Time is the scarcest resource and unless it is managed nothing else can be managed.

One cannot buy, rent or hire more time. The supply of time is totally inelastic. No matter how high the demand, the supply will not go up. There is no price for it. Time is totally perishable and cannot be stored. Yesterday's time is gone forever, and will never come back. Time is always in short supply. There is no substitute for time. Everything requires time. All work takes place in, and uses up time. Yet most people take for granted this unique, irreplaceable and necessary resource.

Management by objective works - if you know the objectives. Ninety percent of the time you don't.

Management by objectives works if you first think through your objectives. Ninety percent of the time you haven't.

Until we can manage time, we can manage nothing else.
