are you past oriented? or are you future oriented?
this is what Philip Zimbardo addresses in this video with an accompanied animation
here, we begin to realize what time really means and how it affects us. we begin life a certain way but can easily change our perspective of time depending on our cultural surroundings.
he uses the term “hedonistic” a lot in this lecture, but it’s true that it sums up our values as human beings. pleasure > time-consuming work/everything else that we consider boring. technology and it’s power over almost everything we do affects our time and essentially, our future.
