WHERE you were doing WHAT one year ago? Middle June and just only one year ago, I was in Madrid with many projects in my mind and happy for the wondered return to Spain after four years living and working in England.One year is the measure for the chronological time passed by, but it’s not the amount of emotional time consumed according to a Barcelona University Professor and Psychologist who write the book “The emotional time”. I read his book this weekend. The concept is quite simple, when you’re having fun or enjoying what you’re doing (playing your favorite game, listening to the music you like,…) , times goes by quickly, but in the opposite way, when you are waiting for something, queuing or doing something you don’t like or enjoy, those activities look like it took you ages to finish them!
We live in a society where chronological time is basic and is established to allow coordination, behavioral rules and civilization progress, but we usually forget about emotional time. We forget about our internal clock that is continuously measuring emotionally our activities. We forget how important is to feel synchronize and on-track with it.
Time is a high valuable thing that is giving to us and our only purpose is to use it with total freedom and accordingly to our hurt. In another post I talked about time management, Today I talked about time again, but the emotional side of it and how vital is the right use of it.
Thanks and smile,
