WHAT IS THE TIME?

WHAT IS THE TIME?

Is there someone who does not use time on this planet? No! Everyone uses time in everything he or she does and the creator of heaven and earth did use time and still uses time. Then The Antidote states that there is no one on earth who has not asked this question "What's the time?".

Time is the inevitable progression into the future with the passing of present events into the past. The question above simply seeks to identify what must be done at a particular moment of time or what is expected to happen and be done and not just having knowledge of *what's the time*. We need to make good use our time and not just have knowledge of it.

Biblically, Ecclesiastes chapter 3 highlights the time for everything. Which means doing something at the wrong time is disastrous and vice versa. Therefore we need to pay attention to time and it uses. Time once past cannot be brought back by any means and it is important to understand the value of time. Time is money.  There goes a proverb , “Time and tide wait for no man“.

Time is invaluable. In-fact, time is more valuable than money. Time is very valuable partly for the reason that we are all only allotted a certain amount of time in our lives, and so we need to make sure that we use it wisely. Nothing can stop the flow of time. Time once past cannot be brought back by any means.

However, some people do not realize the value of time and spend it unwisely. Instead of focusing on important tasks at hand, they waste their time, thinking that they would make up the loss in the future. They should realize that many of the future troubles can be avoided by taking prompt action in a timely manner. The famous proverb, *“a stitch in time saves nine“,* also highlights the importance of sorting out problem at early stage.

Time-management always remains the critical success factor. If anybody wastes his childhood, he will not be able to acquire and build up character in future and will suffer all consequences. Similarly, if a student neglects his studies from day-to-day, no amount of hard labor before the examination will get him through. Time-management is a good habit and lays the foundation of a success in future.

A person who understands the importance of time practices punctuality in life. A punctual person, who uses his time cautiously, becomes successful in life. If we look around we will see that the successful people in all spheres of life made proper use of every moment of their time. The most prosperous nations too are those that do not waste any moment.

Being on time, and being aware of *what time it is*, ensures that we will not turn up late for our appointments. This is very important if we want to treat other people with politeness and respect. Their time is valuable, just like ours is, and we should not cause them to waste it. It is true that nobody can accurately forecast the future. There are many things that are beyond the control of human-beings. The economy and financial situation of countries are fast changing.

Though the future is unseen, man can work hard today to increase the probability of a better future. People should use their time properly.  We should try our best to avoid the habit of indolence and begin to do our jobs in time. It will surely brighten our future. Beloved God bless you for reading and sharing *The Antidote* articles with the rest of the world and as well deciding to be *an antidote.*
