Do not squander time

We often come across people complaining that they hardly have the time to complete the job assigned to them, while there are a few who finish the very same work in a relaxed manner. All of us have equal time, not more or not less.”We always have time enough, if we will but use it right’ .Why then some accomplish easily while some struggle? The successful men organise their chores according to their importance, do one at a time and economize their time. They do not waste time on deciding what is to be done, in what order and when,thus procrastinating the important ones. The laggards start with easier jobs and do them leisurely leaving them hard pressed for time at the end for completing the urgent ones. They invariably fail. You must have heard the anecdote of a man spending years to learn the art of walking on water. When he narrated to Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa about his acquiring this feat, he laughed and said that he had wasted years for what can be done by paying ten paisa to the boatman. There should be a sense of proportion for the value of a job and the time devoted. Many people spend lot of time doing inconsequential things that have very little value.
If one fails to accomplish the work in time and always falls behind schedule there is a case for not accepting more work than what one can handle. This is to be decided by the individual. The best time saving habit is to start on time.”Lose an hour in the morning and you will be all day seeking it.”Make a plan of what you intend to do leaving small cushions of time in between for unforeseen contingencies. A well planned day means a relaxed day free from tension and hurry. Keep yourself busy throughout the day be it in work, recreation or hobbies.
