All time is well-spent.

  1. Sure, you can't save it, hold it in reserve for a later date but you certainly can waste it.

  2. I once was in a four hour company meeting where all employees read some section of the standard operating procedures aloud to each other. This is perhaps not even a comment on the aphorism, but a mental spasm caused by it. :)

  3. Ooh. I wish that were the case. I've seen time wasted now and again and I hate when someone wastes mine.

  4. I've always thought that, that there is no 'wrong way' to spend your time. I think that's why, at worst, I'll say, "I could have spent that BETTER."

  5. So true! Even time spent on making a mistake...there is growth to be found there and how could that be a waste? How positive...my favorite!

  6. I like this idea! I like that every moment has value. You are now forcing me to reevaluate a power-point laden 3-day meeting I endured. Perhaps I was building patience. And maybe even solidarity with my fellow sufferers:)

  7. And if it ain't spent well, well, at least you can get your money back!

  9. Time can sometimes be well-spent and time can also be wasted. But you’re right, time is a paradox, so given that, just having time, just being alive, is time well-spent.

  10. No regrets. No returns. Time spend at your blog is always time well spent!

  12. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

  13. Even the time when somebody asks you whether you have the time.
