If time is the most precious thing, then wasting time is the greatest waste. – B. Franklin

No person is born with a "built-in" internal clock. Children learn to keep track of time thanks to their parents, daily routine, school. Sometimes the habit of synchronizing your behavior with the rest of the world takes months to develop, sometimes it takes several years. In the end, we all adapt. And now the standard time units are becoming our faithful companions. This system is perfect: minutes flow into hours, hours into days of the week, days of the week into months and years. But there is a big difference in how we perceive the passage of time.

Can time move at different speeds?

Sometimes it seems to us that time flies like a jet plane, and sometimes that it moves at the speed of a turtle. Suddenly comes the realization that another January has come, but now it has almost come to an end. It seems that the older we get, the faster the years follow each other. On the other hand, you're standing at a crosswalk at a red light and can't wait for those long 90 seconds to expire. It's like an eternity separates you from crossing to the other side of the road.

Study of the perception of the passage of time

Scientists have always been interested in this problem. Why do short periods of time seem to us infinitely long, while long ones follow each other at breakneck speed? Some of them devote most of their lives to studying the issue. Let's try to figure out what is the reason for this distortion.

The main conditions under which time dilation is observed

If you collect numerous stories of different people together, you can track that everyone's circumstances are different. But all of them entailed the feeling of slowly creeping hands on the dial. Conventionally, experts divided all these conditions into six main categories: intense suffering (danger), intense pleasure, expectation (boredom), an altered state of consciousness with the help of drugs, meditation, and novelty. Below are some illustrative examples.

Intensity of sensations and permanent boredom

Violence and danger are singled out in a separate category due to the intensity of mental and physical sensations. For example, it will always seem to a wounded soldier lying on the battlefield that help will never come. Also, the military often describe that the very picture of the battle is seen by them, as if in slow motion filming. But sometimes strong emotions can be associated with pleasure and ecstasy (here time really gives us the opportunity to enjoy the moment.) The state of permanent boredom is also singled out in a separate category: a queue for a doctor's appointment, an arrest for 15 days, a seller without an influx of customers. On the one hand, these situations are sharply limited in time, but when a person is placed in waiting conditions, it seems to him that the hands on the dial do not move at all.

Based on an altered state of consciousness or novelty

People often experience a distortion of time perception when they experience an altered state of consciousness. This is facilitated by the drug-induced experience of taking LSD or mescaline. High levels of concentration or meditation can also affect the subjective perception of the passage of time. Athletes who are in the waiting area often talk about this. Finally, there is shock or novelty. This happens every time you start learning some difficult skill or are on vacation in an exotic area.

What is the paradox?

In all these categories, there is a clear pattern. All of them distort time at the moment when almost nothing happens to the observer, or too much happens. But you will never feel this in your ordinary activities. In other words, time slows down when the situation can be assessed as too easy or too difficult.

As for the dial or calendar, each time block has its own standards. They are no different from each other. Each minute is made up of 60 seconds, and a day is made up of 24 hours. Standard time units acquire a significant difference if they begin to be perceived from the point of view of the "density of human experience." Thus, perception can be influenced by objective and subjective information.

High experience density

The density of experience is high when there is a lot going on in a short amount of time. War veterans know this firsthand. On the other hand, the density of experience can be equally high even when almost nothing happens hour after hour. People who are in solitary confinement will tell you about this. It would seem that this time is completely empty, but people with a stable psyche are able to completely change their worldview, and people with a weaker nervous system go crazy with obsession. All these circumstances place people in unusual conditions. The paradox is that people tend to focus their attention on strange circumstances, which only increase the density of experience that affects the perception of a standard time unit. Thus, distortion is formed.

When time flies by

We have found that time moves slowly when the density of experience is extremely high. It is logical to assume the opposite. Time will fly by unnoticed when the density of experience related to a standard time block is abnormally low. When you tend to look back (to the immediate or distant past), life periods seem to shrink. Time compression provides two general conditions. Let's take a closer look at them next.

Routine tasks

Adults in the workplace are surrounded by many daily responsibilities. All of them are repeated from day to day with only minor changes. But the implementation of each of them requires increased attention and concentration. The familiarization and training period has already passed, now you can perform many of the standard tasks and assignments without paying special attention to them. Experienced motorists who simultaneously perform several actions will tell you about this. A person who has had a busy day at work will tell you this. Despite the overall workload, there was no high density of unique experiences.

