I am being intentional with how I spend my time. I am focusing more on what is important and trying to spend less wasted time.
Cause let’s admit it. The greatest commodity we have is our time.
We can get more money, get more space, but once time is gone. It is gone.
I am being intentional.
It is the one commodity we cannot get back.
