Class hour "Price of a Minute"
Goals:
1. Expanding the horizons of students.
2. Raising a careful attitude to time.
leader (teacher). Hello dear guys. Today we will talk about time. We will learn what time is, what it is for and how to use it, as well as talk about the history of clock creation, their types and principles of operation.
Who knows how to live by the clock
And appreciate every hour
You don't need it in the morning
Wake up 10 times
And he won't speak
He's too lazy to get up
Exercise, wash your hands
And make the bed.
Will he get dressed on time?
Wash and eat
And before the bell rings
Sit at a desk at school.
Hours are not given for beauty.
The clock tells us the time.
They dictate like this:
Tick-tock, tick-tock.
1stSTUDENT.
Time is precious to a person, and he determines the time by the clock. At different times appearance hours were different. Some expressions are associated with the work of the clock. For example, they say: "A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since then," and we understand that a lot of time has passed. And they say so because in ancient times there were water clocks. They were arranged in the form of two communicating vessels. Time was recognized by how much water flowed from one vessel to another. Like a water clock, sand clocks are also arranged, where sand poured out of the upper vessel into the lower vessel. In Rus', such watches were called bottles, because. were made of glass.
Later, mechanical watches appeared. They are different for us. Time is sometimes determined by the striking of the clock. This is where the expression "beaten hour" comes from.
Teacher.
On October 2, 1918, the main clock of our country, the Kremlin chimes, started talking. Every hour, solemnly and majestically, the beat of this clock is heard. And there is no person who would not know the melodious and exciting chimes located on the Spasskaya Tower of the Kremlin.
(listening to the recording of the chimes)
The clock speaks of time, and it is impossible to stop time, just as it is impossible to kill it, i.e. spend to no avail. Our task is to develop in ourselves a sense of time, the ability to use wisely, for business, every hour, every minute. A working minute is a short period of time, but hours, days, years are added up from minutes.
2nd student.
The work of the clock does not stop for a second, time flows continuously. Place your palms on your chest. You feel your heart beating and beating. It works all our life, without stopping, it works and circulates blood so that each of us is ready to do something useful every minute. Let's sit silently for a minute. See how long a minute is. What do they do in our country in a minute?
3rd student.
It looks like a normal box.
But the real magician
The whole universe lives in it,
Even if it's an ordinary thing.
One hundred stories will tell you
You will be invited to the circus for an hour
Movies will show you-
Each of you has

The refrigerator is a human helper. Every minute, 11 brand new refrigerators are produced in the country.
5th student.
For me to take you
I don't need oats
Feed me gasoline
Give rubber to the hooves
And, raising the dust in a whirlwind,
Will run ... (car)
Our factories produce different cars - trucks, cars, large, small. Almost four brand new cars roll off the assembly lines every minute.

Do you want to sail the oceans
sink into the depths,
Visit many countries
And rush to the moon
Be a brave explorer
In the thickets of centuries -
All edges are open to you
On the pages of books.
The book is printed so quickly that the account must be kept in seconds. Every second, 45 copies of books are published in our country, and 7-8 of them are for you guys. How many books are published per minute for you?
Let's count: 7 * 60 = 420 books (just for you guys), and in total:
45*60=2700(books)
2700 is a library!
2nd student.
Every minute, 1560 pairs of shoes leave the conveyors of our country. What a minute!
3rd student.
What about hours? Merry alarm clocks, important wall clock, small manual and all others! Every minute factories make 77 pieces
And if suddenly all the plants and factories in the country stopped for one minute, the state would lose 50 million rubles. That's how much a minute costs.
What can we do in a minute?
A competition is held, for example, reading (number of words per minute), solving examples (only answers are written
2nd student.
The clock counts the seconds
They keep count of the minutes.
The clock won't let you down
Who saves time.
Hour after hour, year after year -
The clock is always moving forward.
Everything has to be done on time.
Then you will be satisfied.
Friendship with hours is good,
Work, rest
Do your lessons slowly
And don't forget the books!
So that in the evening, going to bed,
When the time comes
You could confidently say:
It was a good day! (S. Baruzdin)
3rd student.
A minute is running fast.
A minute is short
But in a minute you can
Find a star, beetle,
The solution of the problem….
And a rare mineral
Which is still
Nobody opened.
Open in a minute
Rockets from the Earth.
But to outer space
They could fly
Scientists have given
Decades of work
And from childhood astronauts
Dreamed of flying.
Let the minute be short
Let it run very fast!
Big, bold dream
It can fit in!
4th student
We know that time is extensible.
It depends on
What kind of content
You fill it.
He has blockages
And sometimes it flows
unloaded, empty,
Hours and days in vain.
Let the intervals be even
What separates our days
And putting them on the scales
Finding long minutes
And very short hours.
Let's remember folk proverbs and sayings about time
(Studentscalled their)
You have to be able to value your time and the time of others. Remember a good rule:
When starting any business, learn to calculate the time: how much it will take for lessons, how much for classes in circles, for helping parents, for a walk, etc.
