Today, I’m going to talk about time. Specifically I’ll be looking at how people think about time, and how these time perspectives structure our lives. According to social psychologists, there are six ways of thinking about time, which are called personal time zones.
The first two are based on the past. Past positive thinkers spend most of their time in a state of nostalgia, fondly remembering moments such as birthdays, marriages and important achievements in their life. These are the kinds of people who keep family records, books and photo albums.
People living in the past negative time zone are also absorbed by earlier times,
but they focus on all the bad things — regrets, failures, poor decisions. They spend a lot of time thinking about how life could have been.
Then, we have people who live in the present.
Present hedonists are driven by pleasure and immediate sensation.
Their life motto is to have a good time and avoid pain. Present fatalists live in the moment too, but they believe this moment is the product of circumstances entirely beyond their control; it’s their fate.
Whether it’s poverty, religion or society itself,
something stops these people from believing they can play a role in changing their outcomes in life. Life simply ’is’ and that’s that.
Looking at the future time zone, we can see that
people classified as future active are the planners and go-getters. They work rather than play and resist temptation.
Decisions are made based on potential consequences, not on the experience itself. A second future-orientated perspective, future fatalistic, is driven by the certainty of life after death and some kind of a judgement day when they will be assessed on how virtuously they have lived and
what success they have had in their lives.
