time
I see time to be directly linked to attention. You can fuse with your surroundings (archaic time), lock into one object (magical time/flow/addiction), orient around events, narrative or cycles (mythical time), or obsess over budgeting hours and minutes (rational time). The idea of escaping rational time and realizing “I am time” is liberating, and
... See morei’ve used the phrase “unstuck from time,” which is about using the imaginal perspective to see past, present, future as one, but it was more like a motivational or aesthetic reset.

The Atom (500 nanoseconds) — the time for light to travel a pen;
The Hertz (4 milliseconds) — a single violin string oscillation for a high C;
The Frame (25 milliseconds) — a single shot at 40 fps;

In Greek Mythology, Chronos (God of hard time) was in charge of the universe and he would eat all his children. Zeus escaped through a river (like Moses). Through mastering the feminine, and through escaping chronos into kairos (soft time), you sparkle, you wield lightning, and your reality is malleable.
... See moreIn Greek mythology, Chronos was “Father Time” and he devoured his own children. One son got away and rose above time to become a God; this was Zeus. He formed an uprising against time and became the king of the pantheon. I think the Gods preferred an alternate type of time called “Kairos” a fleeting moment that was pregnant with opportunity.

Averaged 3.85/meetings per week in Q1. I remember when I used to average 4 meetings a day. There’s likely a correlation between how many meetings you have per week and your likeliness to consider getting off the clocks.
