Our relationship with time always seems negative. Instead of cherishing time and seeing it as a positive part of life, we blame "time" for everything that is not going well, and that it does not exist in abundance. We can transform our relationship with time into something pleasant and positive, increasing our temporal well-being, satisfaction, and joy in time.
Thank you Kirsten and Chris! I just ordered the book 😊🙏 All of this makes tremendous sense to me. I manage and am a coach and mindfulness teacher in a root cause medicine clinic but I have never explored the root cause of my relationship to/with time!!!! Brilliant work. I’ve needed this since high school, when I was quoted in my high school yearbook as Most Versatile, saying “If only I had more time, I could do so much more!”
😂😂😂 Ah my 17 year old self was already in the hamster wheel.
Love this interview Kristin, and am so grateful that you keep providing insights and inspiration to help shift the paradigm on our toxic capitalist culture. Thank you!
As a young project manager I was taught to focus on time, cost and quality, but to view time as the most critical dimension because time overruns run up overall project cost. I used critical path analysis to identify risks and pressure my team members to deliver on time. Thats how I got my first job in the US. This approach makes sense in many ways, but it can yield an unhealthy state of mind unless carefully balanced with meaningful rest.
I've always said life is too long, not too short. Some people spend time like money, others can't let it go. The gentleman that inspired our move to the high plains desert of New Mexico is turning 80. He drives 50 miles, one way to buy an avocado. He lives in the moment. He watches Antelope chase each other across his 4 acres and feeds red ants oatmeal and watches them intently as they move it into the Colony.
"I never wanted to, always wanted to stay
I wasted my time until time wasted me"
I absolutely love your STUFF, Kirsten. Jujitsu is both an art and a sport. You're a master at grappling with issues we all face. 👊
That is an interesting discussion about linear time relationships, which dominates alot of industrialized time relationships. However, equatorial time (which is like a spiral and crossing loops) and some forms of eastern time (zen model) do not have the same levels of success evaluation or significantly slower patterns.
Kirsten, I don’t know your situation concerning intimate relationships but if this person- Kyra-is only partially correct about the partner being a narcissist you must tread carefully and extrication is difficult but necessary. Good luck and I am behind you. Lean heavily on your most trusted friends.
very bizzarre---very weird. thanks for commenting or i wouldn've missed it. i canceled her account and refunded her money. a lot of weird stories made up from apparently following my husband on instagram.

What’s that all about ?
I was wondering the same. Had nothing to do with Kirsten's article
