Living in a chronically stressful environment alters your time preference.
Your mind struggles to accept sustained exposure to long-term stress, so it adapts by breaking life into manageable chunks hence the notion ‘one day at a time’.
From experience, this adaptation is growth-inhibiting. A short-term focus gradually erodes long-term vision.
Routine then takes over, and routine reshapes how you experience time. Years begin to pass unnoticed.
Always allocate time to project yourself into the future and assess your direction. If you don’t, the years will pass anyway, the world will change, and you’ll struggle to adapt when it does.
You may find yourself in a world where your skills and views are irrelevant and maligned with actual reality .
