And just like that, you’ve spent a few more minutes of your life reading about how fast time flies—ironic, isn’t it? 🔄🤔 If these quotes proved anything, it’s that none of us really know how to manage a schedule; we’re all just out here trying to outrun our deadlines while simultaneously hitting the snooze button for the fourth time. 😴⏰ Whether you’re perpetually early or “fashionably late” to your own life, remember that time is the only thing you can’t buy more of—unless you count buying a faster coffee machine. ☕️⚡️ So, stop stressing about the ticking clock, embrace the fact that you’ll probably be late to something tomorrow, and try to enjoy the present moment (before it becomes the past in about three seconds). ✌️😎⏳✨
