This document discusses different perspectives on time and how it is experienced. It notes that common sayings refer to time as money, essence, or something that flies or is relative. However, the document argues that the worst substance we abuse is time itself. While technology has blurred lines between work and leisure, constantly spreading focus thinly never allows going deeper. The key issue is lack of focus, not lack of time, and when we slow down, time also slows down. It concludes by asking the reader to check in on where their focus currently lies.
