Save Your Nature, Save Your Time It prevents you from following that pattern of life in which you pursue only your own self-interest. Thus, less pocket money saves a person’s nature. It saves a person from ruining his natural qualities. It makes one Mr. Nature rather than Mr. Artificial. There is no doubt that being true to one’s nature is the source of all good and turning away from one’s nature is the source of all evil. Less pocket money prevents you from leading an unnatural life, for the simple reason that you are unable to pay its price. The truth is that adhering to one’s nature develops good character, while turning away from it develops bad character. Nature, as described by the Creator Himself, is the right framework for any individual. For any human being the secret of life is following one’s nature. Doing so leads to right development. A person who departs from his true nature cannot develop his personality in the correct way. The second important principle is: “Money lost can be earned again, but lost time is lost forever.” After his own nature, the greatest asset of a person is time. Success comes to one who utilizes his time. One who wastes his time will fail in life. But, adopting this way of life is not very simple. It requires a wise teacher to instruct one. Akash Ambani found that teacher in his mother. His mother serves as a role model for other women. Everyone is born with two great assets. Internally, it is his God-given nature and externally, it is that precious thing called time. One who recognizes these two divine gifts can ensure success.
