每天都要日进日新

知识必令你的灵欢快。(箴言2:10)

周五的清晨,一位来自斯坦福大学的年轻学生,热切地站在著名的采矿工程师路易斯·亚宁(Louis Janin)的面前。他前来求职,亚宁告诉他:“我现在只需要一位速记员。”年轻人热情洋溢地说:“好的,我接受这份工作。”然后他补充道:“但我要等到下周二才能过来。”亚宁同意了。在接下来的周二,这位年轻人如期报到。亚宁问他:“你为什么不能在周二之前回来?”年轻人回答:“因为我需要租一部打字机,并学会如何使用它。”这位年轻的打字员就是赫伯特·胡佛(Herbert Hoover);他积极进取的态度最终把他引进白宫,成为美国的一位总统。走捷径会使你的前途遭受损失。今天不愿意学习,就会导致你对明日的契机毫无准备。技多不压身。收集知识,学习新技能可以建立信心,磨砺思维。成功人士有一共同点:他们从不停止学习!再说,上帝呼召有准备的人,所以你要预备自己。《圣经》说:“侧耳聆听智慧,倾心渴慕悟性。你若呼求洞见,竭力追求悟性,寻它如寻银子,找它如找宝藏……这样,你就明白何为仁义、公平和正直,懂得一切美善之道。因为智慧必进入你心,知识必令你的灵欢快。”(箴言2:2-10)
