We both, Warren Buffett and I, insist on a lot of time being available almost every day to just sit and think. That is very uncommon in American business. We read and think. - Charlie Munger
Time and money spent in helping men to do more for themselves is far better than mere giving. - Henry Ford
It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste. - Henry Ford
We all are learning, modifying, or destroying ideas all the time. Rapid destruction of your ideas when the time is right is one of the most valuable qualities you can acquire. You must force yourself to consider arguments on the other side. - Charlie Munger

We are living in a culture entirely hypnotized by the illusion of time, in which the so-called present moment is felt as nothing but an infinitesimal hairline between an all-powerfully causative past and an absorbingly important future. We have no present. Our consciousness is almost completely preoccupied with memory and expectation. We do not realize that there never was, is, nor will be any other experience than present experience. We are therefore out of touch with reality. We confuse the world as talked about, described, and measured with the world which actually is. We are sick with a fascination for the useful tools of names and numbers, of symbols, signs, conceptions and ideas.
Schedule your personal time with the same priority and attention to detail as you schedule your business time. - Charles J. Givens

We don't want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker's dam is the history we make today. - Henry Ford
People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine. - Brian Tracy
Waste is worse than loss. The time is coming when every person who lays claim to ability will keep the question of waste before him constantly. The scope of thrift is limitless. - Thomas Edison
Time is really the only capital that any human being has and the thing that he can least afford to waste or lose. - Thomas Edison
Most of us spend too much time on what is urgent and not enough time on what is important. - Stephen Covey
To spend time is to pass it in a specified manner. To waste time is to expend it thoughtlessly or carelessly. We all have time to either spend or waste and it is our decision what to do with it. But once passed, it is gone forever. - Bruce Lee
