Time is like currency. You spend time completing tasks, eating meals, working out, and hanging out with friends. When you spend your time, it is not lost, but rather exchanged for something else. You may receive a salary, full belly, stronger muscles, or simply an enjoyable time. This basic transaction occurs every day of your life. Just like currency, time can have a different value depending on where it is spent.
