Methodical Service Expedites Success—There are some young men and women who have no method in doing their work. Though they are always busy, they can present but little results. They have erroneous ideas of work, and think that they are working hard, when if they had practiced method in their work, and applied themselves intelligently to what they had to do, they would have accomplished much more in a shorter time. By dallying over the less important matters, they find themselves hurried, perplexed, and confused when they are called upon to do those duties that are more essential. They are always doing, and, they think, working very hard; and yet there is little to show for their efforts.—The Youth’s Instructor, August 31, 1893. {Ev 649.1}

Systematisk arbejde fremmer succes. – Der er nogle unge mænd og kvinder som ikke har system i deres arbejde. Selvom de har travlt, afføder de kun små resultater. De har de har fejlagtige idéer om arbejdet, og tror at de arbejder hårdt, selvom de har praktiseret systematisk arbejde, og har de brugt kræfterne forstandsmæssigt, ville de have udrettet meget mere på kortere tid. Bruges der tid på mindre vigtige ting, finder de at de er fortravlede, rådvilde og forvirrede, skønt de kaldes til at gøre mere vigtige ting. De arbejder altid hårdt og tror det er meget hårdt; og alligevel viser der sig meget lidt af deres anstrengelser. — The Youth’s Instructor, 31. august, 1893.
