Do you wear a watch?
How dependent are you on artificial means for structuring time, for example watch, clock, etc?
Try going for half a day or even whole day without wearing a watch and deliberately avoiding any form of time check.
Later, reflect on your experience.
What did it feel like?
At first I was very anxious. I felt lost. I also need to make conscious efforts and stop myself from looking for other source of time such as other peopleÂ’s watch, clock on the MRT station, etc. But once you get used to it, personally I feel great. I like the idea of ignoring time, of breaking the chains that were imposed on me by artificial time.
What about you? Care to give it a try?
For those of you who had met me before, you will notice that I donÂ’t have a watch. Although I do carry a hand phone but I donÂ’t bring it out unnecessary (usually keep in my bag) I only check the time when it is absolutely necessary. -

No watch as much as possible. Hate to add unnecessary weight to my body. But I need to keep track of time. My house almost every direction got clock. So, look up can liao.
To experience timelessness. Sit down on a chair, stare at blank wall. I bet you cannot last for more than 30mins. This way, you can really "feel" time. It goes so slowly when you do this. -

wear 2 watches and go out
one on each wrist
or both on one wrist
then go around and approach ppl to ask for the time

i dun wear watch. I only see HP for time when needed.
but sometimes once I get a reference of time I can quite accurately judge how much time has passed. -
