We need to invest our time, not just spend it
- The key is in not spending time, but in investing it. Stephen Covey
- There’s a huge difference between spending time and investing it. The word “spending” means that you’re using something up or exhausting it. When you spend time, you’re not really looking to get anything back. When you invest in something you expend resources, but you do so with an expectation of getting a good return on your investment (ROI). Investing your time means that you engage in activities which are calculated to bring you meaningful rewards. Marelisa Fábrega

- Each of us has a bank account of time, into which a deposit is made and withdrawals are taken. No matter how depleted that account was at the end of yesterday, today it is chock- full of moments to cherish, memories to make, and minute after minute to spend wisely or not. Michael Rawls
- Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway. Earl Nightingale

What would you do? You’d draw out every cent every day and use it to your best advantage. Well, you do have such a bank, and its name is time. Every morning, this bank credits you with 1,440 minutes. And it writes off as forever lost whatever portion you have failed to invest to good purpose. Ann Landers
