THE VALUE OF TIME

Imagine there is a bank that credits your account
each morning with Rs.86,400.
It carries over no balance from day to day. Every
evening deletes whatever part of the balance you
failed to use 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 loss 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....smiley
