塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯:节俭·摘录 43
塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《节俭》· Thrift · 投资
Thrift of Time is equal to thrift of money. Franklin said, "Time is gold." If one wishes to earn money, it may be done by the proper use of time. But time may also be spent in doing many good and noble actions. It may be spent in learning, in study, in art, in science, in literature. Time can be economized by system. System is an arrangement to secure certain ends, so that no time may be lost in accomplishing them. Every business man must be systematic and orderly. So must every housewife. There must be a place for everything, and everything in its place. There must also be a time for everything, and everything must be done in time.

白话
节省时间跟省钱一样重要。富兰克林说“时间就是金钱”,但时间还能用来学知识、做学问、搞艺术、研究科学、读文学,这些比单纯赚钱更有价值。怎么省时间?靠系统安排:每件事都有固定位置,每样东西都放在该放的地方;每件事都有固定时间,每件事都按时完成。这样就不会因为找东西、拖延而浪费时间。不管你是做生意还是操持家务,都得有条理、有秩序。养成这个习惯,时间自然就省出来了。
