Tick Tock

You may delay, but time will not. – Benjamin Franklin

Time marches on, with you or without you.

Whatever it is you want to do, get started.

Whatever it is you need to do (get going or get clear): do it.

  • Are You a Learner or a Knower?

    ByMatthew

    It is the studying that you do after your school days that really counts. Otherwise, you know only that which everyone else knows. – Henry Doherty So many people think they’re done with “school” and “learning” once their undergraduate, or even graduate, days are over.
