The value of time
"Time," says the proverb, "is money". This means that every moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets.
If our time is usefully employed, it will either turn out some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money when the proper opportunity comes. Let those, who think nothing of wasting time, remember this.
Our life is nothing more than our time. To kill time is therefore a form of suicide. We are shocked when we think of death, and we spare no pains, no trouble, and no expense to preserve life.
But we are too often indifferent to the loss of an hour or of a day, forgetting that our life is the sum total of the days and of the hours we live. A day or an hour wasted is therefore so much life forfeited. Our life is a brief span measuring some seventy or eighty years in all.
But nearly one third of this has to be spent in sleep; some years have to be spent over our meals; some in making journeys on land and voyages by sea; some in merry-making; some in watching over the sick-beds of our nearest and dearest relatives.
Now if all these years were to be deducted from the term over which our life extends, we shall find about twenty or thirty years at our disposal for active work. Whoever remembers this can never willingly wastea single moment of his life.
All time is precious; but the time of our childhood and of our youth is more precious than any other portion of our existence. For those are the periods when alone we can acquire knowledge and develop our capacities.
If we allow these morning hours of life to slip away, we shall never be able to recoup the loss. Just as money laid out at interest doubles and trebles itself in time, so the precious hours of childhood and youth, if properly used, will yield us incalculable advantages.
时刻的价值
谚语说:“时刻便是金钱。”这句话的意思是,一时顷刻只需用得有用,都会让咱们的口袋增加一些钱。
假如咱们的时刻运用妥当,就能出产出有用的和重要的产品,在市场上卖得必定的价钱;或许充分咱们的经历,增加咱们的才华,待到恰当机遇咱们就能挣得金钱。那些对糟蹋时刻毫不介意的人该记住这一点。
再说,咱们的生命无非便是咱们的时刻,因而糟蹋时刻也便是一种自杀。咱们想到死便惊慌不已,因而不惜一切尽力、费事和费用来保全咱们的生命。
但是咱们关于丢失一个小时或一天的时刻无动于衷,忘记了咱们的生命本来便是咱们日子的每一天、每一小时的总和。因而糟蹋一天或一个小时便是丢失一天或一个小时的生命。人生时刻短,一共不过七八十年。
但是将近三分之一的时刻必须用睡觉;吃饭也得花去好几年;陆路海上旅行又是几年;再加上娱乐活动的几年,在病床边照看至亲至爱的几年。
现在假如从咱们的寿射中扣除一切这些年月,咱们将会发现。能受咱们分配的有用的工作时刻大约仅二三十年罢了。谁能记住这一点,谁就不会毫不勉强地糟蹋他生命的分分秒秒。
一切的时刻都是名贵的,而咱们的幼年和青年时期的岁月比一生中其他阶段更为名贵。由于只要在这两个阶段咱们才华获取常识,增加才华。
假如咱们让这些生命的早晨韶光悄然溜走,这丢失永久也无法弥补。储蓄金钱,发生利息,到时候会翻两三倍;相同,幼年和青年时期的名贵韶光,假如运用妥当,必将带来不可估量的利益。
