The Time Paradox

"Time is one of the most powerful influences on our thoughts, feelings, and actions, yet we are usually totally unaware of the effect of time in our lives."



My main takeaways:
  • Time is your scarcest resource and more valuable than money. While we run cost-benefit analyses before making an investment of money, we are not as deliberate before making an investment of time.
  • How you perceive time — the time that's in the past, how much time you think you have ahead of you, the value of your current moment, how you explain the passage of time — has a huge influence on your decision making.
    • Therefore, if you want to better understand a person, try to understand how they think about time, and especially how they think about the time they have left till death. Or if they think about death at all.

  2. Time is one of the most valuable thing and needs to spend as well as you can. Everything happens to everybody sooner or later if there is time enough that's why is better to prioritize things and also when you do something that's need to be done right and If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?
