⚠️The midpoint of life is actually 18 years old!⚠️


Why does childhood time feel very slow⏲️, while as we grow older, time seems to pass faster?
1⃣: To a 10-year-old child, 1 year is 10% of their entire life; but to someone in their twenties, 1 year only accounts for 5%;
2⃣: During childhood, the brain is in a "building" phase, similar to driving a "manual" transmission; but as adults, the brain switches to "automatic" to save computing power.
3⃣: The "slowness" of children is because they lack control over their lives and can only passively wait.
Adults, on the other hand, are used to using the most efficient tools to smooth out all resistance; when you are always in "active pushing," time becomes a consumable.
---------------------------------------------
So how can we make time⏲️ slow down?
1⃣: ⚠️ "Breaking free from control": When you're in a taxi, listening to the driver brag, time undoubtedly feels very long.....
Occasionally do something purely physical, inefficient, or even completely out of control,
Just to experience that real friction.
2⃣: True control isn't about making life fit together perfectly like gears with no friction;
but about still being able to see the shine of each piece of metal when the gears leap and spin.
In this era of always chasing double speed and efficiency, occasionally unplug the internet, and let yourself "degrade" back to that child who is forced to feel the passage of time⏲️!
