Imagine
there is a bank that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries
over no balance from day to day. Every evening deletes whatever part of the
balance you failed to us 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 lose 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 premature baby.
To
realize the value of one week,
ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To
realize the value of one hour,
ask the lover who are waiting to meet.
To
realize the value of one minute,
ask a person who missed his flight.
To
realize the value of one second,
ask a person who just avoided or escaped an accident.
To
realize the value of a millisecond,
ask the person who won the silver medal in Olympics.
Treasure
every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you shared it with
someone special, special enough to spend your time. And remember that time waits
for no one. Time wasted is life wasted. Invest in your time. Make the best of
now. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why
it’s called the present. Always remind yourself that time is the currency of
your destiny. This is one of the secrets of the journey.
