An important secret of Lu Xun's success is to cherish time. When Lu Xun was twelve years old in a private school in Shaoxing City, his father was seriously ill and his two younger brothers were still young. Lu Xun not only often goes to pawn shops and pharmacies, but also helps his mother with housework. In order not to affect his study, he must make accurate time arrangements.
Since then, Lu Xun has been squeezing time almost every day. He said, "Time is like water in a sponge. As long as it is crowded, there is always something. " Lu Xun has a wide range of reading interests, and he likes writing. He is also deeply interested in folk art, especially legends and paintings. It is precisely because he has a wide range of knowledge and studies in many ways that time is very important to him. He has been ill all his life, and his working conditions and living environment are not good, but he will not give up until late at night every day.
In Lu Xun's eyes, time is like life. "Americans say that time is money. But I think: time is life. If you waste other people's time for no reason, it is actually tantamount to killing people for money. " So Lu Xun hates people who "run around all day, sit in the west and make irresponsible remarks". When he is busy at work, if someone comes to chat or chat with him, even if he is a very good friend, he will rudely say to others, "Well, there you go again. Isn't there anything else to do?"
Ju du ying Shu
Che Yin, who was born in the Jin Dynasty, was a rich boy, but later his family came down and became penniless. However, he can constantly improve himself in adversity.
Che Yin was sensible and diligent when he was young. Because he has to help his family during the day, he wants to use the long night to read more books and enrich himself. However, his family is poor and has no spare money to buy oil and light a lamp. How did he break through the limitations of objective conditions? At first, he had to recite the contents of books at night, until one summer night, he saw several fireflies flying and small fluorescent lights flashing in the dark. So he came up with a good idea: he caught many fireflies and put them in a small bag sewn with white summer cloth. Because the white summer cloth is very thin and can emit the light of fireflies, he hung up his bag and became a "lighting lamp".
Che Yin studied hard and finally became a famous scholar, and later became a popular official. At that time, whenever there was a rally or celebration, everyone would be disappointed if Che Yin was not present.
The story of Edison cherishing time.
Edison only attended primary school for three months in his life, and his knowledge came from his mother's teaching and self-study. His success should be attributed to his mother's understanding and patient teaching since childhood, which made Edison, who was originally considered an imbecile, become a world-famous "king of invention" when he grew up.
Edison was curious about many things since he was a child, and he liked to try it himself until he understood the truth. When he grew up, he devoted himself to research and invention according to his interest in this field. He established a laboratory in New Jersey, and invented the electric light, telegraph, phonograph, film machine, magnetic mineral analyzer, crusher and so on for more than 2000 kinds of things in his life. Edison's strong research spirit made him make great contributions to the improvement of human lifestyle.
"Waste, the biggest waste is wasting time." Edison often said to his assistant. "Life is short, so we should try to do more with less time."
One day, Edison was working in the laboratory. He handed his assistant an empty glass bulb without a lampholder and said, "Measure the capacity of the bulb." He bowed his head to work again. After a long time, he asked, "What's the capacity?" He didn't hear the answer, turned to see the assistant measuring the circumference and inclination of the light bulb with a soft ruler, and poured the measured figures on the table for calculation. He said, "Time, time, why does it take so much time?" Edison came over, picked up the empty light bulb, filled it with water, handed it to his assistant, and said, "Pour the water into the measuring cup and tell me its capacity at once." The assistant read out the numbers at once. Edison said, "How easy it is to measure. It is both accurate and time-saving. Why didn't you think of that? " ? Still counting. Isn't that a waste of time? "The assistant's face turned red.
Edison murmured, "Life is too short, too short. Save time and do more! " "
Lu Xun races against time.
Lu Xun, formerly known as Zhou Shuren, is an outstanding modern writer.
An important secret of Lu Xun's success is to cherish time. When Lu Xun was twelve years old in a private school in Shaoxing City, his father was seriously ill and his two younger brothers were still young. Lu Xun not only often goes to pawn shops and pharmacies, but also helps his mother with housework. In order not to affect his study, he must make accurate time arrangements.
