53.聰明且勤奮
聰明且勤奮。勤奮可加快實現(xiàn)你反復考慮過的計劃。蠢人常因匆忙而失敗,他們無法掌握要領,行事缺乏準備。而智者則不然,他們常因拖延而失敗,他們深謀遠慮,再三斟酌,這種耽擱往往讓他們無法及時作出正確判斷。但是,做事敏捷就是好運之母。講求效率,事不隔夜,可成就良多。"忙里偷閑,緩中帶急",確是金玉良言。
53.Be diligent and intelligent
Be diligent and intelligent. Diligence promptly executes what intelligence slowly excogitates. Hurry is the failing of fools: they know not the crucial point and set to work without preparation. On the other hand, the wise more often fail from procrastination: foresight begets deliberation, and delay often nullifies prompt judgment. Celerity is the mother of good fortune. He has done much who leaves nothing over till tomorrow. "Make haste slowly" is a royal motto.
