Come Monday, you'll remember a novelty-packed weekend as feeling like more time. But in the present, you'll feel like it's going by too fast -- time really does fly when you're having fun, and it really does seem to crawl when you're bored.
The reason, as you may have suspected, is that you're not paying attention to the passage of time when you're enjoying yourself; when you have nothing to distract you, on the other hand, you log every tick of the clock.
To better understand how this works, Eagleman says, think of the last really long flight you took: When you're actually in the air, "it seems to take forever to get to your destination. You can't believe that only two hours have passed. There's nothing novel about the experience, so time kind of disappears there. To get better at managing your time, borrow a training strategy from elite athletes.

Please tell me why weekends and vacations go by so quickly but yet the work week goes by so slowly? Does anyone agree with this? I hardly even know that I had weekend sometimes or a vacation. Seems like they are over before I know it. Oh yes, I definitely have heard of that phrase. Sometimes I am at work and will be doing some clock watching. When we are having fun we do not pay attention to time as much. I went out of the country for a week.. I made sure i had a full 7 days there and gave and extra day to travel there and an extra day to travel back..
I had so much fun there, it was like it went by in a flash So i know how you feel. My parents went away on vacation for two weeks and they came back and said it sure went by quickly. Having cared for kids and animals and done a few chores before leaving the house, I felt like I never had a moment to myself. So, I took back my control. I decided to put a little vacation in each and every day and many years later I still do it.
There's too much research to deny the fact that our brains need frequent breaks, yet entrepreneurs are notorious for pushing themselves to brain fatigue. Here's the thing: taking frequent breaks will make you more productive , creative, and focused. You will get more done in less time and with less stress when you put a little vacation in each day.
Why do I refer to it as a vacation? For entrepreneurs, freedom is important and there's nothing like returning to your vacation mentality to help you exercise your freedom. When we say, "I need a break," it has a different feeling to it than "I'm going on a mini-vacation. If you tell your brain that you're in vacation mode it has permission to relax and leave behind thoughts of work. Yes, it's semantics, but don't knock it.
Studies show that words can actually change your brain. Karen W. That would be really cool! My Daughter works those shifts now and really loves them. My son has worked them and Bob ha even worked them the last two months on a job he has been doing.
I have the solution it's simple I am sure this would work! Men are the same as women, just inside out! Well that sounds like a great idea!