Since then, Lu Xun has been squeezing time almost every day. He said: time is like water in a sponge. As long as you squeeze it, it always exists. Lu Xun has a wide range of reading interests, and he likes writing. He is also deeply interested in folk art, especially legends and paintings. It is precisely because he has a wide range of knowledge and studies in many ways that time is very important to him. He has been ill all his life, and his working conditions and living environment are not good, but he will not give up until late at night every day.
In Lu Xun's eyes, time is like life. Americans say that time is money. But I think: time is life. If you waste other people's time for no reason, it is tantamount to killing people for money. Therefore, Lu Xun hates people who always run around with their boss, sit in the west and make irresponsible remarks. When he is busy at work, if someone comes to chat or chat with him, even if he is a very good friend, he will rudely say to others, "Well, there you go again. Isn't there anything else to do?"
Throughout the ages, many people have lamented that time flies, so they lamented that "time flies, life should eat in time, eat in time, eat in time", and "how can the water of the Yellow River move out of heaven and into the ocean, never to return ..." Indeed, the speed of time is really difficult to estimate and describe. So, how can a person live a more meaningful life and make due contributions in his lifetime? This is to cherish your short time. The ancients had a poem: "When people are studying, they don't know whether they are diligent or not, and they regret it later." Poems such as "Young people don't work hard, old people are sad" are warning people that life is limited, so we must cherish time like gold, never lose precious light and shade, but study more and do more business when we are young and promising.
A person cherishes time, that is, cherishes his own life. From ancient times to the present, there is no one who has achieved great success without cherishing time. The great inventor Edison finished an invention in an average of three days. He is studying carefully every minute. He did 1000 experiments for many times, just to find out what material to use as the filament. Mr. Lu Xun, a great writer, has a proverb, "Where is the genius? I am there when others are drinking coffee at work. " He left us more than six million words of spiritual wealth, precisely because he spent all other people's time drinking coffee on writing. Mathematician Chen Jingrun, day and night, devoted himself to studying a mathematical problem-Goldbach guessed that there were several sacks in the draft of calculus alone, but he finally proved this problem and took off the jewel in the crown of mathematics. Marx, the revolutionary mentor of the world proletariat, wrote Das Kapital before his death. These examples vividly show that if a person wants to make some contributions in his lifetime, he must cherish time.
Shakespeare's famous saying: "Those who give up time, time will also give up him" "Time will break through the splendor and exquisiteness of young people, and it will carve parallel lines on the forehead of beauty; It will eat rare treasures and be born beautiful, and nothing can escape the sickle it sweeps. " This also strongly shows that if you want to succeed, you must cherish time.
Leonardo da vinci, an outstanding Italian painter, said: "If you work hard for a day, you can have a good sleep;" If you work hard all your life, you will be happy and bright. Lev tolstoy's motto is "If you don't use your time effectively, you will never be able to return the little time you let go". The world also heard Darwin: "How can you do so many things in your life?" He replied, "I never think that half an hour is a trivial short time. "How can such famous sayings, epigrams and visual statements not profoundly tell people that many people who have made achievements and achievements have made achievements because they cherish time and spent their youth in a wonderful way?
Edison only attended primary school for three months in his life, and his knowledge came from his mother's teaching and self-study.

The assistant's face turned red.
Edison murmured, "Life is too short, too short. Save time and do more! " "
Edison was a poor worker before he became famous. Once, his old friend met him in the street and said with concern, "look, this coat on you is very worn." You should get a new one. "
"Need it to be? Nobody knows me in new york. " Edison answered indifferently.
A few years later, Edison became a great inventor.
One day, Edison met that friend again in the street of new york. "Oh," exclaimed my friend, "why are you still wearing this old coat? This time, I have to change a new one anyway! "
"Need it to be? Everyone here already knows me. " Edison still answered indifferently.
