See how time just flies in no time! If for a company or organization, the work time lost may mean money lost but for people, personally, time lost may translate into an irreparable loss – of opportunities and potential achievements. Time isn\u2019t just money, as a popular airlines\u2019 tagline claims; rather, time is <\/span>EVERYTHING<\/b>! To know its truth, simply ask someone who has missed many golden opportunities in life and now regrets it. That opportunity may have been a missed train, which could have landed him in time for a job interview, or could have got him his desired life partner- the possibilities are endless. You may also ask a failed student about the importance of the time he idled away or ask a terminally sick patient who has just been told by the doctor that they have only a few months to live now.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

All said and done, time is a unique resource which cannot be had in advance, can\u2019t be\u00a0 lent or gifted or re-claimed or transferred unlike money. To cap it, time is extremely democratic in the sense of being available to all – in the same amount, not a second more or less.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But quite often in life, you see people cribbing about a shortage of time for the many important things in life they want to do. To tell you the truth, I, too, have been a culprit here as I also used to complain about the lack of time and wished for a longer day until one day\u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can find the rest of the story in detail in my book <\/span>A Story Can Change Your Life<\/a><\/strong>,<\/span><\/i> too. Today, I interact with clients having similar complaints of being swamped in life, of facing shortage of time, of feeling stressed out due to this shortage. It must be sounding quite familiar. We all too often wish for a longer day to pack all our tasks into it but\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone has the same 24 hours in a day but despite that, many of us keep on wasting it thoughtlessly in meaningless activities. Wasting time equals wasting opportunities and once it slips off our hands, we can\u2019t but regret as it can\u2019t be regained. The tomorrow, the next week, the next month or the next year you have visualized to kick off a particular job\/activity at an \u201causpicious time\u201d may never come. Like they say, the best time to buy\u00a0 a house was 20 years ago, the second best time is <\/span>TODAY<\/b>! The only <\/span>RIGHT<\/b> time is <\/span>RIGHT NOW<\/b>.\u00a0 So, it would be unwise to postpone your work for tomorrow as what you really own is just \u201ctoday\u201d, which should translate into instant action, hard work, sweat, and effort. Obviously, it\u2019s no use striking the iron when cold; the opportune time for doing this thing is when it\u2019s hot.<\/span><\/p>\n

All thanks my exposure to time management ideas, I am pretty much convinced that our day is long enough to pack all our work, leisure and other needs into it. Had we been having more hours, hypothetically, we would have slowed down accordingly as Parkinson so aptly put it<\/span><\/p>\n

Work expands to fill the time available.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

The magic lies in better time management, which is a crucial skill we all need to master in order to optimize our productivity and create a better, happier, healthier life.<\/span><\/p>\n
