It is TIME!

Contrary to what most people think, being “rich” is not about money, rich is about life. And life if you really think of it is made up of one thing, Time.

Everyone has a challenge with time. The details of your situation may be different, but the result is predictably similar. Most of us feel trapped by the relentless, ever-diminishing nature of time, and we often feel doomed to work more than we should to accomplish less than we could. Most people have accepted this as their lot in life, but that is not the way it has to be.

But do you know that managing time is a waste of your time?

It is like chasing the wind, or trying to tie the wind to a tree. While trying to keep up with time and its limitations we miss the most important things in life and often our existence is truncated. The truth is that some things just cannot be done without our slowing down: love, conversation, food, family, friends, leisure, exercising and admiration of nature. In our rush to manage time we are less capable of appreciation, enjoyment, good health, sustained concentration and good memory to mention a few.

What you invest your time in defines who you are. There is no way around this. If you devote sixty, seventy, eighty hours a week to anything, that thing will certainly play a big role in characterising you, often the biggest role.

Imagine there is a bank that credits your account each morning with N86,400. Every evening whatever part of the balance you fail to use during the day is deleted. What would you do? Draw out every kobo and use it well, of course!!! Each of us has such a bank - Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Invest the day's deposits well, or the loss is yours.

I urge you to introspect to see how you could bring the most contentment, happiness and benefit to yourself and others by managing your time better. The clock is running.
