Is time money?

For me, time is worth much more than money.

It is one of the most precious things we received when we were born (besides parents’ love). By saying that time is (only) money came up probably in some capitalists head. I suppose that the inventor did not read the stoic philosopher Seneca.

Money is nothing in comparison to the time.

When we manage our time smartly, there is a very high possibility that money (sooner or later) will appear in our lives. Let us control time by thinking not only about ourselves. Above all, we should remember the other people about our loved ones and society as a whole organism.

We should always remember that we have limited time in our lives.

That is why we must always be aware that we have to organize our lives as efficiently as possible. Even if one’s life does not last forever, we all have the chance that we will make history. Properly managing time is the key to success. Seneca, for example, described it as follows: he wrote that in the play in the theatre, much better and more memorable is the actor, who played his role well (even if it was only the episode) in comparison to the mediocre actor, who plays the main character. A similar situation is with our lives. But what do I understand by “properly managing time”?

For me, the key lies in the word “creation.”

On the one hand, we can make children and try to give them all our best to make them good people. On the other hand, we can create art. The more we will make it, the more we will bring the added value for ourselves and to society. Moreover, while making art, we can empower members of our family, friends, and others who we love and respect. Thanks to that we all will be happier in our lives. It is the win-win situation for all sides.

Additionally, those who create will be probably immortalized much more than those who do not produce anything,

In conclusion, I want to encourage you to be as creative as possible in your life. Go out and take the pictures. Paint, draw, sing, dance, or write – create! Remember that we have limited time.  We should do as much as possible to empower other people and, ultimately to lead a happier life. Lastly, I believe that if we create a lot of excellent creative stuff, the money sooner or later will appear from this activity.
