A colleague recently posted a note on his LinkedIn profile, reminding me the value of time.  Take a look at this short message putting how we treat time, in perspective.

Time is the one thing just about everyone I meet says they want more of….Imagine time as money…

Imagine that you won a prize where each morning your bank account was deposited with $86,400 for you to spend how you choose.

However, there are rules:
1. What you don’t spend each day is taken away from you.
2. You can’t save any of it.
3. You can’t transfer any of it.
4. The prize can be taken away without warning!
So knowing these rules what would you do?

Chances are you wouldn’t want to waste any of it. You would make sure you enjoy it. You would look after the people you love. You’d give to people you don’t even know.

You would spend every cent, every day!

This prize actually exists. Except instead of money, each day we are given a gift – TIME!

Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400 seconds as a gift of life. When we go to sleep at night, any remaining time is NOT credited to us. We can’t save any of it.
