Time is precious. Anything that stops you from using your time well stops your growth and development. Use your time to change yourself. Remember that time is not measured by the quantity of the deeds that you do but by the quality of the deeds that you do.

You need time to love, time to reinvent yourself, time to learn, time to grow, time to form a positive relationship, time to forgive, time to be yourself, time to connect with your inner self, and time to make your dreams come true. You need time to do great things. Nothing happens overnight. If you want to become a great soul, you need time. Because it takes time to become great. It takes time to get to the top. If you want to get to the top of your career, you need time to grow, to stretch yourself.

How To Make Money Your Friend, Not Your Enemy

“The desire for wealth is nearly universal, and none can say it is not laudable, provided the possessor of it accepts its responsibilities, and uses it as a friend to humanity.”– P.T. Barnum

Money comes and go. It makes people comfortable. But it can’t buy happiness. If you want to make yourself happier, make money your friend, not your enemy. Control your money. Don’t let your money control you. Use your wealth to change the world. Use your wealth to make the world a better place. Use your wealth to nurture your soul, not to poison your soul.

Remember, “It is not what you have that matters; it is how you use it that matters.” It does not matter what you have. It matters how you use what you have to change your life and the lives of the people around you. People don’t really care about how much you have until they know what you have for them.

When it comes to helping people, “People don’t care about what you are going to give to them. They care about how you are going to give it to them.” If you want people to respect your gifts, give them with respect.
