Do you notice that when you are getting older time flies only faster?

One hour when you are 10 years old and one hour when you are 30 are two different hours. The sense of time is just different.

When you are 10 you want things t go faster.

When you are 30 you need to learn how to slow down.

Have you ever seen people drinking a can of Cola like it is the last Cola in their life? Yes, with this “Ahhhh” after a sip. These people mastered the art of slowing down.

Many things in life are counterintuitive. Need to achieve more in your day? Have more space and breaks in your schedule.

Breaks are the real magic. No idea how it works but after a short walk, I’m able to figure out the bug in the code in one minute. Even though before I spent 2 hours cracking my head on the problem.

It works for everything in life. Give yourself more space, more free time, enjoy simple things.

In the end, that’s all we really need.
