Each time wasted is an oppurtunity wasted.
well that could be good news according to this analysis;
Time (seconds) not utilised = Oppurtunity not utilised
eliminate the words 'not utilised' in the equation. we are left with;
Time (seconds) = oppurtunity
i.e. 1 second = 1 oppurtunity
meaning no longer oppurtunity lost can not be regain but each oppurtunity missed is an existence of another.
