The Clock is Ticking...



The clock is ticking…..

Don’t let the moss grow under your feet.

No stage of life should mean mental death.

No stage of life should be marked by stagnation.

The clock is ticking….

A year goes by in a flash.

Last year went by in a flash.

Where did it go?

The clock is ticking….

Find new sources of purpose and passion to renew your energy and invigorate your spirit.

Expand your horizons.

Time does not stand still.

You can have all the money in the world, but you can’t buy back time.

You can try to buy back the way you looked.

But you can’t buy back your energy or your health.

So use the energy and health you have now.

Do it NOW.

The clock is ticking…..

Unpack yourself from the box you've gotten yourself into.

Explore new possibilities.

Don’t live a one-dimensional life.

Who says you have to?

Before there was money, you had passions which had nothing to do with money.

Bring those passions to the forefront.

Or…

Look around you and discover new passions.

Some of them, you now have the money to fulfill.

The clock is ticking….

The best thing about money is it gives us time.

So do the things you have the time to do.

Snatch, seize and enjoy every moment of time (as Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield said).

Because the clock is ticking….

Dear Reader…. Mr. Chapra’s message - which is what you just read - is best read in conjunction with my previous post The Ticking Clock Association. Do read it when you get the chance.

P.S. I would like to thank Ajay and Audrey for being my “get my apartment straightened” cheerleaders.  I have made good progress, but I need to keep going.  So, please continue to keep on me, so I keep on at it.  Thanks to Ajay and Audrey for their comments on my recent posts, and thanks to all the rest of you for your likes, tweets, pins and shares…..much appreciated.

P.S. 2 If you want to read The Clock is Ticking as a Powerpoint presentation on SlideShare, you can do so here.
