I understand things which matter most shoudl never be at the mercy of things which matter least, just because they are convenient.
 
Time is the most important resource of life. When we were born, we were given over half-a-million hours of life, and what we do with these half-a-million hours will determine what we become in life.

 

If I ask you to throw timepiece in the dustbin, chances are you won't. Why? You know the value of the timepiece. Timepiece lost can be bought again, but time lost stays lost. Yet, sadly we waste so much time. Value time and you will value life.

 

However, what you do with your time depends on what you want to achieve with your life. You can't aspire to be a world champion in chess without giving enough time to chess. Life is all about focus. When I know what to focus upon, then I will know where to invest my time. That on which you invest time, grows. Give maximum time to mega serials, you achieve maximum interest in mega serials. Give maximum time to develop your talent, the world will applaud you for your talents. You can reach where you want to reach tomorrow, only if you invest enough of your time today in the direction of your tomorrow.

 

From the king to a beggar, from a super success to a super failure, everybody has only 24 hours in a day. All of us have the same time, but time is getting spent in the wrong pockets and hence some re-organization is required. For example, three hours are going into watching TV and one hour into talent development. They have to be re-organized, that is, let three hours go into talent development and one hour to TV. When right quantum of time goes to the right activities, we will get our life right.

 

Time management is not about tools; after all, a fool with a tool is still a fool. Time management is about self-management. It is the ability to say 'Yes' to what is important, and more importantly, the discipline to say 'no' to the 'I don't have to do' aspects of life.

 

The greatest compliment one can give oneself is to be able to say, "I had enough time for everything that I believed was important."

 

There is more time that we can use, if we begin to use it wisely.
