On Time

Hello friends . I have taken a boring topic today called 'punctuality'. Well genuine thought you might be having 'what's more to talk about it which we are don't know' ,absolutely right ; but terribly wrong .Everybody is aware of the goodness and benefits of punctuality but are you aware that an innocent lateness of 5 minutes can cause you your life, or someone else's life. No foul play it's the truth a stark reality we prefer to ignore.Let's see how it works.
An executive in an MNC was late for 10minutes which is quite normal as per Indian work culture .Don't relax hear rest of the story, that day there was a routine auditting the differrence was that the man who took up the work was French and he was totally exasperated with the employee's behaviour result the poor Indian executive was fired without prior notice.He was a weak hearted person and a family man ,the thought of his family gave him real shrug which resulted in an attack.Is it worthy enough to be late to cause a life.
Two students were always late for the class, the teacher was exhausted in telling them that it could cost them dearly oneday. As per habit they didn't listen and repeated the same.As a result they missed so many important points but thought they can make it up some other time and they waited all of sudden the teacher fell sick and was gone on leave for 2 months just before the exams. Another teacher covered the portions in hurry and the students found it difficult to cope with they decided to go the choosey way as most of us do.For them it was not much of hazard for they were regular and the previously covered portions were thorough for them.But for the other two they were helpless nor they got the previous lessons nor the later ones.That really costed them their exams ,they failed and was not able to attend the competitive exams. Look what happened for beign late.
These are only two examples there are lakhs or crores of people out there who innocently be late and never realise it at all.They take it in ' चलता है सुब' kind of attitude but remember even a day can give you trouble.
A doctor who becomes late fails the chance save a patient's life. A politician's late decision threatens nation' s safety we just saw the live example of it a couple of days back. The rest of the people from diversified fields play their part in bringing your country down by being late.
Wasting time ,Not keeping time are devil's of human kind.A person without punctuality cannot be a good organiser,bad organiser cannot be good analyser, weak analysys leads a person to shacks in no time.At last we find our hands empty.
By being late we are wasting our precious time which has to be utilised to nurture ourselves. An unpolished soul is like an unpolished furniture ,if not both will be reduced to barren.Everybody needs time to pamper our soul or in other words mind or else our creativity finds its way to graveyard.It's a terrible situation,think about a nation without creative people ,robust ideas such a nation can be anything but nation.
There is nobody out there other than you to do this , our step is important, if 100 million population of India believe this and act accordingly within no time we will be world's number one country without doubt.
I hope from this second onwards nobody will prefer to be late for life.
Let's see what some famous people have said about it.
''Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save. ''
Will Rogers, New York TImes, Apr. 29, 1930US humorist & showman (1879 - 1935)
''Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you. ''
Carl SandburgUS biographer & poet (1878 - 1967)

Nothing is as far away as one minute ago.