Divide your day
Go to bed early and wake up early
Exercise in the morning
Lessons do not teach immediately as you come from school, but after an hour or two
Relax outdoors after school
Do lessons in the afternoon
Late in the evening do not study, because. brain is tired
Do your homework first

Help your parents with the housework.
They say that the absolute order in the house and the healthy psyche of his mistress are completely incompatible things. Those who can afford an au pair are happy to do so, and those who can't are inventive. For example, the American Marla Scilly in the late 90s came up with a system of reference household FlyLady, which has become popular all over the world.
For millions of us
With her system, the American managed to turn women continuously crawling around the house with a rag into goddesses fluttering over it, and in absolute purity. " The target audience» FlyLady - working, busy or not very organized representatives of the fair sex, who are unable to maintain a constant order in their home. Women who tend to put all their strength and free time on the altar of cleaning, and still suffer from guilt - after all, their life has not become ideal.
How is this miraculous system organized? Sites (English and translated) contain the main methodological principles, and the daily e-mail newsletter encourages hostesses to take concrete actions. The site promises that the FlyLady-style approach to housekeeping will allow you to clean up your household in just 31 days. own house and form good habits - those that will support it constantly. Self-organization and self-discipline - these are the "whales" on which the real "flying lady" rests.
If you want to join the system and become a “jet hostess”, the following sites are waiting for you: flylady.org.ua , flylady.ru , ladybee.ru and LJ community flylady-en.livejournal.com. There is a description of the basic principles of FlyLady, tasks for the week, planners, an e-mail newsletter with tasks for every day and forums for like-minded people to communicate.
Do you want to support Russian housewives? reellady.com- a resource dedicated to the first Russian system cleaning - "The path of purity." On this site you can learn about FlyLady alternatives - PAZ and Shining House systems.
How it works?
The name Fly Lady is an abbreviation of Finaly Love Yourself, which translates as "Love yourself at last." Ease, getting pleasure from work, the ability to leave strength and time for yourself beloved - that's what the "flayushki" achieve with their regular housework. Here are their basic rules:
- no perfectionism. Exhausting work for results and the desire for perfect order develop only hatred for cleaning and often a desire to postpone it by any means. Weekend general cleaning has nothing to do with FlyLady.
- clear planning. The first assistant to the "flying hostess" is a home diary, also known as a planner. The more household and near-home affairs you think through and prescribe, the better for you.
- careful attitude In time. If you clean your shoes immediately after returning from the street, it will take much less time than if you postpone this issue for several hours. The same applies to cooker- easier to wash it immediately after cooking.
- using a timer."Flyushka" does not work for the result, its task is not to do it, but to do it. She detects exactly 15 minutes and puts things in order in any one place. When the timer beeps, cleaning is over.
- maintenance in order first of the hostess, and then at home. When in the morning the hostess is combed, made up, dressed in such a way that it is not a shame to open at any moment front door unexpectedly arriving guests, then the housework is done faster. Because order disciplines. In addition, the author of the system, Marla Seeley, recommends using lace-up shoes (ideally, sneakers) for home use. Because it is difficult to immediately throw them off and lie down on the sofa.
- cleaning frequency. The system offers to clean up the house every day for 15 minutes. At first glance, this is not enough at all, but regularity works wonders! According to FlyLady, the house is divided into zones (kitchen, nursery, hallway, bedroom), one week is devoted to only one zone. By the weekend, the selected zone shines, because in total more than an hour was spent on it!
- creating an island of purity- a place that is constantly in perfect order. FlyLady proposes to make a kitchen sink such an island. You need to clean it every day until it has time to become dirty (clean even clean!). This is how love for housework is formed, mood is lifted and motivation appears to clean the rest of the house.
"Flyushki", as they are affectionately called in Russia, have their own unique terminology:
rituals(in other translations - " routines") - daily housework, which is entered in a special list. Initially, it may consist of two or three items. Gradually, the list will be supplemented and will help you make the most efficient use of time. The main routine is in the evening: lightly clean the apartment so that it is ready for the next day, think over tomorrow (prepare clothes, get food to defrost, look at your planner and the child’s schedule), take time for yourself. For those who are especially tired, there is a truncated version: clean the sink, prepare clothes for tomorrow, brush your teeth.
littering- active fight against rubbish. The apartment can be made noticeably cleaner by throwing away 27 unnecessary things (a read magazine, a lonely sock, an old toothbrush, etc.). Littering also affects electronic trash - unnecessary files, e-mail and SMS messages. We do this for 5 minutes a day until there is something to throw away.
Hot Spots (hotspots or hotpoints) - places where things accumulate at a catastrophic rate. For example, a bedside table, a work table or a table in the hallway. Turning off a hotspot means taking a couple of minutes to clean up the mess at its initial stage, while it has not yet become terrifying.
How do I live by the systemflylady
Even before I was familiar with the Flylady system, I already shared its main principle: the rejection of idealism. My house was in order. Almost complete. That is, the dust from the monitor was wiped off by the one to whom it interfered more, and the plastic containers were organized on the shelf by the one from whom they fell out. So I decided to try new strategy cleaning and see if you can get more order with less effort. It turned out that not all the rules of the system can be easily followed, but those that I liked really took root. And now my day (according to the rules of FlyLady) looks something like this. I get up in the morning and… don't put on my shoes! I do not have and will never have this Western habit of walking around the house with shoes on, but here is a pedicure. Two year old daughter he takes it with a bang (“Mom, what beautiful nails you have!”), And I like to demonstrate it to my husband. Here I am definitely in flight, or rather, in flight.
