Summary
This quote suggests that being punctual and always being on time can actually consume one's precious time. It implies that adhering strictly to schedules and deadlines gives the illusion of being efficient but in reality may lead to a disregard for the present moment and a lack of quality in one's work. It warns against the overemphasis on punctuality, reminding us to be mindful of how we allocate our time and not to sacrifice our overall well-being and creativity for the sake of a strict adherence to punctuality.
