Time is on my side

I’ve been talking to a lot of people lately about time. For some it feels like time has slowed down. I know it feels that way for me. While others are not sure how they are spending their days, time seems to evaporate, and there never seems to be enough of it. The thing, we all have the same amount of time. We all have 24 hour days. Where we differ is how we view and use that time.

Here are seven different perspectives on time as defined by IPEC:

  1. Time is continually working against me. I never have enough time.

  2. Time is something I continually fight against to get everything I need to done.

  3. Time is a natural part of life, and although it’s limited, I can and will develop effective strategies to manage it.

  4. There are so many ways I can contribute, and I want to use my time to make sure I make the greatest contribution with the time I have.

  5. The way I use my time is totally up to me. I can relax and do nothing, or I can create or do something exciting. It’s completely my choice. Time is a gift.

  6. Time stands still whenever I am in flow and completely focused on the present moment.

  7. Time is a linear illusion created in the human experience to measures what appears to be a limited life.

Which perspective of time most closely resonates with how you feel most of the time?