I go into the kitchen. Already from the threshold you can see - the sink shines. This habit did not want to form for a long time: it was difficult for me to force myself to clean something that was not yet dirty. But if you clean the sink every evening, it simply does not have time to get dirty! So I wipe it lightly with a cleaning agent.
Clothes for the child in the garden are ready. Truly, to do everything possible in the evening - fine rule! According to the precepts of FlyLady, in the evening I put lunch for my husband in a lunch box, in the evening I collect a bag in Gym. Now I even make coffee in the evening. Five minutes in the evening save fifteen minutes in the morning!
Hotpoints are my great pride, because I was able to handle them. My most "hot spot" of the mess was the chair on the loggia. Previously, I constantly folded dried laundry there (it dries right next to it), and left it until the moment of ironing. So it could lie for a week, and ten days. Now, on the advice of FlyLady, unironed linen is given a separate place in the closet on the loggia, where it does not spoil the view and my mood.
I eliminated the hotpoint on the windowsill, where packages with napkins, vitamins, toothpicks were constantly accumulating. I take apart the shelf in the hallway every 3-4 days, until it has time to finally clog. General cleaning I canceled it altogether, because every day I do some “little thing” with my daughter. Or I sort out the blockage without it - however, not in 15 minutes, as the flyushki recommend, but in 19 - that's exactly how much the "Bremen Town Musicians" go on.
The kitchen is here Augean stables my apartment. From here you can throw away not 27 things, but all 100. Here are two- and three-liter jars, rubber and metal lids for them. What are they doing in my house if I never prepare for the winter? I'm sending my mother-in-law! Here are almost intact packages of cookies - I don’t even remember who brought them. In my family, this is not eaten, but it is a pity to throw it away right away. Ruthlessly in the trash! Space in the kitchen cabinets became noticeably larger in just three minutes, plus bonuses - a pound of coffee from Turkey and a package of dried figs from Kazakhstan were accidentally discovered.
Disposal is the easiest for me - at some point you find that today in the house there are only a couple of small things to throw away, the rest is necessary, and lies in its place. However, from time to time I give in and put up for sale something that cannot be thrown away at all, for example, children's toys and clothes. Then things linger in the house for another couple of weeks.
But planning is my stumbling block. I can’t at all accustom myself to write down, I keep everything in my head, and some little thing constantly eludes me. For example, I forget to take meter readings in time - (after all, you can’t cancel the humanitarian mindset). In general, the apartment has become much cleaner, with a persistent feeling that I practically do not clean anything in it.
Lifehacking is a relatively new online community of smart guys who make life easier for themselves and others with simple ideas. Easily and simply separate the yolk from the protein using plastic bottle or in a tricky way put more things on the hangers in the closet. In a word, these are funny and outstanding tips for every day, designed to facilitate the solution of everyday issues.
Here and now!
Like any theoretical system, translated into practice, FlyLady contains more and less applicable advice. But every woman can definitely find something useful for herself. For example, for me main benefit FlyLady systems - hotpoint theory. And if you persistently explain to your family several times that one cannot make out what three or four people regularly litter, the result will be for sure! In addition, the FlyLady system reminds: “Your house did not become dirty overnight, and it will not become clean overnight. Small steps will lead you to desired result". Get to work, flying mistresses!
Oh grief! Life has passed and time has flown by
In the darkness of shame, weakness and laziness.
And people found the way to salvation
And they go slowly towards high goals.
Who, if not a student, should save their time?! Time management is the duty of every believer, and for the seeker of knowledge, it is the main concern and the basis of success in his life of learning. And if he manages to use his time correctly and saves it, he will succeed and achieve his goal, and if not, then he will fail and not succeed.
The seeker of knowledge is a merchant, and his capital is time. But the merchant who squanders his capital right and left is stupid and unlucky. Therefore, he should think about what he spends his time on? And let everyone ask himself for every minute, for every second.
Basic principles of time management
The first duty of the seeker of knowledge is to respect his time and his rational use. Our predecessors, may Allah be pleased with them, treated their time most carefully, for they knew its price better than others. Al-Hasan al-Basri said: "I found people who save their time more than you save your dirhams and dinars!"
Therefore, the predecessors tried in every possible way to spend their time in the study of knowledge. ‘Umar ibn “Abdul” Aziz said: “Indeed, day and night every time they take something valuable from you, so work day and night!”
They said: "Time is like a sword: if you do not overcome it, it will overcome you." They always tried to become better, so that today would be better than yesterday, and tomorrow better than today.
Every day, every hour, every moment, they strived to acquire useful knowledge, to do a good deed, to overcome their passions or to benefit someone, so that their labors would not be in vain and would not turn out to be vain and in vain. They considered it a manifestation of ingratitude and irreverence to spend time without any benefit for themselves and others, if they did not increase their knowledge, did not strengthen their faith, and did not do good deeds. Ibn Mas "ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said:" I do not regret anything like the day when the sun went down, life became shorter, and the things I did on that day did not become better.
