Remember the article "As 30 days changed my life without social networks"Steven Crown @stevencorona, co-founder-popular service TwitPic? He continues his quest and now refuses to time. Time - something obvious, that is given to us by our culture. But we have something you do not like the crowd and conduct an audit of all that is given as a given - corporate life, religion, Work tools, the work itself... Now is the time to time. Do we need it?

Time. Once we have it is detailed in the minutes, hours and days, it becomes so insignificant that it seems not at all. Time - as a reality to which we subscribe. There is only because we have agreed to accept it. On the other hand, the time moves inexorably forward. Infinitely. Inevitably, if we consider it divided for years, decades and centuries.
Interestingly, the smallest unit of time are simultaneously the most stressful for us. I am tired of this.
I unsubscribed from the clock
I threw his watch into the trash. Disabled or stuck to the clock on all devices in your home. It seems that today there is a clock on the whole, that only comes up with people - microwave, oven, VCR. What is the clock on the screen of my PC? I removed. On the iPhone (no regular way to clean the clock) I changed the time zone to an arbitrary clock and stop showing adequate time.
The result was not long in coming. The first days were unusual. I've been working on his laptop all day, absorbed in his work on the product. I had no idea what time - 11:00 or 19:00. Yes, and I was spit on it and it was awesome! I took the liberty to withdraw completely to the project so that no clock I did not distract.
I learned to understand the solar time - I look now at the window and realize that it is time to stop work today. I checked myself, and I'm fairly accurate, even with the change of seasons.
3 months
So I got the freedom that come to appreciate after three months more. I reduce stress. I do not worry about that for a long time engaged in some occupation, and I do not think, how long must do something.
I'm no longer chained to the clock. I measure my life palpitations and years, the only meaningful anything for me units.
