    Steve Jobs once said “Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve encountered to help make the big choices in life.” This may seem a little extreme, however, keeping this in the back of one’s head will serve as a reminder that time management is more than just a phrase thrown around to describe a seemingly unattainable trait. Managing time is an integral part of living a fulfilling life for everyone, particularly U.S. Navy personnel. Junior officers in the Navy need to figure out how to adequately manage their time because proper time management results in a more efficient force.

Now that I have defined some terms, I can more clearly outline the premises of my argument. Like the presentist, I will argue that the only events or objects that exist in time are those that are in the present (REFERENCE). The past and future do not exist as a part of a mind-independent reality.…
