Let's start off by providing answers to these questions.

How many minutes/hours did you sleep in the last 24 hours?
How long did you spend watching movies or playing video games?
How long did you use to do something meaningful and productive in the last 24 hours?
How long did you spend texting or making phone calls?

Time is a priceless gift that everyone must make use of judiciously in other to be productive in life. A person that wishes to be great in life must be intentional about the use of time. Your effective use of your time will determine how far you will be great in your life.

I started this post by asking some questions about the use of your time and it is a good way to reflect on your day. If you spend more time on sleeping, watching movies, playing video games, texting or making phone calls rather than doing meaningful and productive activities in the last 24 hours or beyond, then you need to sit down and think about your life.

"Time is money, spend your time wisely" is a popular quote and one of the very first set of quotes that I know as a kid. Imagine if time is money, would you spend it lavishly on frivolities or you will spend wisely on the things that you actually need? This is the same mentality we should have about time.

There are only 24 hours in a day and you must be able to give account for every single second in the day. Before you spend hours watching movies or texting someone, ask yourself if you are doing the right thing and if you will not regret your actions in some later time.

In other words, you are wasting your life when you waste your time. So, if you so much value and cherish your life then you should not waste your time.

Great people in different fields around the world are those who invest their time in productive activities. The number of hours you utilize wisely in a day, week, month, or year determines how great you will be. A student that is studying while his or her colleagues are playing will reap the fruit of all those hours spend on studying when the results are released. The same way a businessman who sleep late in the night to research on how to improve his business will be thankful for those sleepless nights when his business begin to boom.

Most of us are guilty of wasting our time on unimportant activities such as gisting about politics, celebrity gossips etc. Some boys can argue between who is the better player between Ronaldo and Messi for hours - wasting their precious time on unproductive activities. These type of time-wasting should be avoided by anyone who values his or her life and wants to be great in life.

Remember, time that is wasted cannot be recovered.
