Value Of Time - Part 2
After the introduction to the value of time, we are to continue getting deeper in this important subject. We've established the premise that there is nothing more precious to a person than the time he/she has on disposal. In that light, it is logical that people would cherish and treasure their time but it is not always so. Why is that?
Because there are needs which every one of us has, and they need to be fulfilled. The needs are what makes spend our time and exchange it for material gains. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to survive and procreate, which are the two basic needs hardwired in our DNA since the first light of the first day. Besides the basic needs, there are also other, more complex ones. This makes it more clear and puts needs in perspective:
( Recently some people added wif-fi and battery under 'survival' :D )
What value does your time have? It depends on your choices. The more you want, the larger your needs become, and less time you'll have. The less you need, the fewer material gains you need to fulfil and that will lead you to have more time which you can spend in pursuing whatever makes you happy and fulfilled. Logically we've established a new premise, however crazy it may sound - the richest man is the one who needs nothing, not the one who has it all.
Let's get to the value-time equation. It is an exponential curve. The more money you make, the less time you have and it grows exponentially as you can see the image below. Meaning that there is a limit of money you can make in exchange for your time. At one point, you cannot make more money because there are not enough hours in a day.
If your work makes you happy and it is an honest assessment, then I guess, you've solved the greatest riddle of all ages. People who spend time doing what they love and make enough material gains to be able to follow that walk of life, are the ones who have connected all ends and filled up all holes regarding the time-value equation. At those terms, work turns into pleasure., After all, we are in pursuit of this, that or some other kind of pleasure, whether we want to admit it or not.
This doesn't mean that they've solved everything because there are other equations which apply to life. Family, hobbies, self-development, spirituality...etc. However, if one is happy and satisfied with one's work, it solves many things and opens many possibilities.

Remember that the time is spent with each second, regardless of the market prices. :)
