Life is like a flight of steps towards the Godhead. You have your foot on the first step when you are born; each day is a step that must be climbed; so, be steady, watchful and earnest. Do not count the steps ahead or exult over the steps behind. One step at a time and that well climbed, is enough success to be satisfied with and to give you encouragement for the next one. Do not slide from the step you have got up on. Every step is a victory to be cherished; every day wasted is a defeat to be ashamed of. Slow and steady - let that be your maxim! Adhere to a regular routine. Maintain discipline of time.

- Divine Discourse, March 17, 1961.

We are powerless before Time but Time’s Creator and Director
can be won and attained by the wise use of Time. - Baba
