Time is of the essence

So two blogs in two days, I'm on a roll!
Recently I've been thinking about time, what I do to fill it, how not to waste it etc.
Not too long ago I read an article about Rabbi Avigdor Miller zt"l and one of the points it kept on pressing was how precious time was to him. He was real with the fact that time runs out, one day, any day. And what we have to do is maximise it when we have it.
Its a scary thought, but one of my best friends was zocheh to be close to Rabbi Noach Weinberg zt"l and he used to quote him the whole time saying "procrastination is death" and of course he's not wrong, when we don't use our time productively we may aswell be dead, because we don't have the opportunity to use it productively when we are gone.
It has helped, I have stopped reading fiction, have cut down my tv viewing, tried to use my time to learn more, but obviously I'm nowhere near optimum time usage, but we'll get there one day!
