Where would the world be without salt? Too little salt or too much will cause imbalance. Salt is all around and used in many different ways. Salt plays a crucial role in many things such as the body, food, and on roads.
Just as salt is crucial and necessary so is a schedule. Schedules are crucial components in many things which impacts workflow, supply chain, and time management across industries and day-to-day life. Much like salt, scheduling is an ingredient in life and business. It usually is present in some way or capacity in our lives.
