The bank
Imagine there is a bank that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every evening it deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use that day. What would you do?
Each of us has such a bank. Its name is TIME! Every night it writes off as lost whatever you failed to invest to good purpose. It carries no balance, allows no overdraft.
Every day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains 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 tomorrow. You must live in the present on today’s deposits. Invest it so as to get the most in health, happiness and success!
The clock is running. Make the most of it today. Treasure every moment you have. Remember that time waits for no one.
“Time is the most valuable thing that a man can spend.” – Diogenes Laertius
