Time is Gold

It has been the most popular motto in the classroom whenever the teacher will ask the class. Indeed, I have read "Time is Gold" for so many times whenever I read the answers of my classmates in a slum notebook when I was still a student. It looks simple yet very meaningful. While I was checking assignments of my students at present, I have read it once again "Time is Gold." It seems like it is reminding me of something that we have a very limited time on Earth and what are we doing on those limited time. Are we using our precious 12 hours a day to live life to its fullest or we just let time pass by doing nothing or worrying a lot over something we cannot get over with? Have we been productive or effective and efficient in our work lately? While pondering on this old saying, I have realized how valuable our time is. It is an abstract concept that we cannot get back just like our spoken word for others. How do you manage your time?

I work fast. People noticed that. I finish all my tasks for that day so i dont have to keep up the next day. I dont work with distractions too. I am never going to be productive if i encounter a lot of that for sure.

That is good. I usually do multi-tasking. I could not focus much on one thing. I have to work on how can I focus on it. I think it is much better than doing many things at a time.

I always use every minute and seconds of my time. Be in the office or at home. I am not contented of doing nothing. Because I also believe that Time is Gold. It really is. So we do not have to waste it. It is precious.

I feel a bit uncomfortable somehow when I feel like I am passing time doing nothing at all. It happens when I am lazy.

@magallon True. We should overcome our laziness. That is a rust that can destroy us if we always let it rule.

@annierose There are days that I also feel lazy but I really see to it that I have done even little or simple things.

I've been really productive this June except in mylot where my earnings is not even half of what I earned last month but I don't care much about the money here. But in my company, I feel June is the most productive month for me. Been really quite busy turning my plans into actions and doing my best to make this company the best in this town.

Yeah time is an abstract and the most important aspect of our lives . I manage my time by setting up timetable and following it sincerely.

That is one strategy that I like to do too. Doing our own time table. Do you do it everyday?
