“You will never ‘find’ time for anything. If you want to find time, you must make it.” So goes the saying about time and what to make of it. Nowadays, even with sophisticated gadgets that tell time and equipment that supposedly make life easier, many people still woefully exclaim that they do not have enough time in their hands. This is particularly true to people who want to get rich fast; they want to accumulate wealth in the shortest possible time. One obvious example is the popularity of lottery and other similar games of chance in many countries. When the jackpot runs into millions of dollars, long queues are seen around lottery outlets.
Everything today can almost be had in an instant—coffee, noodles, laundry, even fast cash loans ! But aside from the daily convenience of these things, there is also a bad side to having things in an instant. Like what was pointed out earlier, people want to get rich quick, and this attitude cannot be good all the time. There are scrupulous business people who sell things at outrageous mark-ups, to make a killing as quickly as possible. There are also employees who want the best promotions as soon as possible and will do anything to get it.
But becoming financially secure, or wealthy even, does not work that way. Take for example people who win the lottery. More often than not, people never hear from the winners after they are given the prize money. Maybe most of these “lucky” lottery winners are now bankrupt or back to where they were before they won the millions of dollars from the pot money. Maybe they have thrown away their winnings because unwise spending or just spending period. Like they say, “Easy come, easy go.” Now, how about that ambitious employee who just kept on scheming for the best promotion? Maybe, he or she will eventually get it but to what cost? Or, what about those businesses that was closed down by the authorities because it was overpricing and overcharging its goods or services?
Truth to tell, it takes time to earn money and make it grow to fruition. And, time can be a powerful tool in the hands of the wise. The younger a person realizes this, the more opportunities he or she could find to build wealth. The two keys are patience and perseverance.
