The concept of stretching time
One integral component of the universe is time. the studies to define time have occurred innumerable times and yet we are not able to find the secret of this magic. If we did, as a life form craves infinite time to spend on the earth, we should have found a solution to play the time or stop the time.
ever imagined what if the time is stopped(no-no, not just the wall clock behind you) and the universe functions? It's gonna be like every organ in the human body works and the bloodstream stands still.
it's easy to throw a number of philosophical questions and just laugh at the misery. We need practicality.
two years back I was watching the orientation session of a UPSC Civil services examination topper. He said, ‘ I was watching the finals of UEFA champions league at midnight just 3/4 days before the prelims because I was so sure of the guilt of not watching my favorite team, Real Madrid might have ruined my exams’. Hows that's fine? for a traditional Indian student, this is unacceptable. we are so keen on time and will be devoid of all of the kind of ‘ distractions’ during the ‘most significant’ exam in their life?
Life is beyond material things. But life is about material things too. If I couldn't watch my favorite team play or miss dinner with family, the other day might be not good. Traditional concepts of ‘ultra focus’ and ‘sharpened brain’ (oh you f*cking Horlicks) are foolishness. those arises due to the lack of self-confidence and belief.
how? in my experience I always did my best work, whether it's an assignment for the firm I work or an examination or at least a personal business, I always finished it last minutes. ‘I used to do’ is the better phrase.
Time is a huge bag full of worthy universal gift, each day we are waking up with that gift in our hands. here I won't compare the scenario of a businessman who looks after his business, family, and social commitments in a day and you won't even have time to make your bed. In contrast to that, the basic nature of human beings is lazy. But being lazy and fulfilling duties are easy if you practice it. I used to do my job in a week, gradually I reduced that for 5 days, then 3 days now one and a half days. I complete my weekly assignments in just 36 hours and indulge in whatever I love, other than my job.
the simple mantra is , if you wake up and try to do all the remaining works in your kitty, you will definitely gonna see the magic of expansion of time. we feel like, I might have blessed with one more hour in life. is it really possible?
My routine change of writing down the tasks, whether it's cleaning the desk or writing an essay, made my ‘time to expand’. we actually do make big fat ‘to-do’ lists in our heads and make them explode. transferring the ideas into a piece of paper or a task manager on your computer is far more efficient than these ‘mental lists’. when I started down actually planning the day on a whiteboard or a sticky note my efficiency increased.
the major reason that all of us plan our day in our brain is, we blindly believe the human brain. Yes, it's true that the human brain is far better than every supercomputer out there, but decluttering of the important organ will enhance the efficiency in uncountable folds.
So to summarize, Plan tomorrow on the previous night, write it down, wake up and read the list, go on with confidence, and see the new version of you.
if things didn't go as you have planned, Just believe tomorrow is going to be mine.
Thank you for reading and Have a great day!
