TIME as an INVESTMENT

“Time is the one thing we all possess. Our success depends on the proper use of our time and its by-product, the odd moment. Every minute that you save by making it useful or more profitable is that much added to your life and its possibilities. Every minute lost is a neglected by-product-once gone, you will never get it back.”

Think of the odd quarter of an hour before breakfast, the odd half-hour after lunch. Remember the chance to read, or figure, or think with concentration about your own career, which presents itself now and again during the day.

All these oportunitis are the by-products of your daily existence. Use them and you may find what many successful companies have found-- that the real profit is in the utilization of the by-products.

Among the aimless, unsuccessful, or worthless, you often hear talk about "killing time.” Those who ar always killing time are realy killing their own chances in life. Those who are destined to become successful are those who make time live by making it useful.

Imagine that there is a bank, which credits your account each morning with $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 cent, 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 you have failed to invest to good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft, yet 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.


Money lost could be re-earned. Electricity spent could be recharged but time spent is irredeemable.

We must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it to get the utmost in health, happiness and success! The clock is ticking. Make the most of
today.

Have a good day everyone!!! INVEST WELL!!!