The seeker of knowledge should save his time, devoting every moment of it to something that will benefit him or teach him something that is needed, try to increase his knowledge every day.
The words of one of the predecessors are transmitted: “If a day comes when I cannot increase my knowledge in order to win the mercy of Allah, then there is no blessing for me that the sun has risen on this day.”
Let every moment for the seeker of knowledge be more precious than any jewels, if people cherish every hour, then the student must cherish every second, every moment. If people compete by accumulating and accumulating wealth, then he should try to be ahead of the times by accumulating useful knowledge. How great is the difference between the accumulation of wealth and the accumulation of knowledge! In a word, if a student manages to fully use his time, he will succeed on the path to knowledge, and may Allah help him!
The student should always try to compose detailed plan their studies and the plan for memorizing their lessons and strictly observe it.
Time is priceless, because life cannot be reversed. It has its distinctive features, which we need to know well, and based on this, learn how to use it correctly. Here are some of them:
1. Time is fleeting.
2. The time that has already passed cannot be returned or replaced by anything.
3. Time is the most valuable thing a person has. Therefore, the student should not waste his precious time on useless activities, do not abuse what is lawful in terms of eating, drinking, talking, etc.
It is not fitting for one whom Allah has rewarded with knowledge and intelligence to waste his time in disobedience to Allah, to spend it in amusements and idleness. A prudent person will not wish for such a thing for himself, and from this a prudent person will resort to Allah ... Prudence, once again, prudence is necessary for a person in order to understand the full value of his life and spend it only in obedience to Allah Almighty. And will he not wish to make the book his friend, which he will not exchange for any of the people who are ready to become his interlocutor? And this is a great benefit, which is known to reasonable and pure soul People.
The most serious obstacle for a person, preventing him from enjoying the present moment and today, is delaying and postponing his good deeds. And this continues until the word “I will” almost becomes his motto and way of life.
A man from the tribe "Abd al-Qais was told: "Give us good advice." He replied: "Beware of the word "I will."
The student must fill his day useful knowledge, good deeds and not put it off until tomorrow, lest his present slip away from him and turn into an irrevocable past. He must sow today in order to reap the fruits tomorrow, otherwise he will have to repent when repentance will no longer help ...
Imam al-Hasan al-Basri said: “Beware of postponing things for later, because you live today, not tomorrow. And if you live to tomorrow, then spend it the same way as today, and if not, then you won’t have to regret what you missed today.
The seeker of knowledge must take advantage of the days of his youth and its golden times. Wisdom says: "Study time - from the cradle to the grave." It is believed that the most excellent time for studying is the flowering of youth, the time of "suhoor" (dawn time) and the time between two night prayers (i.e. evening and night).
The hadith says:
(لن تزول قدما عبد يوم القيامة حتى يسال عن اربع خصال: عن عمره فيما افناه , وعن شبابه فيما ابلاه, وعن ماله من اين اكتسبه وفيم انفقه وعن علمه ماذا عمل به)
“On the Day of Resurrection, the servant (of Allah) will not budge until he is asked about four things: about his life - how did he spend it? - and about his youth - how did he spend it? and about his wealth - from where did he get it and what did he spend it on? - and about knowing it - how did he use it?
Thus, he will be asked about his whole life in general and about his early years in particular.
Youth is only a part of life, but it is especially valuable because it is the heyday vitality and firm determination, as well as a period of human strength in the interval between two periods of weakness: the weakness of infancy and the weakness of old age. Youth is a time of activity ... youth is a quickly leaving guest, and if man of sense fails to use it, then his heart will be torn with grief.
Therefore, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
(اغتنم خمسا قبل خمس, شبابك قبل هرمك, وصحتك قبل سقمك, وغناك قبل فقرك,وفراغك قبل شغلك, وحيا تك قبل موتك)
“Take advantage of five things before the arrival of five others: your youth to old age, your health to illness, your wealth to poverty, your free time to employment and your life to death"(Al-Hakim).
Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said: “The Great and Powerful Allah gave his slaves knowledge in their youth, and all goodness lies in youth.” Hafsa bint Sirin said: “Young people! Work hard, because it is only in youth that things are done. And were not the companions of the Messenger of Allah, who believed in him, supported him, helped him and followed the light of the religion sent down to him, most of them young?
And he who fails to take advantage of his youth will repent of his old age. One scientist said to one young man: “Work until the time comes when you can’t do it. I want to do a lot today, but I can’t anymore.” Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Study religion while you're young."
Let the seeker of knowledge read the following words - and let them be an example for him. Ibn al-Jawzi said: "I watched people occupying high position, and saw that most of them lose a lot during their greatness. Some of them in their youth wallow in sin, others neglect the search for knowledge, others indulge in excessive pleasures. But in old age they all repent, when the former sins can no longer be corrected, when the strength has dried up, and the merits are forgotten. Their old age passes in sorrow and sadness. If the elder comes to his senses in his former sins, he will say: “How I regret those sins that I committed!”. And if he doesn’t come to his senses, he will begin to regret those delights that he can no longer return.
