The Reflection
Having read the name of the book, I think it is a book which will teach me to live in a proper order and help me deal with countless work. It is the experience that one of stars I like used to introduce time management which gives him more time to study and have fun, which draws my interest to this book. However, the book is not totally about how to control time, it is a book about how to have a full and relaxing life. Although some meanings of the sentences are hard to catch because of its literary form, I am certain that I have learned lessons. In my opinion, the book can be divided into two parts. The reasons and my reflections are as follows.
To start with, I’d like to show the fabulous sentence in the book, “ The supply of time is truly a daily miracle, an affair genuinely astonishing when one examines it.” As it says, we can not have more than 24 hours each day, so we should plan our time and adjust our attitude to it correctly. For example, when you are on the train, you are supposed to study and work instead of reading newspaper on your way to your company in the morning, because during that period of time you are in the best state of each day. And after work, you are supposed to admit that you are not so tired that you can go on working for half an hour in the evening every other day in order to fulfill it with thing benefit and promote a regular life. From writer’s perspective, proper stress can push people, and the other time for relaxing can be fully used for the sake of it. This part is concerning how to live a full life.
The remaining half is about how to live a relaxing life. First of all, the author advises people to exercise and cultivate their temperament in spare time. A wonderful health condition and lofty sentiment will do good to one’s life. Secondly, we must control our mind, which can let us do the same thing with less time. No matter where we are, if we don’t have any affair, we could concentrate on a subject without a second’s intermission. Until you can tyrannise over your mind, you could have more time and escape the miserable disease--worry. What’s more, after you have the abilities mentioned above, then you should reflect ourselves frequently. At this part, author point out that happiness is unattainable, and the true is that the man who develops reason and conduct to principles has attained the happiness. Last but not least, it is not the lack of beauty in life, but the lack of the eyes to find the beauty. “ The study of cause and effect, while it lessens the painfulness of life, adds to life’s picturesqueness.” To live a relaxing life, we should find beauty and cause by our side. And it would give zest to our business and transform our whole life. This part is about how to live a relaxing life.
The parts left over are author’s advice on how to enhance artistic attainment. Although we may not understand the meaning of the book and music, we can enjoy it. In a word, the author writes his interest joyfully.
From this book, not only do I learn to manage time to do more affairs, but also know how to improve the quality of life. After coming across the book, I can not agree with the writer more. We should save time and try our best to have a relaxing and full life.
