Welcome to my TEDx Talk Ep.9: Playing with time

I don’t have time… I can't make it... I should’ve done it when I could… I wish I had, but I never did… I've said or thought about these phrases thousands of times in my 22 years of existence and I'm sure I'm not the only one. I suppose that all of us have at some point let time slip by, not realizi…
