Bank Account

Imagine there is a bank, which credits your account each morning with Rs 86,400, carries over no balance from day to day, allows you to keep no cash balance, and every evening cancels whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every pence, of course!
Well, everyone 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 records 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!

Therefore, there is never not enough time or too much time. Time management is decided by us alone and nobody else. It is never the case of us not having enough time to do things, but the case of whether we want to do it. 




To realize the value of one year,
ask a student who has failed his final exam.

To realize the value of one month,
ask the parent of a premature baby.

To realize the value of one week,
ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.

To realize the value of one day,
ask a daily wage laborer who has a large family to feed.

To realize the value of one hour,
ask lovers who are waiting to meet.

To realize the value of one minute,
ask a person who has missed the train, the bus, or a plane.

To realize the value of one second,
ask a person who has survived an accident.

To realize the value of one millisecond,
ask the person who has won a silver medal at the Olympics.

Treasure every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time. And remember that time waits for no one.


Bank Account - Time


The clock is running. Make the most of today.

The Greatest gift of life is Friendship.

Follow @freeuormind Smile with the world. Connect with as many people as you can. We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone.

I just visited my childhood friends after many years. We had a get together, and all our memories came alive. It was as if we are living that time, that moment once again. It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them. It is laughter, It is joy and sharing of pleasures. The heart finds its morning and feels refreshed with old friends. ...

Life is hard by the yard, but by the inch, it's a cinch

When Bob was 17 years old, one morning he woke up from the bed and asked himself  "What is the purpose of my life?" How will I spent all this time of my life? How will I be remembered by people when I have left this world ? Am I living a meaningful life? Do I have a life purpose? What am I striving to become?
