What slogans are there on the wall of Harvard University Library?

Take a nap now, and you will dream; But study at this moment and you will realize your dream.

Take a nap at this moment, you will have a dream; And study at this moment, and you will realize your dream.

Harvard teachers often give students such a warning: if you want to be handy and get the due evaluation at any time and any occasion after entering the society, then you will have no time to bask in the sun while studying at Harvard. A widely circulated motto of Harvard is "Busy with autumn harvest and busy with autumn planting, study, study, and then study."

Einstein once said, "The difference between people lies in their spare time." Some people say that as long as you know how a young man spends his spare time, you can predict his future.

1903, at the new york Mathematical Society, a scientist named Cole successfully proved a mathematical world problem through a convincing operation demonstration. In addition to surprise and praise, people asked Cole, "How long did it take you to demonstrate this topic?" Cole replied, "All Sundays in three years."

Today, which I left uncultivated, is the tomorrow that people who died yesterday prayed for.

William osler, the world-famous founder of Johns Hopkins College, a professor at Oxford University Medical School and knighted by the King of England, was also confused about his future when he was young. Once, when he was reading a book, he saw a sentence that gave him great inspiration. The most important thing is not to see what is vague in the distance, but to do what is clear in front of you.

In this regard, Harvard reminds students that no matter how beautiful tomorrow is, it is better to seize today and do more practical things. Cherish every minute in front of you and you will cherish what you have today. This sentence of Harvard actually reveals a philosophy of life, that is, life should grasp time with a cherished attitude, starting today and starting now.

When you think it is too late, it is the earliest time.

When you think it is too late, it is the earliest time.

Amman was an engineer of new york Port Authority and retired after many years' work. At first, he was very depressed. But he soon became happy because he had a great idea. He wants to open his own engineering company and open office buildings to all corners of the world.

After retiring for more than 30 years, Amman has been practicing bold and novel designs that it has no chance to try at work, and has been creating one classic after another that attracts the world's attention: Addis Ababa Airport, Washington Dulles International Airport, Iranian highway system, buildings in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ... These works are regarded as common examples in textbooks of university architecture and engineering departments, and also witness to Amman's great dream. At the age of 86, he completed his last job-the longest suspension bridge in the world-new york Wei razzano Strait Bridge.

In life, many things are like this. If you are willing to start, know your goals clearly and make up your mind to do something, it will never be too late.

Don't put off today until tomorrow.

Don't put off today until tomorrow.

At Harvard, professors often remind students to manage their time well, and give the following examples:

Sugar Black had no higher education before he entered the US Congress. He squeezes an hour out of his busy schedule every day and goes to the Library of Congress to read various books, including politics, history, philosophy, poetry and so on. For several years, even in the busiest days of parliamentary work, he never stopped. Later, he became a judge of the United States Supreme Court.

Nicholas is a Greek elevator mechanic. He is very interested in modern science. He always spends an hour reading books on nuclear physics after work and before dinner every day. With the accumulation of knowledge, in 1948, he put forward a plan to build a new particle accelerator. This kind of accelerator is cheaper and more powerful than other types of accelerators at that time. He submitted the plan to the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission for testing, and then improved it. This accelerator saved the United States 70 million dollars. Nicholas won a prize of $65,438+0,000 and was hired as a staff member of the Radiology Laboratory of the University of California.

On the road of life, you have stopped, but some people are desperately on their way. Maybe when you are standing, he is still chasing you, but when you turn around, he is out of sight, because he has run ahead of you, and now you need to catch up with him. So, you can't stop, you have to keep moving forward and constantly surpass.

5. Learn like a dog and play like a gentleman.

At Harvard, students not only study nervously, but also participate in various art activities organized by the school, such as concerts, drama performances, dance performances and various art exhibitions. In addition, Harvard holds an art festival every year to enliven students' spare time. These activities full of strong artistic atmosphere not only make students receive artistic education and edification, but also improve their artistic accomplishment and aesthetic ability.

6. The saliva shed now because of laziness and sleepiness will become the tears of tomorrow.

The saliva shed now will become the tears of tomorrow.

You can't be both successful and relaxed. If you choose one, you will definitely give up another ending. If you don't work hard today, you will suffer tomorrow.

Charles stayed at Harvard University for four years, and now he works in a software company in new york, doing his best administrative work. Not long ago, his company was merged by a French company. On the day of signing the merger contract, the new president of the company announced: "We will have a French exam this weekend, and only those who pass the exam can continue to work here."

After the meeting, almost everyone flocked to the library, and then they realized that they should hurry up and take French lessons. Only Charles went straight home as usual. However, after the exam results came out, this hopeless person in everyone's eyes got the highest score. It turned out that when Charles came to this company after graduation, he found that he had many opportunities to deal with the French at work. Not knowing French will greatly limit his work. So he began to use all the available time very early, persisted in studying every day, and finally learned something. Those who crammed and failed the exam were fired.

At Harvard, you will never see students slacking off their time. Years later, when you look back on your dreams, I hope to bring you endless smiles of relief, not tears of regret for wasting time.

7. People who invest in the future are loyal to reality.

People who invest in the future are loyal to reality.

As a world-renowned university, Harvard attaches great importance to having a long-term vision and investing in the future. If you want to invest in the future, you must set your future investment direction, that is, you must set your life goals as soon as possible. Without goals, there can be no development, let alone success.

Harvard University once conducted such a follow-up survey, targeting a group of young people with similar intelligence, education and environmental conditions. The survey results show that: 27% people have no goals; 60% people have vague goals; 10% people have clear but relatively short-term goals; The remaining 3% have clear long-term goals.

In the later years, they marched in their own lives. Twenty-five years later, Harvard conducted a follow-up survey on this group of students again. The results are as follows: 3% people have made unremitting efforts in one direction within 25 years, and almost all of them have become successful people in all walks of life, including many industry leaders and social elites; 10% people, whose short-term goals are constantly realized, become professionals in various fields, and most of them live in the upper and middle classes of society; 60% people live and work in peace and contentment, with no special achievements, and almost all live in the middle and lower classes of society; The remaining 27% people have no goal in life, and their lives are very unsatisfactory. They often complain about others, society and, of course, themselves.

In fact, the only difference between them is that 25 years ago, some of them already knew what they wanted to do most, while others didn't know or were not very clear. This survey vividly illustrates the importance of determining life goals for success in life.
