“This model of the quality of time feels much closer to the truth than...”
At the ellipses is when I realized I don’t have a good model of how I model the quality of time.
A lot of my personal unhappiness comes from when I thought reality was supposed to be some way other than what it turned out to be (classic example, “XYZ happened, I’m supposed to be happy now, ARGGG what gives?!”). Thinking of the quality of time more logarithmically seems like it would produce less feelings of, “Things should feel differently from how they feel :(”.
Well said. Time is maybe the most fundamental thing we’ve got to manage and navigate to have the lives we want, and thus I find it strange how little thinking people give the topic… the scale described here obviously isn’t perfect, but hopefully is useful as a jumping-off point to analyzing time usage a bit for how well it’s being spent.
