Time

By Priyansh Jain

(Final ASL speech)

Time is the most precious resource in the world, as once it is spent, it can never be replenished. It always flows in the forward direction and does not stop for anyone irrespective of their social, economic or political standing. 

Everyone should respect and value time as it is equally important for every person and wasting it would just lead to resentment. All successful people recognize time as the most important resource and use it thoughtfully. They don’t waste time unnecessarily and also utilize leisure time in productive ways. Most of us have a terrible habit of piling up our work and spending crucial hours performing unnecessary activities. We procrastinate till the last moment and complain about not having enough time. This is a common practice and we all are guilty of it but we must learn to utilize time judiciously by various methods of time management. 

A punctual and disciplined life would help us perform tasks at utmost efficiency and to the fullest of our capability. This would lead us to a better future and if everyone increases productivity and works to their potential, it would help in the development of our entire country. 

Some time management techniques that we all can adopt include- making a schedule and a to-do list of the tasks, prioritizing our tasks so that we can perform the more important and urgent jobs first, getting rid of distractions so that we can focus on the tasks at hand, and tracking our time so that we are self-aware about how we spend it. 

If we are determined towards our goal and are willing to work for it, we automatically would organize our lives, and be prudent with how we spend our time. So, from now on, keeping all these points in mind, let’s all value our priceless time.
