 I
realize that a rational person does not want to waste time. But wasting time
implies knowingly squandering time. If you honestly believe you can accomplish
something, and you seriously endeavor to do it, then you are not wasting time.
You are honestly pursuing values, and that’s what life is about. Wasting time
would consist of sleeping, being a perpetual couch potato and only doing the
bare minimum required for survival—or worse, even mooching off of others. THESE
things are a tragic waste of time. But in the life of any accomplished person,
there are lots of values being pursued. Some goals are realized and many are
not, but the pursuit is never a waste of time. Failures, by the way, usually
lead to discoveries and corrections that eventually result in successes.
