TIME IS MONEY (Value it)
TIME IS MONEY
Imagine
there is a bank that credits your account each morning with N86,400. It carries
over no balance from day to day. Every evening deletes whatever part of the
balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every
cent, of course.
To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.

Imagine
there is a bank that credits your account each morning with N86,400. It carries
over no balance from day to day. Every evening deletes whatever part of the
balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every
cent, of course.
Each of us has such a
bank. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds.
Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest
to good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft. Each day it
opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you
fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no going back.
There is no drawing against the "tomorrow". You must live in the
present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in
health, happiness, and success.
The
clock is running. Make the most of today.
To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade.
To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to a pre-mature baby.

To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to a pre-mature baby.
To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value
of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value
of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who missed the train.
To realize the value of
ONE SECOND, ask a person who just avoided an accident.
To realize the value
of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics.
Treasure every moment
that you have.
And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special;
And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special;
special enough to
spend your time on them.
And remember that time waits for no one.
And remember that time waits for no one.
Yesterday
is history. Tomorrow is mystery.
