TED Talks -Philip Zimbardo prescribes a healthy take on time

submitted by Deano

Talks

Duration 6 minutes 34 seconds.

From TED:

"Psychologist Philip Zimbardo says happiness and success are rooted in a trait most of us disregard: the way we orient toward the past, present and future. He suggests we calibrate our outlook on time as a first step to improving our lives."

Interesting. Thank you for the sift.

Interesting way of thinking about things its a shame its not gone into more depth, I was always under the impression that this aspect of people was almost entirely subconscious.

he said the magic word "balance",
i never realized that people got stuck in only one way to perceive their lives in such a way.
that explains a LOT....
im going to go check this guys work out a bit more...fascinating.
thanks deano!
