I tend to react differently and Iam more focused on my outside environment. Maybe you can elaborate more with your findings. I find that I’m a different person in the present.

I even find myself living out my past in different ways inside my mind, doing things differently and seeing how it would play out. I also do the same with the future, with some thoughts being about ulterior goals and some others just hypothetical. It’s a very valid point that a lot of us dwell on in psychological time.

But when we start projecting ourselves constantly into the future (or past) and live there in the mind, we become unsatisfied with what is and dismiss the present moment. It becomes a means to the end and we want to be at the end." My own compulsions towards accomplishing ideals has been reason why I get lost in psychological time. When I read what you wrote, I instantly rediscovered the important of concrete, clock-oriented goals. And then, letting the bird go, and if it's meant to be... Thank you.

The psychological wasted time typically stems from what I refer to as "time vampires." Sometimes it is just a matter of eliminating certain things, thoughts and even people from becoming time vampires!

The more conscious I am, the more I am able to stay present and out of psychological time. This means I don't get lost in thoughts. Now this is pretty doable if all goes fine regarding the life-situation. However, if there are typical stress factors arising with demands on mind-activities, i.e. open loops with unfinishes tasks and pressing deadlines - my favorite things in my job. This is what has a good change to get me caught and get me creating psychological time. But we are learning, aren't we? :) Glen, I experience it differently from time to time, it changes with the level of consciousness.

It happened to me that I got so frustrated with the situation that was there in the present, just because I wanted to have the situation of my goal. If the goal is there, the next one comes. Now this is ok. But it is not ok for me to get lost in it and lose the here and now. Yes, this is possible.

I also like the statement of goals and working on them in the present. Aha I catched myself in your news-example with the bad news where there is nothing we can do about it.
