在我面前告訴我，我會完成Lorde的唱片，St. Vincent的唱片，Bleachers的專輯，Taylor Swift的專輯，我會說我做不到。但我知道假以時日我能完成它們。你一天只需完成一點點，堅持不懈的干下去。如果任務太過龐大，就不要盯著它看。如果你想做好一樣龐雜的工作，不要去看它，因為你只會看到重重阻礙。現實會抹殺你的靈感?！?/p>
