About this episode
If "Time" was a manufactured product how much would it cost at Walmart? Would we waste it like so many people waste our time? The idea of respecting other people's time has become an issue of those holding the complaint aren't being fair to someone who might have gotten stuck in traffic or its just another bad day. My grandparents never complained about time. I on the other hand am a time freak. Three hours early is six hours too late. In living this lifestyle I've had to learn how to build a relationship with something that was invented because it must have been very difficult to know where we were in the day when the sun was hidden behind a rain cloud. To be a fly on the wall when it was agreed upon that sixty ticks make a minutes which we need sixty of to create an hour but there are only 24 hours in the day. Why? It's not that I want more time! On this podcast we talk about how our mind bodies and souls probably couldn't handle longer drawn out ticks on the clock. We want information now. Fast food isn't fast anymore. I've lived in the lower corner of the U.S. since 1985 and I swear over the past 35 years southern people are talking faster. What's the rush? What are we doing with the content we digest everyday? I read the other day that the perfect sermon from preachers in 2020 is 28 to 32 minutes. Unless you're watching it on YouTube then we're in and out inside two minutes. The digital age has made life more convenient but what are we doing with our extra time? I did an interview with one of the top dogs of Robert Half about the importance of AI's. He said, "Employees will have more time to do bigger and better productive things." So bad I wanted to ask, "To train their other fingers to move as fast as their thumbs while texting and posting?" Savoring time is a daily discipline. I'm always in search of something that has been labeled boring. I want to step into for one reason. Through boredom time slows down.
