Time Tenses: Past, Present and Future

The Time Academy Podcast with Tom O'Leary is a time management podcast that asks questions of our relationship with time.

Welcome to Episode 10 - Time Tenses: Past, Present and Future

The Episode at a Glance

* How much of your time do you feel you spend in the present?

* What hold does the past have over you?

* In fact, what hold does the future have over you?

* Does one of the three tenses have more sway?

* A famous Harvard study back in 2010 found that in fact around 47% of our waking hours are spent in the non-present.

* It is as if we time travel in our minds, meaning our experience of time isn’t always as linear as we imagine.

* "We can be caught up as much or more by unlived memories from the future as by lived memories from the past" - Tom O'Leary

About Tom O'Leary

Tom's focus is on building bridges to regenerative futures.

His primary offering – through a process he calls Ecological Coaching – is about supporting leaders as they transition their organisations.

It involves expanding mindsets, enhancing skillsets and evolving organisational structures all in service of life.

In working with clients, Tom realised that a key enabler of any transition is reimagining our relationship with time.

Busyness limits our ability to imagine what might be.

And unless we create space to imagine what might be, we will certainly never build it!

If any of this resonates, please reach out to Tom at [email protected] or learn about his vision for possible regenerative futures.
