: Sample Answer

Primary school is our first academic educational place and we star learning many new things from there. This is the place where the base of a student is made and that’s why things we learn in our primary school last for a long. One important lesson that I learned from my primary school is the value of time. In every stage of our life, we have to value the time we have and this lesson has helped me throughout my life

I learned it throughout the 4-5 years I studied in the primary school. I was only 5 years old when I first got admitted into the primary school and had been there till I became 10 years old. I have heard it from many teachers of my primary school. They told lots of stories and gave example from history and real events about the value of time. From my experience, I have also learned and understood it

If fact our lives are nothing but a sum of time. We come here for a predefined amount of time and we have so many things to accomplish and do to make our lives meaningful. We have our duties and responsibilities and those duties and responsibilities changes and expands with time. So being able to do things in their perfect time is the main mantra of life

From my experience, I have learned that time is priceless and we can never get it back once gone. So utilizing it is the most important task in our life. Everything has its perfect time to be done and no matter what we do and how much effort we put, later on, we can’t change the actions we take with times. I have learned that, if I neglect the time and keep undone things that I should have done, it comes back to us like a boomerang. Accomplishing thing in time and doing them with dedication is the first rule to achieve success. Whenever I have values time and worked accordingly, I had been able to fulfill my aim and expectation. When I neglected time and kept things undone, I regretted it. From those experiences, I have started valuing time and that has brought me several successes that I desired. I still try to value my times and thus I can save myself from regretting later
