Summary: <p>Listen to episode 150 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Saving Time | Productivity | Making the Most Out of Life. Edited &amp; adapted from The Aim of Life by Philip Stafford Moxom.</p><br> <p><strong>Motivational Podcast Excerpt</strong>: <em>Today, I want to talk with you of time and how to save it. Why should we save time? Because time is opportunity for life, and time lost cannot be recovered; it is lost forever. Each moment comes to us rich in possibilities, bringing to us duty, privilege, and the call for achievement. All life is condensed into the moment that we call "now," and the wasting of a moment is, for that moment, the wasting of a life. </em></p><br> <p><em>"Dost thou love life?” said Poor Richard, “then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of." The chief interests of life are moral and spiritual; all else is scaffolding and instrument; all else takes its significance from these. Not knowledge and achievement, but character and destiny, are life’s fundamental concerns; and in relation to these, time has a transcendent value. </em></p><br> <p><em>"We all complain," said Seneca, “of the shortness of time; and yet we have more than we know what to do with. Our lives are spent either in doing nothing at all (or doing nothing to the purpose), or in doing nothing that we ought to do. We are always complaining that our days are few, and acting as though there would be no end of them."</em></p><br> <p><strong>Related Motivational Podcasts:</strong></p><br> <p><a title="Elbert Hubbard Books" href="http://podcast.livinghour.org/e/the-secret-of-life-elbert-hubbard/">The Secret of Life &amp; My Success</a></p><br> <p><a title="Creating Your Ideal Life" href="http://podcast.livinghour.org/e/how-to-create-an-ideal-life/">How to Create an Ideal Life</a></p>
