Jawaban:

We Don’t Have the Same Amount Time in a Day

We all have the same 24 hours in a day.

You’ve heard this phrase a thousand times in your lifetime. It has become a mantra to motivate people to make good use of clock time. One of the few absolute truths in which we believe.

But is it true?

Have you ever asked yourself that?

In this first issue of TheShift, I aim to demonstrate why we don’t have the same amount of time in our days. Then, share a holistic approach to organize life around time, for a more productive and fulfilling life.

But, what is the definition of time?

The Oxford Languages defines time :

First, as the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole.

Second, as a point of time as measured in hours and minutes past midnight or noon.

You’ll agree with me. Whenever we say “we all have the same amount of time in a day”, we are referring to the second part of the above definition. Let’s shift gear a bit and consider part one. Time is the indefinite progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future.

Each of our past, present, and future events affect the progress of existence. Hence, our sense of time affects us more than time on the clock. A point of view that’s also shared by philosopher Immanuel Kant.
