Redefine your relationship with time from "summary" of The Code of the Extraordinary Mind by Vishen Lakhiani
When we think about time, we often see it as something finite, something we never have enough of. We rush through our days, trying to cram in as much as possible, always feeling like we're running out of time. But what if we could change our relationship with time? What if we could see time as something flexible, something we can bend and shape to suit our needs?The truth is, time is a man-made construct. It's not something that exists outside of us, ticking away relentlessly. We created the concept of time to help us make sense of the world around us, to organize our lives and our societies. But what if we could break free from the constraints of time, and see it for what it really is - a tool, rather than a master?
When we redefine our relationship with time, we open up a world of possibilities. We no longer see time as an enemy, something to be feared and fought against. Instead, we see it as a resource, something to be managed and utilized to our advantage. We can learn to slow down, to savor the moments, to be fully present in the here and now.
By redefining our relationship with time, we can break free from the tyranny of the clock. We can stop living in a constant state of hurry and worry, always feeling like we're behind schedule. Instead, we can learn to trust in the ebb and flow of time, to surrender to its rhythms and embrace its mysteries.
When we see time as a friend rather than a foe, we can start to live more consciously and intentionally. We can prioritize what truly matters to us, and let go of the rest. We can create space for creativity, for connection, for joy. And in doing so, we can truly live an extraordinary life.
