Diary of my favorite quotes and aphorisms

Everyone should cherish time. Time cannot be repeated. Time brings wisdom and strength to hardworking people, and only gives time to lazy people. Can leave regrets. Time slips away from you minute by minute, it depends on how you treat it. "An inch of time is worth an inch of gold, and an inch of gold cannot buy an inch of time." This motto made me understand the preciousness of time, and nothing can be exchanged for wasted time.

In the past, I always didn’t value time. I just played and had nothing to do all day long. Because I feel that time is very long. After today, there will be tomorrow, and after tomorrow, there will be the day after tomorrow. I can never have enough fun. Sometimes, my sister reminds me to go study quickly. I said: "Racing is so fun, it's not too late to study again tomorrow." Therefore, my academic performance has always been poor and I am far behind others. One day, I read an article "The Gift of Father Time". The protagonist in it obviously only cared about playing all day long, but when he got old, he ended up empty-handed and accomplished nothing. Only then did he understand the true meaning of the motto his teacher said when he was a child: "An inch of time is worth an inch of gold, but an inch of gold cannot buy an inch of time." But it was already too late, and the lost time could never be recovered. I benefited a lot from reading it. If I don’t study hard again, I will regret it when I get old like Mingming in the article. From then on, I studied hard, listened carefully in class, completed my homework on time, took the time to read and write, and finished everything today without procrastinating. As a result, my studies have improved and now my grades are among the best in the class.

“An inch of time is worth an inch of gold, and an inch of gold cannot buy an inch of time.” This motto has changed my playful habit since childhood. It inspires me to keep moving forward and I will keep it in my heart.
