1) You are here and there at the same time.
Consider Time a line already engraved the second you are born.
Linear but not progressive.
Old, young; Born, dead; Here, there all the same line.

5) Use lower time units to measure progress.
Hours instead of months, years, etc.
Lower time units add agility and speed in progress.

It is hard to waste an hour focused on deliberate progress.

The greater the vision, the more time it will take.
The journey towards freedom is long and abiding. Run towards it instead of walking.
