Forces That Can Mould Time

Here’s an interesting comment from Maureen at the previous part of this article,

"Time is something I never have enough of, and something I wish would speed up in terms of my making my dreams come true."

Have you ever felt like the time you have isn’t enough to perform all of the necessary tasks required to take you ‘there’? Do you feel like you need more time?

Well, here’s my response to Maureen,

""Most people, particularly ambitious and goal-oriented individuals, have this challenge of not having enough time. I rarely feel that way, though. My experience has been that I wished I had enough energy, drive, and vision-clarity, to make the most of the time that I have. I believe that I have more than enough time; my personal challenge is to optimize and leverage it for greater output."

I promised then that in this section of the article, I’ll attempt to identify some of the forces that can ‘accelerate’ time.

Once again, let me start by saying that I believe that you can mould time to your advantage; you can actually control your time – that is, how long it takes you, for instance, to achieve your dreams. However, and this is the real make or break issue here, you must first of all cultivate a greater awareness and understanding of the forces that can shape time to your tastes.

Let me present you with some food for thought.

Forces that can mould time

How much time would be required to go from point A to point B? Someone would say, "it depends on the speed and distance," and they would be right within a certain context. In this case, we recognize that time can be subjected to other forces, such as speed. In other words, the faster you are, the smaller the time needed to cover the distance, and the slower you are, the greater the time needed to cover the distance. Time in this case becomes elastic, something that can be increased or decreased by the application of another force – speed. So, speed can mould time to your specifications, such that if I need more time, I’ll simply have to apply more speed.

Or, how much time would be required for water temperature to move from 0 to 100 degrees? Again, someone would say, "it depends on the temperature of the medium in which the water is present," and they too would be right within a certain context. Here, we recognize that time can be subjected to other forces, such as heat.

The list of examples like these could go on and on, each showing various kinds of forces that have the potential to mould time.

You see, if you understand the necessary forces that control time, you can actually mould time to your advantage, you can make time serve your ends and purposes.

So, from your own perspective, as we reflect on the mystery of time, have you recognized other forces that can mould time?
