Time management is a misnomer, the challenge is to manage ourselves.
What you do has far greater impact than what you say.
See every problem as an opportunity to exercise creative energy.
If you're proactive, you don't have to wait for circumstances or other people to create perspective expanding experiences. You can consciously create your own.
Happiness, like unhappiness, is a proactive choice.
In the end, life teaches us what is important, and that is family.
