The saying "time is money" misses something crucial: you can count your money, but you can't count your remaining days. The activities you say you don't have time for—reading, exercise, real conversations—are exactly what deserves your time.
Time is money. Well, actually, no, it's not, because you know exactly how much money you have right now, or you can at least find out. You have no idea how much time you have left, so time is not money. I don't have time to do that. The truth is, the things that you say you don't have time for are actually things you need to make time for. I don't have time to read. I don't have time to go to the gym. I don't have time to sit down and have this conversation. Think about it. Most things you say you don't have time for, you actually need to make time for. So you start to embrace the fact that every moment is a passing moment, including this moment right here.
I was literally kicked off a Southwest flight before for being disrespectful.
