Given that human life is short—rarely exceeding a hundred years—the most critical factor to consider is the efficiency of how we use our time. Because life is brief, we must learn to view time realistically. Time is inherently fair; whether one is a king, a billionaire, or a beggar, everyone receives exactly 24 hours a day. No one is given more than another.
However, the efficiency in using those hours varies greatly. A king uses his time like a king, enabling him to do vast amounts of good for the public. A billionaire uses his time like a billionaire, allowing him to acquire great wealth.
Consider carefully what you wish to be. Though we all have 24 hours, the outcome depends entirely on how the owner of that time chooses to use it efficiently.
