The clock is always ticking.  Time is always passing.  Time you can't get back to do the things you need and want to do.  These past few weeks I've clocked several hours searching for the right people/partners to grow my team.  I've been met with no response, and slow response, among other strange behaviors from professionals looking to be employed.  But was my time wasted? Only when I waited too long to get no response or a super slow response.  

I'm on the clock in my search.  So I don't have time to wonder why I'm not hearing from someone or when I will.  All I know is that the clock waits on no one.  So why should I?
