The problem at its heart...

Time is linear, but our perception of it is non-linear. And since we accept perception as reality, our distorted sense of time puts us in a distorted reality. 

No wonder we have trouble consistently progressing over time. 

We don’t rate or value (or even respect) each moment equally. 

We have a fixed number of minutes in life, and each minute holds the same potential or opportunity. Yet we don’t perceive it that way. 

And as a result, we sabotage ourselves.