After all, the busy worker was pleasantly surprised when time at the office flew by so quickly. With a clear conscience, he goes home by the usual route. And along the way, he will do all his usual things: call relatives, go to the nearest supermarket for bread. In the evening there will be the usual dinner and the usual series. Every day is like another. That is why they replace each other so quickly.

"Erosion" of episodic memory

The second main condition for the rapid passage of time is the "erosion" of episodic memory. And this also applies to each of us. Our memories of routine events fade with time. Can you remember what you did on December 17th? If no significant events took place on that day, you are unlikely to remember the entire chain. But a little more than a month has passed since then! And memory is already trying to make room for more necessary information.

And the further back you begin to look back, the more "forgetfulness" you will demonstrate. One scientific study revealed a striking pattern: people thought that last year flew by faster than last month, and last month faster than yesterday. It doesn't make sense objectively, but our memory corrodes the density of experience within a standard time unit.

findings

All situations that we have described above can be considered anomalous. As a rule, under normal conditions, we perceive 10 minutes as 10 minutes. Perhaps this is due to the fact that we have learned to synchronize our experience with standard time units, and vice versa.

Time will always respect and support that which is strong, but it will turn into dust that which turns out to be fragile.

Time, given by God to each of us, is like a precious fabric on which we embroider, as best we can.

There is nothing a person can manage more than time.

Time is the greatest innovator.

A person who does not know what to do with his time shamelessly takes someone else's.

Time is like a skillful steward, constantly producing new talents to replace those that have disappeared.

Starting your career, do not waste, O young man, precious time!

There was so little time in her watch that she could not keep up with anything.

Alarm clock: home phone time.

Listening to the ticking of the clock, we notice that time is ahead of us.

Time - there is nothing longer in the world, because it is a measure of eternity, and there is nothing shorter, because it is not enough to fulfill our desires; there is nothing slower for the one who waits, nothing faster for the one who enjoys; it reaches infinity in the great and infinitely divides in the small; people neglect it, and having lost it, they regret it; everything happens in time; it destroys the unworthy in the memory of posterity.

Cold witticisms, flat ambiguity, jokes, jokes and false laughter, taken for fun, make up the brilliance of society. Thus, the senseless and vulgar crowd takes advantage of the time that flies away.

Thanks to love, time passes unnoticed, and thanks to time, love passes unnoticed.

Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills its students.

After all, all the same, in that world you will appear poor.

Quotes and Aphorisms 21.05.2018

Dear readers, today let's talk with you about such an elusive and incomprehensible thing as time. It cannot be touched, it is intangible, however, sometimes we just physically feel how it leaves. Everything in this world has its price. And only time is priceless. It is impossible to stop him; unfortunately, you cannot even slow him down. And you can use your time in different ways. But it is entirely within our power to make sure that our time spent is filled with meaning.

Time is such an ordinary and everyday thing in our life that we hardly think about what it is at all. The scientific definition of time is very boring and tricky, so we will try to describe it with the help of accurate and capacious quotes and aphorisms about time.

What is time?

“Time is a moving image of a motionless eternity. Everything that violates the unity of society is no good; all institutions that put a person in conflict with himself are worthless.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

Everything in our life comes in due time

Sometimes a person, carried away by an idea, rushes things, rushes things, and often this, in the end, only harms the cause. In quotes and aphorisms about time, the idea that everything has its own time is very accurately reflected. Sometimes you need to slowly collect your thoughts, and sometimes you need to be able to wait.

“There is a time for everything, and a time for every thing under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot what is planted. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to destroy and a time to build; a time to cry, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to scatter stones, and a time to gather stones; a time to hug, and a time to avoid hugging; time to seek, and time to lose; a time to save, and a time to throw; a time to tear apart, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak; a time to love and a time to hate; a time for war and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes

“Everything in our life comes in due time. You just have to learn to wait!”

Honore de Balzac

“Don't rush to live. Everything has its time - and everything will be in your joy. For many, life is too long because happiness is too short: they missed the joys early, did not enjoy enough, then they would like to return, but they have gone far from them. Through life they rush on the postal ones, adding their haste to the usual run of time; in one day they are ready to swallow what they cannot digest in a lifetime; live joys in debt, devour for years to come, hurry and hurry - and squander everything. Even in knowledge it is necessary to know the measure, not to gain knowledge that is not worth knowing. We have been given more days than happy hours. Enjoy slowly, but act without delay. The deeds are over - good; joys are over - it's bad.

