"Por corta que sea la vida la hacemos aún más corta con el descuido en el desperdicio del tiempo"

Simplified Meaning:

Life is already short, but we often make it even shorter by not using our time well. Imagine you have a day off with lots of plans, but you end up spending most of it watching TV shows you don’t really care about. By the end of the day, you feel like you haven’t done anything meaningful. This is similar to how we sometimes waste large parts of our lives on unimportant activities, leaving less time for things that truly matter to us, like spending time with loved ones, learning new things, or achieving our goals. To make the most of our time, we need to be mindful about how we spend each moment. Instead of scrolling through social media for hours, you could read a book, take a walk, or call a friend. Planning your day with intention helps you avoid feeling regretful about how you’re using your time. By being more aware and making better choices about how we spend our days, we can make our lives feel richer and longer, even though we can’t add more hours to the clock.
