It is by far the most valuable finite asset around.
We only get so much of it. No matter how much money we have. No matter what family of influence we come from.
You can’t buy more of it.
You can’t negotiate for more of it.
You can’t touch it or feel it.
What is the technical definition of time?
Time is the continued sequence of existence and events that occurs in an apparently irreversible succession from the past, through the present, into the future.
Yes, despite what the movies sometimes depict, wonderful Star Trek in particular, you cannot go back.
It is irreversible.
It is a component quantity of various measurements used to sequence events, to compare the duration of events or the intervals between them, and to quantify rates of change of quantities in material reality or in the conscious experience.
Time is often referred to as a fourth dimension, along with three spatial dimensions.
Once your time runs out, it is done. All of it.
Since that appears to be the case, what are you doing with it and how are you spending your time?
There are certain factors to consider when you answer that question.
First of all, an argument could be made that the most valuable time you have is when you are very young.
Traveling the world at 25 is not the same as doing so at 65, when health issues can be a factor.
There are some basics as to how you spend your time and the quantity you allocate to each category.
What are the majors?
First, take care of your health. The rest can go in the order you desire. Find a career that you love. Make as much money as you can without neglecting your family. Keep your moral and spiritual standards high. Try and purchase a property so your monthly expenses, in terms of rent or a mortgage are fixed.
That is a starting place from our point of view.
Let’s travel to the bookstore and look at another one.
You can take your time.
Happier Hour: How to Beat Distraction, Expand Your Time, and Focus on What Matters Most Hardcover – September 6, 2022
By Cassie Holmes (Author)
“Learn how to reframe your time around life’s happiest moments to build days that aren’t just full but fulfilling with this “joyful guide” (Eve Rodsky, New York Times bestselling author) that is the antidote to overscheduling.
Our most precious resource isn’t money. It’s time. We are allotted just twenty-four hours a day, and we live in a culture that keeps us feeling “time poor.” Since we can’t add more hours to the day, how can we experience our lives as richer?
Based on her wildly popular MBA class at UCLA, Professor Cassie Holmes demonstrates how to immediately improve our lives by changing how we perceive and invest our time. Happier Hour provides empirically based insights and easy-to-implement tools that will allow you to:
-Optimally spend your hours and feel confident in those choices
-Sidestep distractions
-Create and savor moments of joy
-Design your schedule with purpose
-Look back on your years without regrets
Enlivened by Holmes’s upbeat narrative and groundbreaking research, Happier Hour “is filled with loads and loads of practical, evidence-based advice for how to live better by investing in what really matters. It’s the kind of book that can change your life for the better” (Laurie Santos, Yale professor and host of The Happiness Lab podcast).”
Exceptional content from important philosophical and emotional stand points.
It is about the moments and having a purpose.
We mentioned money. Time to take a closer look at managing that.
Why Didn’t They Teach Me This in School?: 99 Personal Money Management Principles to Live By Paperback – March 6, 2013
By Cary Siegel (Author)
“Bestselling 5 Star Graduation Gift for both College and High School grads! Recommended by eBay, Forbes, Lifehack, Elite Daily, Real Simple and Bustle. Why do high schools and colleges require students to take courses in English, math and science, yet have absolutely no requirements for students to learn about personal money management?
Why Didn’t They Teach Me This in School?
99 Personal Money Management Lessons to Live By was initially developed by the author to pass on to his five children as they entered adulthood. As it developed, the author realized that personal money management skills were rarely taught in high schools, colleges and even in MBA programs. Unfortunately, books on the subject tend to be complicated, lengthy reads.
The book includes eight important lessons focusing on 99 principles that will quickly and memorably enhance any individual’s money management acumen. Unlike many of the personal money management books out there, this book is a quick, easily digested read that focuses more on the qualitative side than the quantitative side of personal money management. The principles are not from a text book.
Rather, they are practical principles learned by the author as he navigated through his financial life. Many are unorthodox in order to be memorable and provoke deeper thought by the reader. Not only an excellent graduation gift for high school and college students but also a great read for any adult!”
We agree.
The approach here appears to be far more practical than the typical nuts and bolts of making, investing, spending and saving.
Always remember, especially if you are young. You can have good health, make a good living and save a lot of money but if you do not live a life of high character, in the end, what will all of the above mean?
Time to reflect on character.
The Road to Character Paperback – September 13, 2016
By David Brooks (Author)
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • David Brooks challenges us to rebalance the scales between the focus on external success—“résumé virtues”—and our core principles.
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMIST
“With the wisdom, humor, curiosity, and sharp insights that have brought millions of readers to his New York Times column and his previous bestsellers, David Brooks has consistently illuminated our daily lives in surprising and original ways. In The Social Animal, he explored the neuroscience of human connection and how we can flourish together. Now, in The Road to Character, he focuses on the deeper values that should inform our lives.
Looking to some of the world’s greatest thinkers and inspiring leaders, Brooks explores how, through internal struggle and a sense of their own limitations, they have built a strong inner character. Labor activist Frances Perkins understood the need to suppress parts of herself so that she could be an instrument in a larger cause.
Dwight Eisenhower organized his life not around impulsive self-expression but considered self-restraint. Dorothy Day, a devout Catholic convert and champion of the poor, learned as a young woman the vocabulary of simplicity and surrender. Civil rights pioneers A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin learned reticence and the logic of self-discipline, the need to distrust oneself even while waging a noble crusade.
Blending psychology, politics, spirituality, and confessional, The Road to Character provides an opportunity for us to rethink our priorities, and strive to build rich inner lives marked by humility and moral depth.”
Priorities.
Spending our time well should be a very high priority.
We sense if you focus on the above categories, especially when you are alone with you, the hope is that you will live a life with your time well spent.
