"Waste your money and you're only out of money, but waste your time and you've lost a part of your life." - Dr. Michael LeBoeuf

How does a person steal time from his employer? By coming in at eight-thirty instead of eight o'clock. By spending the first twenty minutes of the day getting coffee and reading the morning paper. By dilly-dallying during office hours. By making unnecessary trips to the water cooler and rest room. By chatting with co-workers instead of attending to business. By making lengthy personal calls or running personal errands on company time. By stretching coffee breaks. By leaving early for lunch. By coming back late from lunch. By "knocking off" early in the afternoon.

How do you steal time from yourself and others? You steal time when you don't have a planned schedule for your day and your life, when you have no specific time frame in which to accomplish specific tasks. You steal time from yourself and others when you procrastinate, when you put off dealing with issues and projects that need to be faced and handled right away.

Benjamin Franklin once said, "Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff life is made of."

If you truly want to win @ work and life generally, don't waste time. Rather redeem the time, because the days are not only evil, they are short. Receive grace to be a nice time investor in Jesus precious Name.
