Time faster passes as age you
It really does
No sir. There's not enough hours in a day, days is a week, weeks in a month, or months in a year when we live in the rat race cycle.
That's so true
I think it has to do with the brain slowing down. If that's true, I wonder if those with higher IQ live subjectively longer lives?
I'm old, but gold.
AND IT ONLY GOES ONE DIRECTION
Perception does. Think of time in percentages of your life. An hour used to be a much higher fraction of your life than it is now. The more plentiful something is the less you value it.
Time inflation.
Time flies when you’re not paying attention.
Indeed
Your age is how fast you're going.
Do you know why?
Yep. Each year becomes a smaller and smaller fraction of the whole. My grandmother who lived to 89 used to tell us time stood still for her , it went so fast..
Yes I completely agree. Childhood is the first 2/3s of your life no matter how long you live.
I read once that the rate at which we perceive time is the square root of our age

But then it slows down again making it a wash
I've read that time passes faster the less diverse your daily life is, the more expected and without surprise or without new learning your life becomes.
As a child time passes slowly for that reason because you are discovering the world every day.
So the key seems to find a way of never falling into some kinds of routine to have a "longer"life
I'm noticing it too in recent years! Are we getting older? 😰🤔