And the one who devoted his youth to the search for knowledge, in his old age gratefully reaps the fruits of what he has sown, and enjoys writing down the knowledge that he has collected in books. He not only does not consider that he has lost any bodily benefits, but also enjoys the knowledge he has acquired.
Free time and health
The good that many people neglect, do not properly appreciate and do not thank for it, is health and free time. It is reported from the words of Ibn "Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both, that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
(نعمتان مغبون فيهما كثير من الناس الصحة والفراغ)
“Many people are deprived of two favors: health and free time”(Al-Bukhari). This means that many people do not use these blessings to do good deeds, but use them to commit sins. Free time should be understood as being unoccupied with worldly affairs and problems that distract a person from his business. eternal life.
Free time never remains free, it will inevitably be filled with either good or evil. And whoever cannot captivate his soul with righteous deeds, that soul will be captivated by evil deeds. Happy is he who spends his time in good and righteous deeds, and woe to him who spends his time in bad and vicious deeds.
One righteous person said: “Time free from worldly concerns is a great blessing. And if a person shows ingratitude for the benefit rendered to him by giving free rein to his passions and following his desires, then Allah will violate the well-being of his soul and deprive him of that spiritual purity and peace that he had.
In a word, the seeker of knowledge does not waste his life and does not waste a second of his time on matters not connected with knowledge. As necessary, he allocates time for eating, drinking, sleeping, resting after tiring work, performing his duties in relation to family members, a guest, to earn a living, and also breaks away from studies in case of illness or for other reasons that interfere with studies. Some of the predecessors did not stop their studies, even if they had a slight illness or indisposition. Knowledge was their medicine, and they continued to study as best they could.
Taking advantage of every opportunity
There are many worldly concerns, and our needs in this life are endless, so the seeker of knowledge needs to resort to some tricks in order to rationally use the time to which we do not attach special significance and we lose for the sake of imaginary politeness or out of habit.
a) During meals, while doing housework, as well as in the car, the student can read prayers and adhkars, listen to recordings of the Koran or sermons.
b) He can repeat the Quran or the lesson he has learned as he walks down the street, following the example of our pious scholars. When al-Khatib al-Baghdadi walked along the road, he always read. One of the predecessors, giving advice to his friends, said: “When you leave me, then disperse: perhaps one of you will read the Koran on the way, and if you all go together, you will start talking to each other.”
c) Wherever the student goes, always take a textbook with him. Praise be to Allah, in our time many books are printed in small format, which greatly facilitates this task. The main thing is that the student should have a desire to take advantage of the time that many people simply lose, even many of those who seek knowledge.
Careful attitude of predecessors to time
The seeker of knowledge should constantly become acquainted with how the predecessors used their time, reflect on their way of life whenever he discovers in himself laziness and negligence. How did Ibn Hajar and other scholars like him manage to achieve what they have achieved and do what they have done? Some will say they were brilliant people, they were accompanied by the help of Allah, and their life was blessed. And this is certainly true. But is a blessing given to a person for no reason? And is it possible to grieve, following in the footsteps of others, instead of striving to deserve better share and change your fate?
The one who is concerned with how to kill time and spend it in any way with benefit or without benefit will never receive the blessings and help of Allah. And if someone asks him for something important, he will apologize and say that he does not have time. How often people complain about the lack of time and the transience of years, but these are only those who waste their time and ruin their lives. And some even admit that they are killing time, but do not suspect that in fact, they are killing their own lives.
The height of aspirations and the greatness of goals encourage a person to value time, since this is his life. And if what one strives for is dear, then it is easy to part with what one sacrifices along the way. Yes, our predecessors were extremely frugal with time and tried not to miss a single second without using it to acquire knowledge. They even regretted the time they spent eating. Al-Khalil said: "The most painful time for me is the time when I eat."
It is reported that Salim ibn Ayyub ar-Razi followed his every breath and never spent time without use: he either copied books, or taught something, or read ... One day he went to his home, and when he returned, he said : “On the way, I read one juz (1/30 part of the Koran)” ... Once his pencil became dull and while he put it in order, he moved his lips. And it was possible to understand what he was reading even when he was just sharpening a pencil, even here not wanting to waste time in vain.
Ibn "Akil said:" I try in every possible way to reduce the time for eating, that I even prefer to eat a cake and drink it with water, because I need to chew it less, and I have more time to read or write down something useful, what else He also said: "I never spend a single minute of my life without use. Even when my tongue is no longer able to learn and discuss anything, and my eyes to read, I think, straining my thoughts, lying down and resting "When I get up, it always comes to my mind what to write. And in my eighty years I feel a greater thirst for knowledge than when I was twenty."
The seeker of knowledge needs a precise and thoughtful system, which he must strictly follow in order to make the most of his time. After all, disorder, carelessness and spontaneity are the biggest enemies of the seeker of knowledge. And no one needs the distribution of their time as much as students, because they have a huge burden of care, and it even seems to them that there are more things to do than they have time to do.
