Time Lessons

I have read a valuable lesson today about time. It is so simple and sometimes, we forget it.

"Here's the #1 most overlooked secret of marketing, of growing your organization, of building trust and creating for the long haul. Actually, it has two parts:
Show up on time:...If you want to build trust, you need to be trustworthy. The simplest test of trustworthiness for most people is whether or not you keep your promises, and the first promises you make are about time.
Cherish my time: The second part is closely related. It has to do with respect. You respect my time when you don't waste it...
In a society where so many people have enough, few people have time to spare. When you waste it (by breaking a promise and being late) or abuse it (by viewing your time as worth more than mine), we respond by distrusting you, ignoring you, and eventually moving on."

-from Seth Godin-

Time is gold. Whatever we want to do, we need to respect the time. Time's for beginning. Time's for doing. Time's for ending. I want to add to this is keeping those 2 standard even to yourself. If you plan to do something already, make sure you do it and follow until the end.

Keep promises to yourself too.
