Time is incredibly valuable because it allows you to do things that matter to you, such as learning, working, creating, enjoying, and helping others. It is finite and irreversible, and we cannot get back the time you have lost or wasted.

While people often say “Time is money,” time is actually the more precious resource and more valuable than money.

The value of money is based on its purchasing power of goods and services.  Furthermore, it’s value depends on how soon you can use it, and when time is the only differentiating factor, money received sooner is always more valuable. The intangible nature of time makes it one of mankind’s most priceless treasures.

According to James Clear, author of bestselling book Atomic Habits, “not all uses of time are equal, and this simple truth can make a big difference in life.”

“People who spend their time doing more profitable work make more money. People who spend their time investing in others build better relationships. People who spend their time creating a flexible career enjoy more freedom. People who spend their time working on high-impact projects contribute more to society,” states Clear.

“Whether you want more wealth, more friendship, more freedom, or more impact, it all comes down to how you spend and value your time.” And, time is finite and short