Baltasar Gracian y Morales

"Choosing time means saving time, and what is done out of time is done in vain."

About time with deep meaning

Time is an elusive and strange substance that governs our entire lives. That is why so many facets of this concept are reflected in quotes and aphorisms about time with meaning. Sometimes the meaning of these statements is not on the surface, which will make us think a lot.

About time and love...

Time and love have a strange and paradoxical relationship. On the one hand, when a person is in love, his time next to his loved one flies by completely unnoticed. On the other hand, it is no secret that over time, the feeling of acute love is reborn into a mature and calm relationship. Everyone knows the expression that time is the killer of love. It is this dual relationship that is spoken of in quotes and aphorisms about time and love.

About time and life

Despite the fact that time is an intangible concept, it is the most valuable resource at the disposal of mankind. How a person spends his time largely determines what his life will be like. In quotes and aphorisms about time and life, it is very wisely said about this.

“Time plays an important role in a person’s life, during a person’s life he plays different roles and you need to use it wisely.”

Does time heal...

There are many ambiguities in statements about time. One of them is the age-old debate about whether or not time heals our wounds. Still, I am close to the idea that time itself is not able to heal any of our injuries until we ourselves let them go. And then our brain will move bad memories to the farthest shelf of memory, and over time we will stumble upon them less and less. This is very accurately and aptly stated in quotes that time does not heal.

“Time doesn’t heal. It does not mend wounds, it simply closes them on top with a gauze bandage of new impressions, new sensations, life experience... And sometimes, clinging to something, this bandage flies off, and fresh air enters the wound, giving it new pain... and new life... Time is a bad doctor... It makes you forget about the pain of old wounds, inflicting more and more... And so we crawl through life, like its wounded soldiers... And every year the number of poorly applied bandages grows in my soul... "

Erich Maria Remarque

"Time does not heal! Time will judge, time will show: who is the enemy, where are the friends ... Only time will be impassive and sincere ”

"Time does not heal. We just get used to this pain, learn to live with it, and it becomes part of us.”

"Time does not heal, time fills the memory with other events."

“Time still does not heal. Perhaps it treats us the way it treats sick children - it tries to distract, slips new toys ... And we push them away, demand an old worn out teddy bear, turn to the wall and sniff offendedly ... "

"Time is the doctor of all inevitable evils."

“Where the mind is powerless, time often helps.”

Seneca Lucius Anei

How fast time passes...

In different periods of our lives, time moves differently. The waiting time for a holiday is always longer than the holiday itself. What can we say about the main indicator of human time - age. Therefore, it is so important to be able to appreciate every moment and hour of our life. Quotes and aphorisms about how quickly and inexorably time flies, so accurately hit the target and sink into the soul.

"A child's hour is longer than an old man's day."

Arthur Schopenhauer

“Time passes, that’s the trouble. The past grows and the future shrinks. There are less and less chances to do something - and it’s all the more offensive for what I didn’t have time to do.”

Haruki Murakami

“Use every moment so that later you do not repent and do not regret that you missed your youth.”

Paulo Coelho

“In childhood, it seems that life just weaves, crawls. Grow up faster! In my youth - it seems to be going well and it seems that it will be like this forever - it would be better to get stuck here longer, but better forever. Others can only grow old, but I never! In middle age, sometimes you forget to follow her speed - not before, once or laziness. It's slow and good. And now the time comes when you realize that life did not crawl, did not walk and did not stand, but flew, and always.”

Galina Bobyleva

“Youth flies fast: catch the passing time. The past day is always better than the present day.

"Keep time! Guard it any hour, any minute. Without supervision, it will slip away like a lizard. Illuminate every moment with an honest, worthy accomplishment! Give it weight, meaning, light."

Albert Camus

Great people about time

Of course, famous scientists, philosophers, writers, orators, and politicians could not ignore such a subtle and elusive matter as time. Some compared time with material goods, others believed that it was priceless, the great Einstein went the furthest and completely turned all human knowledge about time upside down. In quotes and aphorisms of great people about time, all their wisdom and vast life experience are combined.

Beautiful words about time

Yes, unfortunately, time is inexorable. You can't stop him, you can't ask him to slow down. And sooner or later there comes a moment when a person himself realizes the value of time. The main thing is that it should be on time. After all, it is entirely in our power to fill our existence with meaning and not waste a single moment in vain.
