线（句子）

收集了一些自己很喜欢或者很受启发的句子，在以后表达中可以有意识的应用，增加表达的色彩和亮点。

- "I don't have time," often means "It's not a priority."

- We build the lives we want, and then time saves itself.

- It's about looking at the whole of one's time and seeing where the good stuff can go. I truly believe this. There is time. Even if we are busy, we have time for what matters. And when we focus on what matters, we can build the lives we want in the time we've got.
