A lot of people are currently experiencing a form of cognitive dissonance with time. Because of lockdown, stay-at-home, and various other quarantine measures, the days all tend to blend together.

We are creatures of habit. For most adults in the United States, at least, their days look something like this:

· Monday-Friday is about structure: Wake-up, morning routine, go to work, go home, evening routine.

· Saturday and Sunday are “off” days. Less structured, activities ranging from fun to chores with wake and sleep times generally less specific.

Through this pattern of behavior, you develop habit. During the working week you likely wake-up and go to sleep during a defined window of time. Work happens.

Many people, as a part of this, live in their pattern.

Now the pattern has been interrupted. Even those who are still working as they were before the pandemic are feeling this. Part of that is because the collective consciousness of society has shifted with the times.

The collective consciousness is the reality we accept and agree upon. Remember…
