The Passage Of Time (ii)

If time must count for you, you must count your time – Femi Adediran, 2020

To be free you must live time bound – Femi Adediran, 2020

A man will never be happy until he is in  charge of his time. We are only happy to the extent that we have control over our time – Femi Adediran, 2020

Make your career time-bound, Make your personal development time-bound, Make your project time-bound, Make your trip time-bound, Make your involvement time-bound because even your life is Time-bound! – Femi Adediran, 2020

You don’t have to be in Jail to be sentenced to life imprisonment, all you have to do is to do nothing reasonable with your time every day and in a few years’ time your life would be no different from that of the man who has been put behind bars for life – Femi Adediran, 2020


A man will never be happy until he is in  charge of his time. We are only happy to the extent that we have control over our time. If you want to understand the meaning of a wasted life, ask the man who is in the prison who lives each day with nothing to show for it. If you want to understand what it means to “live hopelessly”, ask the man who has been sentenced to life imprisonment in Jail who looks forward to nothing but the day of his death

You don’t have to be in Jail to be sentenced to life imprisonment, all you have to do is to do nothing reasonable with your time every day and in a few years’ time your life would be no different from that of the man who has been put behind bars for life. If you think time is slow, ask the man who is busy and if you think time is fast, ask the man who is idle. What will be the cumulative result of your life in the next 5, 10 15years? What will your life amount to? How much money you would have made or how many lives you would have touched?

Our lifeline is in the timeline that we have drawn for ourselves. If time must not pass you by you must put a time to all you are passing by. Everything and anything  happens within the passage of time. Time will always tell the truth about our life in a short while. If time must count for you, you must count your time. To be free you must live time bound. Until you live time bound, you will always surfer shortage of time.

  • Make your career time bound
  • Make your personal development time bound
  • Make your project time bound
  • Make your trip time bound
  • Make your involvement time bound
  • Because even your life is Time bound!

Nothing can be fast paced because there is no short cut to anywhere worth going. Our generation becomes life bankrupt because we invested our  time in the wrong things. You will be able to maximize time If you know when to sit back and wait and when to stand up and go. In the passage of time, you either get better or get bitter. Your worth either increases or decreases with the passage of time

You will end up a passerby on the sand of time with no impact if you don’t know what to do in the passage (Hallway) of time. How do you increase your time value? By deliberately adding value to yourself through valuable relationships, personal development, increased knowledge, networking, disciplined targeted efforts and researched growth. It is in the passage of time we either pass or fail the test of life.