And the seeker of knowledge should allocate his time between obligatory and other matters so that one does not interfere with the other, insignificant matters do not interfere with important ones, important ones with the most important, and those unconditioned by time - limited in time. Urgent tasks should be done first, and non-urgent tasks after. What is limited in time should always be done on time.
1. Drawing up a detailed plan
The student should always endeavor to draw up a detailed plan for his studies and a plan for the memorization of his lessons, and strictly adhere to it. And it does not matter if from time to time he will make changes to it in accordance with new requirements.
In studies, as well as in trade and military campaigns, a person should draw up a plan of work. A student who sets a clear schedule for his day and then sets to work relieves himself of many worries and acquires a significant boost of energy and diligence. In fact, the plan that a person draws up for himself and carries out from day to day soon becomes habitual and a simple matter. In other words, when we need to solve several issues, then most likely we will not cope with some of them, because one issue prevents the solution of another, and the solution of each of them prevents us from completely surrendering to the solution of any one of them. Thus, we uselessly pass from one question to another immediately after we have briefly considered it, casually putting aside the solution of each of them ...
A specific place allotted for classes is no less important than a specific time for this. Have the student have a personal desk and chair for intellectual work only. And after a while this place will symbolize a lesson for him.
Many believe that the secret of success lies in a person's accustoming himself to discipline and constant work. One of the great doctors, William Osler, asked a group of students the following question: "How can you make the most efficient use of your talents with the least amount of effort?" Then he himself answered the question posed: “I can do this by cultivating the spirit of discipline in myself. I say "education" because it will be quite difficult for many of you to accustom yourself to it. There are people who, from birth, have received a mentality predisposed to discipline. But at the same time, there are people with a different mindset who must declare to themselves long war to eradicate the innate tendency to disorder and carelessness in business...
This appeal is dedicated in particular to the young, since they are still at the beginning of their life path and the future of each of them depends on the habits that they develop in themselves during this delicate period of life. It is quite easy to observe the usual system in any business, but to introduce it into the routine of your Everyday life not easy. The student should determine for each part of his day an obligatory task that he will be engaged in at this time, and through exercise and practice develop the ability to concentrate.
As for the detailed presentation of the individual items of the daily routine, everyone determines them for himself. First of all, it is necessary to determine the amount of time that the student is going to devote to studying, but let him not make too “ideal” plans. It will be better if he carefully and fairly evaluates his mental capacity, without overestimating yourself and without belittling your capabilities. Then you should choose for yourself the time during the day when he would prefer to engage in mental work, being sure that regularly and daily at this time he will have the opportunity to do so. It is also important to choose for your studies different times during the day. This is not bad, provided that the student makes it a habit to consistently study at this time.
In addition, the student needs to determine how much time to devote to each subject and schedule classes in accordance with the time frame. Of course, he will not be able to determine in advance exactly how long it will take him to study each subject or when he expects to start the next lesson, because educational process can't stay that tough. But still, it is better if every day he roughly determines how much time it will take him to do one or another lesson, and draws up a schedule on the basis of which he will build his classes. Thus, the student will get rid of the question of which lesson to start with, and stop worrying about the things that he had to do.
But most students don't know how to manage their time. In fact, knowing in detail how to manage one's time is today's first significant step for students towards a lifestyle based on the most efficient daily schedule...
It is very important to think about the reasons for wasting your time and think carefully about how you can make up for every lost minute.
2. Compliance with the daily routine
The seeker of knowledge should not put off until tomorrow what he has to do today. After all, tomorrow he will have other business and duties that will not allow him to do yesterday's business.
I do not put off tomorrow, succumbing to laziness,
What can I do today
Because tomorrow is the day of the one who is weak and in action
Can't do exactly anything.
If the day passes, then the student will take with him everything that was that day. And if he postpones his business today, then tomorrow he will have to complete the work in two days.
Omar ibn "Abdul" Aziz was told: "Delay it until tomorrow." To which he replied: “It’s hard for me to cope with the affairs of one day, but what will happen if two days of work pile up on me ?!” If the seeker of knowledge always fulfills the duties and deeds that he has set for the day, he will gain peace and fully complete his work.
3. Business should be started early in the morning
In the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) it is said:
(اللهم بارك لامتي فى بكورها)
“O Allah! Bless my ummah in their deeds, which they begin early in the morning!”. Ibn Omar, commenting on the words "they start early in the morning", said: "they come early to study and to the mosque in order to take a seat in the front row."
The first part of the day is a blessed time for the traveler, when he travels great distances. But many seekers of knowledge today miss this opportunity to receive the blessing promised to them after the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) uttered the words of prayer (du "a)! Moreover, some of them wake up a few minutes before sunrise, hastily perform morning prayer, then continue to sleep again, as if they had not heard such a hadeeth!
4. A small deed steadily done is better than a big but fickle one.
The hadith says:
(احب الاعمال الى الله تعالى ادومها وان قل)
“Allah loves most of all those deeds that are done with the greatest constancy, even if they are few.”(Al-Bukhari and Muslim).
Imam an-Nawawi said: “This hadeeth encourages constancy in deeds, and it also says that a small but steadily done deed is better than a significant but impermanent one ... A small deed that is constantly done brings much more benefit than significant but not permanent.
