Does Time Usually Go Fast Or Slow For You?

Share your experience.. Does it go slow for you because you are bored a lot of the time? Does it go fast because you are usually busy?

Comment with whether you perceive time as fast or slow and your opinion of why that is.

The reason why this is a good post to answer is because through others experience you can get better grasp of how people perceive time and maybe even learn to control your perspective of it by observing what causes others to perceive it the way they do.

@TheWhippersnapper I remember everything

TheWhippersnapper

@SW-User That's strange from what I've read. Do you remember because of routine or because you paid attention?

SW-User

@TheWhippersnapper why wouldn't I remember in not absent minded or anything.

TheWhippersnapper

@SW-User It's strange that you'd remember everything considering time goes fast for you because according to studies people's perception of time is faster when they aren't paying attention or are on autopilot so remembering everything would also be unusual in that case.

@TheWhippersnapper I've alwys seem to have good memory... Like people get surprised I remember lots of things they don't.

@SW-User what was my first reply to you?

SW-User

@TheWhippersnapper you asked me if I remembered details, like if I payed attention

TheWhippersnapper

@SW-User Okay so would you say that you do pay attention but you're not getting much done because you are focusing on the wrong things? And do you focus on one thing at a time or do multiple subjects occupy your mind at any one time?

SW-User

@TheWhippersnapper definitely it's a problem of focusing on what I shouldn't but it's not always like that.
I try to stay organized most days to avoid that and focus my direction on what is important.
Overthinking is the problem.

Maybe that time wasted will be important for me in the future Idk.
