近日来,电视台的商业广告中播出人们试图买到一点时间的节目,它恰恰抓住了我们大多数人在这个繁忙社会中的心理。前哥伦比亚大学校长尼古拉斯·默里·巴特勒说:“我不愿一周只有40小时,但愿一天就能有40小时。”有些人和我们付出同样的时间,却完成了那么多的工作,真使我感到惊奇,他们是怎么工作的呢? 有一点是清楚的,那就是他们不浪费标志着我们这一时代的点滴时间。他们决不将精力消耗在不耐烦地等电话和修理员的到来,而是创造性地抓住每一分、每一秒,他们将一枝铅笔、一本书、一把工具放在手边。
In recent days, commercials on television have been broadcast in shows that people are trying to buy for a little while, and it captures the mentality of most of us in this busy society. Nicholas Murray Butler, former president of Columbia University, said: “I do not want to have only 40 hours a week, and I hope 40 hours a day.” Some people spend so much time with us, but they have done so much. To my surprise, how did they work? What is clear is that they do not waste a bit of time marking the days of our time. Instead of spending their energy impatiently waiting for the phone and the attendant to come, they seized every minute creatively, and every second they put a pencil, a book, a tool at hand.
