“The most precious resource we all have is TIME”
Our time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma—which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice and more importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. When we think about tomorrow we must think about our time today. Time, as we grow old, teaches many lessons because time is the wisest counselor of all, time is the school in which we learn and time is the fire in which we burn. Time is equal to our life; therefore, waste your time and waste of your life, or master your time and master your life. Once you have mastered time, you will understand how true it is that most people overestimate what they can accomplish in a year and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade!
When managing our time it is necessary to check your priorities. It’s not enough to be busy, so are the ants. The question is, what are we busy about? We must categorize and sort our priorities. If you want to make good use of your time, you’ve got to know what’s most important and then give it all you’ve got. In our Rural Impact Sourcing Technical Training, we have to finish a lot of tasks. Whenever we think about how we’re gonna finish all our tasks, we become unable to do even a single task. It is because we don’t set priorities. We can’t serve two masters at the same time. To do two things at once is to do neither. One of the most popular in Chinese proverbs says “One cannot manage too many affairs: like pumpkins in the water, one pops up while you try to hold down the other.
Steve Jobs once say’s “for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today is the last day of my life, what do I want to do?, what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something”
Do not think about the deadline, think about how you’re gonna finish it. If we want success we must change something. We have to change our mindset and have a strong will. Just like Steve Jobs, he is a kind of person that thinks that he excels from among others, though it is kinda negative to others he makes it as a motivation and he succeeds in life. Because of his strong will and have a proper management of time, he is now known as a founder of Apple and Pixar.
Every day just the beginning of a new day. God has given us this day to use as I will. we can waste it or use it for good. What we do today is important, because we are exchanging a day of our life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving in its place something that we have traded for it. For me I want it to be gain, not loss; good, not evil; success not failure; in order that I shall not regret the price I paid for it.
Time is the most precious thing in life that doesn’t cost money. that’s why in our day 8 of training we had given a template on making a monthly planning calendar, which is very useful in managing our time during our 21 days campaigned.
