“The Value of Time”

Link

Time is the most precious gift in life. Without time, nothing can be done!

Why do you think time is considered more valuable than money?

Time is considered more valuable than money because time is limited and cannot be recovered when lost. While money can be earned again when lost, time can never be replaced. Every seconds that passes is gone for life, which makes time a precious gift everyone has.

Another reason time is considered more valuable than money is that time is what allows us do meaningful things in life. We use time to work, build, learn, and purchase our dreams. Even the process of making money requires time and effort, that means money need time to be earned and spent. Without time, it will be impossible to create wealth, gain knowledge, or achieve personal goals.

Time is what gives us access to be with family, friends and loved ones which is more valuable than money. These experiences creates memories that shape our lives and bring happiness something money cannot always provide. Since we all have a limited amount of time each day, we must decide how yo use it wisely. People who manage their time well often end up successful and productive.

The value of time over money cannot be over emphasized. Time is like gold which should be treasured because there can never be 12am twice in the same day. Once gone, is gone forever.

I wasted time thinking another opportunity would come for me to be taken again for that job offer...

I got a job as an assistant manager in a company but I reluctantly ignored their male telling myself that they will call me because they needed me and I forgot I was not the only one who came for the interview. Since I didn't accept the appointment letter, it was obvious I didn't need the job.

The next day, I went to the company to ask about the job, meanwhile, I had accepted the job at night but got no response. I was carefully told that someone else took the job. That was the moment of my life that humbled me.

I wasted time and my job was given to someone else. It pained me really bad and it made me learn in a hard way. From that day forward, I took time seriously more than ever, in fact, I have time-table for all my daily routines. I made sure I didn't abuse time again.

• Avoid distractions

Things like social media, movies, or chats can waste a lot of time. Reducing these distractions keeps one focused in accomplishing a task.

• Manage break wisely

All work and no rest, makes you dull. Working continuously can lead to tiredness and low productivity. Taking short breaks helps refresh the mind.

If you could go back in time to change one decision in your life, what would it be and why?

It would be the job I lost years ago!

You know I was feeling important and lost the job. I wasted time for nothing sake and it backfire. This job is a multimillion naira job and was given to me at a platter but I gave it away.

I wish I could take back the hands of time, but it's impossible.
