Episode 3771:


Colin Wright explores how our perception of time shifts depending on attention, novelty, and emotional state, and how that subjectivity can work either against us or for us. By becoming more deliberate about how we structure our days, we can slow down experiences, extend meaningful moments, and cultivate a deeper sense of presence in everyday life.

Quotes to ponder:


"Time can feel like it’s racing past, like it’s dragging, or like it’s standing still, depending on how we’re experiencing it."


"We have some influence over how quickly or slowly time seems to pass, based on what we do and how we engage with what we’re doing."


"When we’re present, novel experiences seem to stretch, and we walk away feeling as if we’ve lived more fully."
