What is time? ⏳ A way of living that chooses the present from the future and 3 exercises 📝 Listen to 'Magic Time' 🎶


Thank you for visiting.


I appreciate your likes, follows, comments,
and additions to your magazines ♡


Thank you, as always ♪


This time,
I've been thinking about time,
and I would like to share it
with you, the reader.




⏰ What is time?


1. The "time" we feel


To us, time is...

  • something that flows from the past to the future

  • something that cannot be stopped

  • something given to everyone equally


It is that kind of existence, isn't it?


The hands of a clock move in one direction.


We cannot return to yesterday, but
is that really "time itself"
?




2. Time in Physics


In physics, time is considered one of the
dimensions.

For example,
in Albert Einstein's
theory of relativity,

  • time is not absolute

  • the faster you move, the slower time passes

  • time passes more slowly in places with strong gravity

is what is stated.


In other words, time
does not pass at the same speed for everyone.


Here, for the first time,
the common belief that "time is absolute"
is shaken.



3. Time in Philosophy


In philosophy,
time becomes even more ambiguous.


  • Isn't time something created by human consciousness?

  • Does the moment called 'now' really exist?

  • Where are the past and the future?


There is also a perspective that considers time to be a
'framework of perception' rather than a physical phenomenon.


In other words,

time can also be called'a concept for understanding the order of events'.

it can be said.




4. Psychological time


What is interesting is perceived time.


  • Fun times pass in an instant

  • Boring times feel long

  • A year feels long when you are a child


Even with the same 60 minutes,
the way it feels is completely different.


This means that,
while time is something "objective,"
it is also something "subjective" at the same time.




5. So, what is time?


In summary, time is

  • physically, a "dimension"

  • philosophically, a "concept"

  • psychologically, a "sensation"


And for us,

could it not be called a "framework for recognizing change"?

Without change,


we cannot feel time.
we cannot feel time.


Here, we return to the initial question.

If time is not an absolute flow, but rather
a framework of our perception,
then thinking of it as "flowing from the future"
can also become one valid
"choice of how to live."




⏳ How to use your life



Every day, we say things like,
this.

"I don't have time"
"If only I had more time"
"I wasted time"

As if time were
something that exists somewhere outside of us.

Is that really the case?


It's not that you don't have time, but that you are lost in how to use your life.


The time given to us is,
after all,"the length of our life."

One hour is
one hour of your life.

When you think of it that way,
I believe time is"how you use your life"
itself.

Days chased by busyness.
Feelings of impatience.
Anxiety about the future.

These, surely,
"how you want to live"might be born from the feeling that time is passing while that remains vague.





🌠 Choosing today from the future


If your self 10 years from now
were looking at today,
how would they want you to
spend this hour?


Time spent scrolling through social media.
Preparation for a challenge.
Time spent facing someone important.

When you look at the present from the future,
time is no longer
something to be consumed.


Time becomessomething you choose.




🌅 Time is the way of living itself


Time is surely
our way of living itself.


Even with the same 24 hours,
it can be a meaningful day,
or it can be a day that just drifted by.


The difference is
not the amount of time,
but how you engage with it.

How will you use today's hour?

The accumulation of that
becomes your life.




■ Exercise 1: Look at today from your 10-years-older self


Take just 5 minutes of quiet time.

Close your eyes and
imagine yourself 10 years from now.

・Where are you working?

・What kind of expression do you have?

・What kind of people are you surrounded by?

That future version of you
is watching you today.

And they ask you this:

"How will you spend that one hour today?"

The answer doesn't have to be a big challenge.

・Read 10 pages of a book

・Send one message

・Write your thoughts in a notebook

From the perspective of the future,choose an 'hour you can be proud of'.Just by doing that, the quality of your time will change.






■ Exercise 2: Inventory of Time


Try writing this down on paper.

How I spend my time today

・Time that passed aimlessly

・Time I actually wanted to use

・Time that moved my heart


When you list them separately,
the habits of how you spend your life
will become visible.


It's not that you don't have enough time,
it's just that it's flowing by unconsciously.




■ Exercise 3: Schedule based on the future


When you make plans,
do you fill in
your 'free time'?

Instead, try thinking like this.

Which plans will your future self be grateful for?


Your priorities will change.

From a standard of busyness to a
standard of meaning.


Why not give today's hour
as a gift to your future self?



Thank you
for reading♪
