People who have time management skills let the clock become an intrusive thought so they develop an obsessive compulsion with being aware of the time. (lemmy.world)

Uh, no, not really. If you're feeling any kind of anxiety you're doing it wrong. The only time I've ever had to watch the clock is during really, really boring classes and presentations.

Time management has very little to do with what time it is, counter-intuitively. Just like budgeting doesn't really have much to do with the size of your net worth.

Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
