This are important in the business industry. a of lot people doesn't understand how to read financial terms that we can use and consider for our daily transactions.The Philippine government now, specially the Department of  Education are trying to impose and teach  in the elementary level students the important of financial literacy.which is good so that the children will know, in their early age on how to use money in a wiser or profitable way.At an early age i even teach my niece on  how to start her small business (selling green manggo in front of our house) so that she will learn how to handle and grow the money  and how money really works.

Importance of time


Importance of time

I remember the time when life was a little simplier. My friend told me that during the ancient, pre-historic era, there was only one shakey's pizza store in the Philippines. And it was located in faraway Angeles city. She was only twelve years old when her father would bring her there for a two hour drive, just to eat pizza. Her father will eat the two slices of pizza and she will eat the rest. And that's their way of bonding. I realized that things have changed now. Today we are no longer go out of town to eat pizza. We don’t even have to leave the house. We just have to dial the delivery hotline and presto! You can eat your pizza without any sweat. And sometimes if its late its free. Yes! That’s the trend now. The fastest your service, the more customers you will have.

i remember that my friend also told me that she and her mother walked together to cubao and they loved passing by that tiny shoemart (SM), if you can still remember that ancient SM that sold only shoes and nothing else. Today SM consumes about 30% of the geographical land space of the republic of the Philippines. And it sells everything except nuclear reactors and live piranha.

what am i trying to point out here is that time moves so fast that sometimes i feel that life is passing me by, not slowly either, but with ropes of steam and spark-spatters wheels and a horse roar of power or terror. Its passing, yet I'm the one who's doing all the moving. Each of us has 24 hours a day and no one else can live our lives for us. This obvious yet profound fact that time is potentially the major limiting factor in our personal life. But most people now spend their time into something that not so important. Well, it’s really hard to know what things to prioritize we should learn to do it in order to be successful and use our time wisely. Because as the saying goes

Time has been transformed, and we have changed; it has advanced and set us in motion; it has unveiled its face, inspiring us with bewilderment and exhilaration.
