Secret Asset

It is invisible, but always with us. It brings growth, but also death. It can be our greatest enemy, but also our best friend. It�s always moving, yet unwavering. It can bring hope but also hopelessness. Its nature is change, and it changes nature. It seasons us, teaches us experience, but also erodes us. It can work for us or against us. It is never neutral, and it never stops.

What is it?

Time.

The human race has conquered space. We have cleared out wildernesses and turned them into cities. Travel and telecommunications have allowed us to transcend great distances.

But what about time: Have we conquered time? Most people would answer that we can�t conquer time. We can manage it, but never conquer it, because the clock continues to tick whether we like it or not. We cannot stop the clock nor can we turn it back.

Time is energy. Each moment is potent, filled with enormous power. Each moment is an opportunity, never neutral. By tapping the energy of time, we conquer it. When we utilize and actualize the energy of the moment, time becomes our ally, launching us into another dimension. If we do not use the moment, the moment �dies�, and like deadweight it contributes to the erosion of our beings, as the clock of our lives ticks down.

We have the power to eternalize each moment in our lives. By filling it with meaning and spirit, time doesn�t merely pass but rather becomes a catalyst for achieving immortality.

Be reminded to �Look at your day. How many of its moments are just fleeting specks lost in the shuffle of life. But then comes that one moment � just one second that can turn into magic, into an experience that lives on forever."
