Essay / The Varied Effects of Social Sayings - 1230
Most people, at some point in their lives, have aspired to become a CEO, a world-class musician, a professional athlete, or an internationally renowned artist. But achieving these goals will take a lot of work and dedication. Probably one of the biggest reasons why some people achieve these goals is the saying “time is money.” This expression seems to have always existed; it’s as much a part of our culture as “winners never give up” or “reach for the stars.” These three elements, and “time is money” in particular, reinforce socially reinforced behaviors that many people don't even think twice about, even though they unconsciously obey them on a daily basis.

This is where the company's famous maxims come into play, providing a foundation upon which those who desire to succeed can build. Most often, these aphorisms help the one who seeks prosperity. However, like all things, socially reinforced conduct is not free from flaws or blatant lies. Although the saying "time is money" can lead to the achievement of greatness, if an individual is not careful in its implementation, socially accepted axioms like this can result in and will lead to failure..
