塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯：自助论·摘录 193
塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《自助论》· Self-Help · 领导
We have already referred to his remarkable power of abstracting himself from the work, no matter how engrossing, immediately in hand, and concentrating his energies upon the details of some entirely different business. Thus Napier relates that it was while he was preparing to fight the battle of Salamanca that he had to expose to the Ministers at home the futility of relying upon a loan; it was on the heights of San Christoval, on the field of battle itself, that he demonstrated the absurdity of attempting to establish a Portuguese bank; it was in the trenches of Burgos that he dissected Funchal’s scheme of finance, and exposed the folly of attempting the sale of church property; and on each occasion, he showed himself as well acquainted with these subjects as with the minutest detail in the mechanism of armies.

白话
前面提到他有种非凡能力：不管手头的事多吸引人，都能立刻抽身，把精力集中到完全不同的另一摊事务上。比如纳皮尔记载，他正准备打萨拉曼卡战役时，还得向国内大臣说明靠贷款打仗行不通；在圣克里斯托瓦尔高地上、战场本身，他论证了建立葡萄牙银行有多荒唐；在布尔戈斯战壕里，他剖析丰沙尔的财政方案，指出卖教会财产多愚蠢。每次他都对这些话题了如指掌，就像熟悉军队最细的机制一样。这说明，真正的多任务不是同时做，而是能快速切换并深入细节。