Counting all the people who have made great achievements in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, all cherish time like gold. There is a saying in the ancient book Huai Nan Zi: "The sage does not value the jade of the ruler, but the yin of the inch." There is such a poem in "Long Songs of Han Yuefu": "When will all rivers return to the sea in the east and return to the west?" "Young people will be sad if they don't work hard." Tao Yuanming of the Jin Dynasty also wrote a poem about cherishing time: "It is difficult to get up in the morning when you are in the prime of your life. It is necessary to encourage in time, and time waits for no one. " At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Zhenbai's poem "White Deer Cave" had a wonderful metaphor of "an inch of time and an inch of gold". The French writer Balzac compared time to capital. Goethe, a German poet, regarded time as his own property. Mr. Lu Xun has a deeper understanding of time. He said, "Time is life. Wasting other people's time for no reason is actually tantamount to killing people for money. " After Faraday's middle age, in order to save time, he devoted himself to scientific creation, strictly controlled himself, refused to participate in all activities unrelated to science, and even resigned as the president of the Royal Academy of Sciences. Madame Curie never put a chair in the reception room in order not to delay her visit. 76-year-old Einstein was ill, and an old friend asked him what he wanted to do. He said, I just wish I had a few hours to sort out some manuscripts.
Most contemporary teenagers envy the affluent life in America and Japan and their cars and appliances. However, do you know how much they cherish time? As early as more than 200 years ago, when the United States was not independent, Franklin, one of the pioneers, scientists, industrialists and leaders of the American independence movement, included two proverbs that were widely circulated in the United States and became an instant hit in his book road to riches: "Time is life" and "Time is money". In the early 1990s, a youth delegation from China and Liaoning attended a meeting in Japan. Before going abroad, the head of the delegation prepared a thick stack of speeches, but the meeting schedule handed over by Japanese officials at that time read: "Chinese speaking time: 10: 17: 20 to 18: 20." The speaking time is only one minute. This seems incredible to people who read newspapers for half a day with a cup of tea and a cigarette, but it is very common in Japan. From workers to scholars, Japan has a strong sense of time. Their basic criterion for assessing workers' incompetence is the amount of labor per unit time on the premise of ensuring quality, and the time is generally accurate to the second.

Madame Curie's father wanted to give her an extra chair, but she didn't want it. The reason is that with the chair, the guest will not leave, which shows that she cherishes time.
Reflections on "Hurry"
I have learned the article "The Gift of Time Old Man" before, and I know the importance of cherishing time. Since reading Mr. Zhu Ziqing's "Hurry", this feeling has become more profound!
I remember a saying: "Time is the most impartial. It is fair to give anyone 24 hours a day. Then why is there a deviation in time? " Because some people waste time at will, let time fly and accomplish nothing all day, so they abandon time, so time also abandons him. So his twenty-four hours are very short. Some people arrange their time reasonably, cherish it, don't waste it, and use it to do something meaningful, which will get twice the result with half the effort. Their 24 hours are very long. "This immortal quote has always been the motto of my concept of time.
Lenin's words fully reflect the preciousness of time-"to win time is to win everything." It is also mentioned in "Long Songs"-if the young don't work hard, the old will be sad. This also gives us a wake-up call to cherish time! As the saying goes, an inch of money can't buy an inch of time. Whenever I hear these sentences that cherish time, I will think of Mr. Zhu Ziqing's essay "Hurry".
I once heard a joke: a company employee asks for leave from his boss, and the boss said to him, "There are 52 weekends in 365 days a year, minus 104 days, leaving 26 1 day, and you are absent from work every day for 16 hours, minus 170 days, leaving 966." Minus these 69 days, there are 22 days left. You usually take two sick days a year, but now there are only 20 days left. There are five holidays every year, and the company doesn't go to work, so I will give you 14 days off. In this way, your working hours are only 1 day, and you have to ask for leave in this 1 day! ? "
After reading this joke, I couldn't help laughing, with a chill in my laughter. Although the boss's calculation is not very accurate, don't you see any irony in it?
Swallows have gone and come back, willows have withered, when they are green again, peach blossoms have withered, and when they bloom again, only our time is gone forever.
Students, cherish the time! Time is money and life! If you waste your time and spend your youth in the present, you are committing suicide slowly. Friend, please believe me!
