When we become aware of pas­sing time

Did you try yesterday’s expe­riment https://coachdanny.ca/2019/08/28/solomotivation-wednesdaymotivation-22/? What did you dis­co­ver? It’s inter­es­ting, no? To give an example, divi­ding your hours into 4 gives you blocks of 15 minutes. You have the­re­fore mul­ti­plied your time slots by 4. It may sound ridi­cu­lous because the total remains the same, but let’s have a look at the rea­so­ning behind it. Humans like to be able to see into the future. Not being able to pre­dict the future creates an uncom­for­table sense of stress which most people find dif­fi­cult to live with. Humans also have a maxi­mum ave­rage capa­ci­ty to manage seve­ral things at the same time, for a par­ti­cu­lar com­mon pur­pose. Take orga­ni­sing school sche­dules, which includes stu­dents, tea­chers, the pre­mises, mate­rials, and many other factors.

Time mana­ge­ment has a cer­tain com­plexi­ty, and humans pre­fer sim­pli­ci­ty, which inevi­ta­bly conserves our ener­gy. Com­part­men­ta­li­sing to make life easier is gene­ral­ly a win­ning stra­te­gy. This reduces the like­li­hood of having to over­lap tasks and the neces­si­ty to men­tal­ly manage them. So, if seg­men­ta­tion is good in a pan­try, why not apply this to time? This is exact­ly what blocks of time mana­ge­ment do.