Therefore, the student needs to allocate his time, both day and night, in accordance with his opportunities and conditions, and specifically allocate some part of the time for a certain business, which he will steadily engage in daily, for example, read a certain amount of dhikr and salavat. Allocate the other part of the time for other activities, for example, for the study of religious sciences.
5. Solitude
The seeker of knowledge should sometimes give preference to solitude, because nothing reminds one of eternal life like loneliness ... And a person, walking around the market for some time, under the impression of what he sees, forgets what he knows. Solitude, on the other hand, allows a person to calm the soul, gather strength, think about the consequences and stock up on everything necessary for this.
If we look at those who were able to take advantage of the short moments of their lives and achieve such results and fruits of their labor, which causes surprise and amazement, we will see that they were friends only with hardworking, diligent, outstanding and smart people who valued their time as much as they valued their lives, because time is life.
And friendship with such outstanding, diligent and cherishing every minute and second people had a serious impact on the activities of such famous people like Imam Ibn Jarir at-Tabari, Ibn "Akil al-Hanbali, Ibn" Asakir ad-Dimashki, Ibn al-Qayyim, Ibn an-Nafis, al-Mizzi, al-Dhahabi, Ibn Hajar and other scholars like them who left behind a colossal, invaluable legacy.
Imam Ibn "Akil al-Hanbali said:" In my youth, Allah in every possible way protected me from sins and limited all my love to love of knowledge and its owners. I never communicated with lovers of fun and was friends only with the same students as myself " The one who is devoted to knowledge, who is accompanied by the help of Allah and who strives for the sublime, you can only see in the company of meritorious, diligent, wise, intelligent and knowledgeable people. him to become like them, or at least like them.
Friendship with such people will teach the seeker of knowledge to be ahead of time, and friendship with bad people will teach him to lose it fruitlessly. Abdullah ibn Mas "ud, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "A person is judged by his friend, because he takes as his friend only his like." And may Allah save us from friendship with bad people.
6. Mental rest and peace
The seeker of knowledge spends all his time studying, but from time to time he needs rest so that later he will not be forced to interrupt all his studies. After all, the human soul does not tolerate monotony. Abdallah ibn Mas "ud said: "Truly, the human soul has aspiration and enthusiasm. But it is also characterized by lethargy and lack of interest. Get down to business when the soul is striving, and let it rest when interest is lost."
Time should be distributed in such a way that there is also time for rest, because after a long work, the soul of a person begins to feel disgust for it, and gets tired just like the body gets tired. "Ali said: "... and it is not proper for a Muslim to burden himself so much that it takes away his strength and prevents him from continuing what he was doing."
At the same time, the student should not overburden himself, so that he does not have a feeling of fatigue and disgust. And, perhaps, he will hate studying and will no longer be able to overcome himself. Let him be moderate in such matters. Every person knows himself better.
However, the rest of the seeker of knowledge is different from the rest of other people, because at any time he tries to acquire some benefit:
a) some predecessors used breaks during the lessons in which they recited hadith to pronounce the words of remembrance of the Great and Mighty Allah (dhikr). Al-Khatib al-Baghdadi, talking about the rules of conduct of a muhaddith (a person telling hadith; an expert and transmitter of hadith), said: “When he stops telling hadith during the Majlis, while resting, he pronounces the words of remembrance of Allah Almighty. So did many the greatest people from the predecessors.
b) If a student is tired of studying one subject, then he should take up the study of another, because this is better than stopping classes altogether. You can move from one form of occupation to another in order to change the type of activity.
The soul that is tired is not capable of anything,
And you change its state from one to another.
c) Every time a student feels energized, he should study. And the study of stories, biographies and stories from the life of predecessors, reading wise sayings and verses can be postponed for another time, when he feels tired in himself, and useful verses should be chosen, such as verses praising our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), poetic collections divan ash-Shafi "and divan Abu al - "Atakhiya and other poets who glorified abstinence and detachment (zuhd).

Days come to us like friends in disguise, bringing priceless gifts from an unknown hand; but if we do not use their offerings, they silently go away and never return. Each successive morning brings us more and more gifts, but if we have not been able to use those that were brought yesterday and the third day, we become less and less able to use them, until, finally, the ability to appreciate them and use them completely disappears.
Time is the raw material from which we can make whatever we want
The very hours that you carelessly squander, in case beneficial use could ensure your success. What majestic monuments would be built by young men who were in adverse conditions, in such wasted passages of time, which are completely unappreciated by many of us?!
Michael Faraday at first could do physical experiments only in the free hours that he had left from the bookbinding trade. Humphry Davy gained fame by doing physics in his spare moments in the attic of the drugstore where he worked. “There is no such thing or occupation,” Witenbach says, “that would not allow a person to devote some time every day scientific pursuits of his youth."
"The reference to the lack of time to replenish our education," says Matthew Arnold, "will immediately prove unfounded, as soon as we seriously begin to examine our distribution of time." "As I have observed," says Burke, "indolence fills a man's time much more, and makes him less master of it, than any occupation."
What man is so busy that he does not have one hour a day to complete his education? And meanwhile, what miracles would be performed in "one hour daily"!
