Time
Imagine 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. It's
name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400
seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of
this you have failed to invest to good purpose. It
carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft. 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 tomorrow. Youmust live in the present on today's
deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in
health, happiness and success! The clock is running. Make
the most of today.
