Imagine there is a bank account that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day.
Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? ... Draw out every cent, of course?
Each one of us 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 a good purpose.
It carries over no balance. It allows no over draft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day.
If you fail to use the dayโ€™s deposits, the loss is yours. There is no drawing against โ€œtomorrow.โ€
You must live in the present in today's deposits. Invest it. The clock is running away from you

So make the most of today.. And if today is already finished make the most of tomorrow and the next days after that...

One love. <3

I wouldn't need all that money every day.. Some days I might not spend a penny (or dime).. Same with time

@Burrfoot ha ! Same here. I think we would all run around to buy anything we need in one day but we wouldn't even spend all of that money in a single day.

@KiaraNecole don't get me wrong.. I could try my best for a few months ๐Ÿ˜‚

@Burrfoot oh yes ! I think we all could definitely do that ! hahaha .. And to think that these entertainers and celebrities at times get paid more than that ..๐Ÿ˜’

This is such a good inspirational story! Wow:) got me thinking! ..please write more!:)

@dedo1108 of course! Wise words are always useful ๐Ÿ‘Œ
