  The Value of Time

  A proverb says, “Time is money”. But in my opinion, time is even more precious than money. “Time is life.” Why? Because when money is spent, we can earn it back. However, when time is gone, it will never return. This is the reason why we must value time.

  But it is a pity that there are a lot of people who do not know the importance of time. They spend their precious time smoking, drinking and gambling. They do not realize that wasting time is equal to wasting a part of their valuable life.

  In a word, we should get into the good habit of saving time. Do not put off what can be done today until tomorrow. Laziness will not only bring us failure but also lead us to the road of poverty.