One hour daily taken away from a waste of time and put to good use, would enable a person of even mediocre ability to master any branch of science completely and would make an ignorant person educated after a few years. In one hour, twenty pages can be read attentively, which amounts to more than seven thousand pages or seventeen large volumes. "One Hour a Day":
for twelve years will more than balance the time devoted to study during a four-year course at the university;
can make all the difference between a mere existence and a useful, happy life;
can and did unknown person famous, useful, benefactor of mankind.
Now imagine the great opportunity that lies in two, four or even six hours a day, wasted uselessly by young people of both sexes in the restless pursuit of entertainment and amusements!
Many great people have created their fame by taking advantage of such periods of time that most people squander completely to no purpose:
Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote her famous book"Uncle Tom's Cabin" in the intervals between numerous household chores;
longfellow translated "Hell" in snatches of ten minutes a day while his coffee was brewing, and continued to work in this way for several years until the end of the work;
Hugo Miller, working diligently as a bricklayer, he found time to read scientific books and write down the information he found on the stone blocks with which he had to deal;
Berne wrote many of his best poems while working on the farm;
Lincoln studied law in his spare hours, when he was engaged in surveying, and passed the initial stages without any help while guarding a warehouse;
John Stuart Mill wrote most of his most famous works while serving as a clerk for the East India Company;
Charles Frost, famous shoemaker from Vermont, decided to devote one hour a day to scientific pursuits and as a result became one of the most eminent mathematicians in the United States, acquiring, moreover, enviable fame in other fields of knowledge.
Great people have always been very economical in terms of time:
Cicero said: "The time that others devote to spectacles and entertainment, or even mental and bodily peace, I give to the study of philosophy";
days Alexander Humboldt they were so busy with various things that he studied science at night or early in the morning, when others were still sleeping;
Gladstone he constantly carried a book in his pocket with the aim that some unforeseen free moment would not be lost in vain.
What a reproach such a life is for many young people of both sexes who waste whole months and even years!
Time is money. Of course, we shouldn't be too mean to him, but we shouldn't waste hours just as we don't waste money. It has been well said that wealth lost can be reacquired by activity and frugality, lost knowledge by study, lost health by abstemious living and reading; but lost time is gone forever. With the loss of an hour - however bad it may be in itself - the worst thing is not the loss of time itself, but the squandering of vitality, character in a disorderly life. Due to laziness, the nerves seem to "rust".
Every day there is a small life, and our whole life is just a repeated day.
Time is fleeting, the same moment cannot be experienced twice, we cannot see time, but we can feel it through our old age or maturity, experience and wisdom. Time flies imperceptibly, it seemed that we were just going to first grade, and after a while our children go to first grade, and we don’t realize how quickly time flies, we don’t realize that life flies before our eyes, and we even sometimes we can't take part in it. Time and life - two different words but they are so tightly connected. This is the gap that is allocated to us for actions, not for existence, but for actions. Life gives us time for any actions and deeds, and time gives us life, as soon as time ends, we die.
And so, what is the attitude of a person to the time that is allocated to him? Someone lives in the past, someone thinks only about the future, not realizing the present, and someone lives only for today, day after day one day. Each person has his own philosophy, but whatever it is, you need to take time more seriously and cherish every moment of life. And yet to be found golden mean, moderately recall the past, moderately think about the future and live in the present, getting everything from it. And someone, realizing the transience of time, runs through life, trying to catch up or even get ahead of time, not noticing all the delights of life. Life should be tasted like wine, capturing all the notes of taste.
And so, it is necessary to live somehow, having time to do everything, moreover, without wasting time in vain. Many complain that they do not have time for this or that, someone wants to learn how to play the guitar, and someone wants to do cooking, but there is no time for all this. Home, family, work, friends, study - some have it all together, while others have it in parts. In order to be in time for everything, the first thing you need to do is plan a day in the evening or in the morning of a new day, it’s easier to live, and you can save enough time for some other lesson. A person's attitude to planning is not particularly developed, I draw such a conclusion, looking at my friends. Someone will forget something. Now there are many different organizers, both electronic and paper, diaries are very popular - just write down or enter what you need to do the next day, or throughout the day, and make this list not randomly, but in order, so that you can quickly do everything. And so, now it will become much easier for you, and you have saved time, and everything will be in order.
One more piece of advice, don't waste your time on various unnecessary activities, spend only on activities that will bring real benefit to your future or on activities that support and keep your present in order. Pleasure, of course, is an integral part of our lives, but some of them do not bring any benefit, that is, we waste our time in vain. Our entertainment can go to the provision of our present or the creation of the future.
What are we spending our time on? What are we spending our lives on? Do we have goals we are striving for? Our work refers only to providing our life with money, otherwise, where will the money come from? I'm talking about the life purpose that is given to us from above. Yes, of course, someone can do what he is destined to do and earn money from it. Means, life goal is both entertainment and a method of making money.
A person has a different attitude to the time intended for him, not understanding that he also relates to his life, and no matter how he relates, it should be so, because not everyone is supposed to value their time. Be that as it may, do not waste time in vain, appreciate it, because by wasting time in vain, we lose some piece of our life.
