APPLICATIONS OF TIME
“The greatest wealth of all time is the time and
money you spent on yourself.”
Everything has its own law, so do the time.
Having said so, and because of the luxury of
time we have in-hand now, the right investment
can be made, but people are divided into the
following;
• Some will waste time on things that they
cannot control;
• Others will enjoy chit chatting in mindless
and useless discussions;
• Others will whine from home quarantine
and not go out to cafés;
• Many will watch the news or follow a TV
series; and
• Wise people will make the right investment
in themselves.
Therefore, regardless of whether we fall into
any of the above categories, we, eventually, all
need self-discipline. Self-discipline is defined
as the ability to make yourself do what you
should do when you should do it, regardless of
if you feel like it or not.
It is easy to do something when you feel like it.
It is when you do not feel like it and you force
yourself to do it anyway that you move your life
and career onto the fast track. What decisions
do you need to make today in order to start
moving toward the top of your field? Whatever
it is, either to get in or get out, make a decision
today and then get started.
The late Peter Drucker, father of modern
management, once said; “When the end of
the day rolls around, have you ever thought
to yourself, ‘Where did my time go today?’” If
so, do you often vow to handle your time
management better tomorrow?
Do you commit to do a better job of planning?
This single act alone can change the whole
direction of your life. Here are some steps
that you can follow to discipline yourself and
manage your valuable time.
