Dear Children.
Time is a very special resource that you cannot store it or save it for a while. Everyone gets the exact same amount of time each and every day. If you don’t use your time wisely, you can never get it back. Most people feel like they have too much to do and not enough time. Perhaps the greatest single problem that we all have today is ’time poverty’. We have too much to do in little time. Even most of us feel overwhelmed with responsibilities and activities. This sense of being on a never-ending treadmill can take you into the reactive mode of living. Hence, instead of clearly deciding what to do, you react about the happening around you. You lose all sense of control. You feel that your life is running you, rather than you running your life. Time management, thus, can help you to use time that you do have in better ways.
Bright Stars, you all know time and tide wait for none. Waiting for more free time is a loosing game that almost never results in getting time for what you want. That is why you have to stand back and take stock of yourself and what you’re doing. You have to stop the clock and do some serious thinking about what you want to do. You have to evaluate your activities in the light of what is really important to you. You must master your time rather than becoming a slave to the constant flow of events and demands on your time. Taking action without proper thinking is the cause of every failure. Your ability to think is the most valuable trait that you possess. If you improve the quality of your thinking, you improve the quality of your life, sometimes immediately.
Nice Guys, time is your most precious resource. It is the most valuable thing you have. It is perishable, it is irreplaceable, and it cannot be saved. It can only be reallocated from activities of lower value to activities of higher value. All work requires time. And time is absolutely essential for the important relationships in your life. The very act of taking a moment to think about your time before you spend it will begin to improve your personal time management immediately. Personal time management begins with you. It begins with your thinking through what is really important to you in life. And it only makes sense if you organize it around specific things that you want to accomplish. You need to set goals in proper time in your life. Hence, get up, upgrade your skills, plan properly and work hard, you can be the winner.
