Is it true that were born equal? The discussion may be way more complicated if we talk about equality. But let's make it short. Let's consider that all people have:-
- Equal number of hours in a day; i.e. 24 hours.
- A brain to use.
Nothing unfair about time. The amount of time is fixed for everyone. It is same. No person can claim to have more. As far as the brain is concerned, each one of them is unique in many ways. But each brain comes with interesting abilities. It depends how we use both our time and brain.
The 24 Hours
How do you use your time? Do you act or get acted upon the whole time? Do you sleep half of the time allocated to you everyday? The thing is; everyone of us has the same amount of time. We may have different priorities and needs but we cannot deny the fact that we have ample amount of time and we are not treated unfairly by nature.
What matters is how we utilize this fixed amount of time. Here are some of the great things we can do to make the best use of available time.
Set goals with timelines and follow them up daily until achieved.
Allocate at least an hour to learn something new. It can be anything as simple as a Steemit tutorial.
Divide our time into four portions; one each dedicated for betterment of our body, mind, and soul.
Spend time with important people in our lives; people we are close to.
Invest in new relationships.
Expand our perspective through reading books and articles.
Polish our skills.
Create and publish a Steemit blog post.
There is so much that can be done in 24 hours. Written above are just a few of the examples. If we pursue great things by doing small chunks of them daily on a consistent basis, there is all the possibility that we will end up reaping huge longterm rewards.
The Brain
There are too many types of brain. Left brain and right brain for example. Then we have a host of categorizations of brain's capacity. One popular metric is IQ that each person has. But here's a fact about IQ.
IQ helps in analytic ability upto a certain level, say 120 score on standard IQ tests, but as the measure of IQ goes beyond 120, there is no significant edge to a higher IQ person over a person having IQ score of 120.
So, IQ does help but up to a certain point. But guess what? 95 % of the population has IQ score between 70 and 130 and that's the average range. Therefore, most of us, almost all, are blessed with good enough IQ levels. We have been blessed with brains which are comparable to others. Again, the nature has been kind to be fair in allocation. Here are somethings which can be done to utilize your brain better.
Set goals.
Learn something new.
Invest in relationships.
Expand our perspective through reading books and articles.
Polish our skills.
Create and publish a Steemit blog post.
Plan to start a company.
Teach people what you know.
In short, anything. You can do anything with your mind. Your brain is such a gift if you just realize how to use it properly.

Using Brain & Time
The combination is lethal. It can take you to the new heights. Using your brain and time on the right things will bring vertical improvement in your life. It will ensure that you do what is best for you in the longterm. You can learn anything and accomplish any task.
For a successful life ahead, all you need to do is to realize that you have two of the best gifts of nature; time and brain. After realization, the only thing needed to be done is to use these two gifts in our best interest. It needs discipline to pull off but proper utilization of these two assets is crucial to a better life.
Conclusion
Most people live life never realizing that they can do wonders with it. They never understand and tap the true potential that their brain has and waste time on futile and superficial things. By using the time we have and the brain we are blessed with, we can make significant difference in our lives and in the world around us.
