TIME never returns

As TIME is not reversible, it can’t be reversed. Moments gone by cannot return. I am always reminded of Hindi song, Zindagi ke Safar Main Gujar Jate Hai Jo Makam, Phir Nahi Aate……(ज़िंदगी के सफर में गुजर जाते हैं जो मक़ाम फ़िर नहीं आते......), it’s so true. The precious moments lost are lost forever. One may earn back the money lost, one may regain lost confidence, lost prestige or any other material loss, but one cannot get back the TIME. Another thing that cannot return is departed souls and biological ageing. One can’t be young again, even Viagra has limitations for males and parlors for females.



The only way one can do well with the TIME is with its optimization. This is different than what the IT guys talk about LTO, GCC etc. For me it’s simple multitasking. Get into multitasking. Do few things together in a given time frame. Remember you can combine things that go well together. Many persons read newspapers in toilets, I hate it, but it’s multitasking. The other day I saw a funny combination, watch with lighter. I wonder what can be the applications of this combination, unless one wants to use timer to burn someone’s xxx. Climbing stairs rather than waiting for lift takes you to desired floor and gives much needed exercise so save on cardio time. Much of the multitasking will depend upon type of job you carry out and areas where you can save time by combining activities. I have seen a medical representative preparing for competitive exams while waiting in doctor’s chamber for his call. Good utilization of time while waiting for doctor rather than observing gloomy faces of sick people or watching a good looking nurse or receptionist. In this era your smart phones are a great source of information that can be used while traveling. Get useful information or mail your reports, rather than sending WhatsApp messages or forwarding useless jokes and other forwards. Talking on mobile phone while driving is also multitasking but that can end all your worries about tasks, just not multitasking. Combine right things to do together, it has its advantages but the big disadvantage of multitasking is you can do couple of things wrong at one time. Remember the moments lost are gone forever, so whatever is remaining use them for your enrichment, betterment. After all you have limited time.
