🔸We always are told to run with time and if we don't run with time and left behind then we lost. But is it the whole truth we know? Have a look what Richard Walsh says. According to him, time is a thing we can't stop or make working as we want. If we follow every ways and clues and become so punctual, still we may loose time. None of us can't run with the flow of time. It will go on and on. So instead of thinking how to run with time, we should think how much time we have and how to make the time accomplished and useful in the meantime. So the author showed us the ways and clues and charts so that we could use our time in a better way. He didn't says that we should force ourselves into long work to maintain the time. Rather, he says that we never should do such. We should learn to work making a chart or "to do list" or journal and list the works we have in a day. Less important or more important whatever it is. Just have to make chart and put them into our journal. We don't need to be strict at first to follow this. We should do this gradually and at the end we would be succeeded maintaining time.
🔸The author told us to judge every work we have and decide which is important and less important. Thus we could spend more useful time. The book also clarified that If we have meetings or other essential work at office then how should we be presented and managed the time in a better way. How our meetings and events would be productive and efficient in meantime if we succeed to manage every minute useful. The book also taught some points of how we should interact in social community and manage time. When we should promise anyone for doing any task and when we shouldn't.
🔸 The book not only showed us the ways of making time useful but also helped us by making us know what's our actual problem. Mentally or physically. Most of us sincerely facing problems mentally and psychologically. So, even if a person tries frequently for maintaining time and work but couldn't do so because he has mentally pressures and distressingly resented. This book also helped with such problems and if someone have them, what we the person should do. The Author didn't suggested or discoursed us to go to a psychiatrist first. He did give the most precious informations and solutions which can't be mentioned at once here.
🔸 Most of us gets vexed by WAITING. It's a thing we hate to do. But the time we wait for someone or something, why shouldn't we use the time for productivity? And how could we use the time while waiting. What can we do at the time thus we won't be disturbed while waiting? The book answered the questions.
🔸 We're making our time useful, doing more office work, students are studying using the best of time. But we forgot our family! Are we giving our time table a place for our family time? Or just running for money and with time? The book helped also with deciding what you may do in such situation.
🔸You have phobia of something or have a little fear for something. And you are persuading yourself you don't have it. Whereas the author says that you should accept your deficiencies and fears or phobias anything. And then fight with it. In the battle of life survival, you don't always have to work and work. You may rest your body for some while. Even if your work can be missed, your body should get rest at first. Break time for yourself. Gift some things you like yourself by own. Running after time, you can't underestimate your happiness and health.
