Time: managerial issues...

"Time" is a component of the measurement system, able to define a sequence of events that have specific (and apparent) limits (duration, intervals) and the quantification of motion (...a small alteration of Wikipedia's definition...).

This is how science defines time. As a component of the scientific community, there are virtually very few things where time does not play a vital role, in what people call, natural phenomena comprehension and scientific observation. A few examples to show the importance of time in our community: scientific observations, experiments, motion, life cycle.

Time is considered as a vital part of every people's daily activities. Unavoidably the question arises: "Can we manage time efficiently?"

To a certain extent, how we manage time is one's personal responsibility! But what happens when, even though we are the masters of our own time management, time actually has been deprived from us? Then we ask ourselves: Who is stealing time from us? My dear readers, the answer to this question is simple: we do! the most important thing is to find out why we do it.

My personal understanding is that we do that subconsciously. I have always had, what I call, a "time pressure" in my mind, always thinking that I could not have enough time to perform my personal activities. Having this feeling that I am about to run out of time! Is it not a very stressing feeling? After years of thinking about it, I think I have come up with the answer to my problem and the answer (as usually) should (and is) be simple. One should focus to the things that matter most.

Once you focus, then all clears out! Then you decide where and how much time to spent to get things done. I believe that time is an asset that runs out very quickly. It is up to us to find the optimum use of it.
