Struck me today that time is the greatest equaliser. Everyone can be born with varying amounts of smarts, wealth, looks etc. But everyone has the same no of hours in a day. It’s what we make of it. What is the opportunity cost of our decisions?
I used to work long hours for money which I find silly now because I was squandering away the real currency of life which is time. I also used to think that the no of hours worked was some kind of badge of honor. But I was so wrong..
Now, the real badge of honor to me is the things you get done and the impact you make in the hours you work + getting the time to have a life outside of work. Hence meaningful work and meaningful relationships became my goal.
