Why do I think that time is the greatest treasure that we human beings have?

For not knowing how to manage our time and value it as that most precious asset that all human beings have, is that at some point our mind wants to go back to the past, and that is when we often hear people say:

"If I could only go back to the past and make amends for my mistakes".

That is a desperate statement that announces how valuable time is in our lives, if we did not grow old and immortal perhaps we would not think so much about these things, however unfortunately we realize how valuable time is in our lives when there is not much that can be remedied.

Let's stop for a moment and think what would happen if a doctor told us that we only have 24 hours left to live. We will surely regret all the time we spent in our past to share with friends and family, a situation that for the present with only 24 hours to live is not enough.

If we understand time in our lives as that treasure that allows us to live under a life with discipline and organization, surely we manage time so that it reaches us for the most important things in our lives, otherwise perhaps we can live thinking about a past that no longer exists and a future that may never come.

With all this reflection I don't mean that it is necessary that we live life in an accelerated way as if there was never a tomorrow, but that we find the balance of knowing how to administer our most valuable treasure (time) to live life in a healthy and diverse way where we don't have to regret wanting to correct things from the past that are impossible to solve, since until now humanity has not found the formula to travel in time and be able to travel to our past and correct our mistakes, maybe if we manage to live long enough but with a future that is not what we would like.

I close this reflection evoking a popular saying among people: "Let's not put off until tomorrow what we can do today", since every minute counts, always acting with prudence and wisdom we will be able to live a life full of joy, of course with its ups and downs but taking advantage of the time we have.

Every second is a different time you will never live again.

Hello friend, a great reflection, certainly I think that all humans at some point in our lives we have wanted to turn back time, but I think that after a certain age or certain experiences we learn to accept our situation and take advantage of the time we have left or today, as you say we must take advantage of today but also set goals for tomorrow. Greetings!

Hello friend @sandracarrascal! Here you show us a great truth, our greatest treasure is time, you can not go back or forward, we can only live intensely the present, sometimes it costs us to learn this, perhaps over the years we value it more and we put aside many things that are no longer important to us to live as we really want.
greetings

That's right, it's a paradox, because time is so important for us, but we can't travel in it, neither to the past nor to the future, only to build for the future and not to regret the past.

Very good reflection friend @sandracarrascal. Many times we don't realize how valuable time is, and it happens to many that they realize it when they have very little left, everything material can be recovered, but not time, that's why it is very valuable. It is a pity that in our youth we did not appreciate it that way.

I think it happens to all of us that we only give value to time when part of our youth has already passed.

One of my favorite authors in his book "rich father poor father" mentions that only after he became financially free could he have time to live life, I personally believe that the fact that people have 24 hours does not make the time good just to be alive, I personally believe that people should seek freedom to really take advantage of their time in life.

Very good point, to seek financial freedom is to make us free to live life and take advantage of the time that work takes away from us, you are so right.

Excellent reflection, time plays against us, when we think we have it, it hits us with speed, when we sense situations and we want to anticipate the facts, it hits us with its slowness, in short, time must be used in every second, minute and hour, as some people say without haste but without pause. Thank you for sharing this great manuscript.

Of course I understand you, it is a strategy to ensure that time does not play negatively on us but rather that we manipulate it at our whim, although time is the same at every moment I think that feeling of slowness or high speed is due to our anxieties, and that by controlling them we are improving time in our favor.
