Quote of the Day:

“You may delay, but time will not.” Benjamin Franklin

Meaning of the Quote:

Time waits on no man. It is constant. It keeps moving whether or not we take action. It is not something we can see, touch, or taste, but we can measure its passage. Time is not a commodity. We do not own time; therefore, we can not increase or decrease it. So even if we procrastinate or delay our decisions, it does not pause life. It just leaves us behind.

Discussion of the Quote:

As business owners and entrepreneurs, we know that time is precious and we can not afford to waste it. Unlike money or material things, time can not be replaced or replenished. We all have twenty hours of time each day. We can not save it for later, once it is gone it can never be returned.

Furthermore, when we procrastinate, we lose opportunities that may never return. Therefore, action keeps us aligned with time but inaction makes us spectators.

Moreover, time is of the essence. When we act quickly, we give ourselves the competitive edge in business. It is said that timing is everything. We have to seize momentum because delaying our ideas or projects can cause us to miss the right timing in the market.

Additionally, we have to be disciplined in our executions. Success comes to those who respect deadlines and act consistently. Consequently, waiting can often cost us more than failing fast and learning quickly. Indeed, time is money.

Final Thoughts:

We make progress step by step, not someday by someday. Every day we delay is a day that we can not get back. We have to remember that time waits for no one. Success belongs to those who act. Finally, the best time to take action was yesterday; the second-best time is today.
