Things have to happen right away or in the next ten minutes. This is becoming an expectation; this is becoming the norm. Technology is faster and will go even quicker as we advance in life. The answer to all your questions is one click away. Your following recipe and your next “how to” DIY video are easily accessible on your computer or your phone.

Technology is accessible everywhere — for people who can afford it — so you are expected to use it whenever you need to or are asked to. This is particularly true in the corporate world, where competition creates a perpetual race.

A publicly-traded company has to file an 8-K form within five days after getting information considered “material.” This latter is frequently used for information that could impact the stock market and thus influence shareholder portfolios.

Time is also a keyword regarding intellectual property. After filing a provisional patent with the agency, a one-year countdown starts. You have one year to bring proof of concept that will trigger 20 years of intellectual protection. This is the kickoff of another race.

In the drug development world, this means most of the time, you need to commercialize your molecule as early as possible to benefit from the exclusivity covered by your patent. Without forgetting that the sooner your molecule is on the market, the sooner suffering patients will be treated and hopefully cured.

Time is of the essence, and sharp personal organization could make a difference.
