Howcome sometimes,time seems to go slow....

and other times fast.When it is all the same time?
😕

Different people may judge identical lengths of time quite differently. Time can fly, a long period of time can seem to go by very quickly. Likewise, time can seem to drag, as in when one performs a boring task.

The judged speed of time depends on a number of factors. If a person has a very long list of tasks to accomplish on a certain day, the day may feel like it has not enough hours to do everything. Likewise, even a short wait at a bus stop while running late can feel endless. A day filled with fun activities can feel very long due to the number of activities that fill it. A long trip can go by quickly if the traveller' s mind is occupied.

Time appears to go fast when sleeping, or, to put it differently, time seems not to have passed while asleep. Time also appears to pass more quickly as one gets older. For example, a day for a child seems to last longer than a day for an adult. One convincing reason for this is simple. With increasing age, each segment of time is an increasingly smaller percentage of the person' s total experience.

When your mind is somewhere else it goes much faster......Just as in sleeping, your mind is also somewhere else.

You've heard "A watched pot never boils?" It's just your perception of your observable environment.

If you are just sitting and doing something boring, your brain is not getting enough activity to make it happy, we then keep track of time very closely and it seems to go slow. If we are having fun, our brain is filled with activity and we don't keep track of time as much, so time seems to go really fast. Our perception of time is based upon the number of times we check on time. If we do it a lot, it goes slow, if we don't check it, it goes fast. Experiments have been done on people who have been in a cave with no clue of time. and they loose all sense of time. We check for time in more ways than just looking at a clock, we see the light outside, we know the rhythm of the day, we hear the animals outside or other people.

Day dreaming makes days fly by.......so that's why time passes so fast for me.

She's right, you know...

😂

Your even over here????

Its not all the same time, Einstein said that time is not absolute, lightspeed was. First Postulate of Special Relativity(I think).

Why gnomes always always dance over my bed when I´m not looking !
Or was that a dream !?

Just joking, don´t be offended.

I swear to god, early in the morning, when i want to say in bed, i can ellongate time, and each minute is like 5, but as soon as I quite concentration, each minute is like.... 10 seconds.

I would need a good dosage of LSD to have a perception like that, one minute like 10 seconds. But yes... for me times go faster to in the morning.

I think time goes faster when your not aware of time.

I think when you get older time speeds up. When I was a kid summers used to last forever, now it seemed that they are over soon after they begin.

Short and straight to the point.. 😄

I think she meant "seems to go faster"..
