What Is the Value of Time?

As you take the time to read this letter, here are some thoughts about the value of time:

• To realize the value of one year: Ask the student who has failed a final exam.

• To realize the value of one month: Ask the mother who has given birth to a premature baby.

• To realize the value of one week: Ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.

• To realize the value of one hour: Ask the sweethearts who are waiting to meet.

• To realize the value of one minute: Ask the person who just missed the train, bus or plane.

• To realize the value of one second: Ask the person who just missed being in a car crash.

• To realize the value of one millisecond: Ask the person who won a gold medal in the Olympics.

We can make more money but we can’t make more time – so let’s spend it wisely!
