Time Is A Thief

The funniest thing about life is, we keep thinking we have time on our side to do whatever we want, so therefore, we delay a lot in doing whatever we set out to achieve because we feel we still have ample time to accomplish it.

Like the popular saying goes “Time is a thief”. I totally agree with this quote because the more we try to procrastinate whatever aim we set out to achieve, the more time steals the opportunity from us. We need and have to realize that we control time but if we spend it wastefully, we will realize that it is controlling us. Let’s learn to do what we have to do when we have to do it.

The greatest friend and enemy to man is time.

If spent judiciously, it becomes our friend but if spent unwisely, it automatically becomes our enemy.

The biggest human disease is procrastination and it what steals our precious time from us.

There is no gain saying or argument that every person in this world have at one time or the other procrastinated for little or no reason.

The one big thing that leads to procrastination is laziness. Most times when we are about to begin a task, we feel too relaxed doing it and the next thing that comes to mind is, “I’ll do it later” and sometimes, we end up not doing that thing.

The moment we start realizing that we can actually do that particular thing now and always rest later, maybe by then, just maybe, we will start appreciating time.

Generally, people play down the importance of time as we always feel we have lots of it but do you know the irony of it?, time is the most scarce commodity but yet, we feel we have. Isn’t that ironical???

Summary

Before dropping my golden pen, I want everyone reading this article right now, including myself the writer to take time seriously and realize that “whatever we do with time will either make or mar our whole existence as humans”. Like the popular saying goes “a word is enough for the wise”.

thanks for this post bro! i myself am guilty of this, but its not that i procrastinate a lot, its just that there are days where i feel so tired from working and at the same time doing steemit that at night, that when i have an hour or so of free time, i spend it watching youtube or doing trivial things as in my mind, i go into that "sense of entitlement mode" where i think i deserve a short break or two.. i dont know if im too hard on myself but i definitely think that i could push myself a little bit more.
