Literally this is what I was thinking too. When you're young you explore new things about life and yourself frequently. The difference of your life (or your perception of your life) at age 10 and age 15 is very different. However this is not the same for the ages of 60 and 80. You're pretty much set by 60, you know what you enjoy, what you hate. Thus, you live accordingly. Of course you can still do new things learn things but the chances are it's gonna be less. So, maybe to avoid this "illusion" if we don't live a monotonous life and do new things frequently we can slow our sense of time at the older ages.

There is this album called "Days" by Real Estate. And for me it just perfectly captures this complex feeling. It has this easy summery vibe to it, yet at the same time this deeper sense of nostalgia too. It is profound yet simple at the same time. Its just very beautiful to me. When I listen to It, it brings me back there, to this feeling I had when I was teen, riding my bike around during warm summer nights and trying to find beer hanging out with friends. Simple things. Maybe its because I used to listen to that album at the time too, so now the music just brings me back to my best memories. But even today I find some peace listening to it simply driving around windows down. Makes me relive this feeling that I had back then. Something that is so hard to put into words. Anyway I though maybe it would make you feel the same way.

I guess the most incredible thing about this video is it's comments session. The video gets people of multiple ages and in multiple points in time and in multiple places in the world to share their perception of time and life experiences, and this is so enriching. I mean, it is incredible to read a 14 year old person talking about the shift he had from when he was 9, which was 5 years ago, and then reading a 63 year old talking about how the last decade passed so fast. I mean, everything one saw in it's entire life happened in what it feels like yesterday to the other. And probably none of these people are now, while you're reading this, the age they were when they said those things. As of now, I'm 30, but I don't feel like it is fair. I mean, how could I be 30 years old today if it feels like it was last year that I was 23, when this video came out 7 years ago?

In terms of vacation (let's say 2 weeks) I always felt that time passes much slower than 2 weeks of daily work, I think it's more connected to the new information going into the brain, a movie appears to end faster when you already watched it rather than the first time watching it. Life's the same, when you are kid, every experience is new, when you get older, you do everyday dozens of things you've already done a lot of times, so the brain erases repetitive memories. You won't remember exactly what you've done a random day back in 2016, but you'll remember with detail the day that you graduated just because it's a unique experience to your brain.

I find it interesting that if you are running late for something, going to the movies for example, time seems to speed up. but if you are early for something, and decide to kill time by going for a walk around the block, for example, time seems to slow down, and just a few minutes will have passed. This happens at any age.

Yep, that's how I would explain it too. Well to be fair the video mentions it but in a different way. But i think another missing factor is having way more time to kill when you're younger. It's mostly school, including any extra curricular activities, and everything else outside of that. No stresses, no worries for the most part and a lot less repetitive routine work. As an adult, we get bombarded with mostly mundane tasks literally every single day and a set routine when it comes to work. The days mesh and even get lost. This results in thinking time is flying when we're just merely to busy to even notice it.

When you were 2 years old, 1 year was half of your life and as such it feels like a long time. When you're 80 years old, 1 year is a small fraction of the total amount of time you've experienced. The more days, weeks, months, and years you go through. the faster they will feel. I had a calculus professor in college explain this phenomena to us as he in essence said we experience time logarithmically.

I'm 28. 8 years ago, when I was 20, feels like it was literally JUST yesterday. But then if you asked 20 year old me to remember 8 years before that, when I was 12, I would definitely say that that felt like an eternity. It's so odd how fast time goes as you get older.

I've been pondering this lately, and this vid makes so much sense. I read some of my teen journals, from a time when everything seemed like an event - life was exciting with newness.

Have you ever driven to a place you've never driven to before? Your first time going there it seems to take a while. But then you go back a second time and the drive seems much shorter, even though it's the same distance. Maybe this is a similar thing that happens as we age. We become more familiar with the flow of the day, seasons, year, and moving through time in general. When we're younger we're still learning so much about everything around us and in life. There are less unknowns as we become older. Much like when you become familiar with a traveling route.

Don’t assume that’s a shared experience, cause I don’t think it is. I feel like the same is for this video. I don’t agree time is moving quicker as I age and I’ve asked some of my elders and they disagreed as well. It’s more so about stimulation of the mind.

I discussed this with my old singing Italian barber (yes really! He is retired now though) a while ago. He asked me "when was the last time you did something new? Time seems to pass faster because you are in a routine and are doing the same things day in, day out. When you were younger, time was slower because you felt, saw, discovered, and did things for the first time. Keep exploring the world and trying new things in your life, and time will keep passing slower." And I have to say, yes, he was so very right with that!

Even though 2020 sucks, it honestly felt like March was only yesterday.

Felt it when I turned 19. From early childhood to 18, everything seemed slower. I was monitoring the clock when I was in class taking a course at 19 and was shocked how fast time flew. I mentioned it to my teacher and her response still sticks with me "so you are experiencing it now". Now at 43, everything is quickened. I remember when we greeted the New Year.

As a musician though i have some general perception on time. so in most cases while i know what time it is or how much time has passed, it rarely aligns with how much time i feel has passed. that only applies to situations i am actively in. if it's more than a few days ago it could as well be years.

It might not be easy to recognize for someone who is first time depressed or has only been short time depressed, that depression gives that kind of pleasure. And it totally makes sense, that's why it's so destructive cycle.

Really interesting, thanks. The time just flew by!

Very enriching. I can definetely conclude that key events alter your time perception. When a child is born, a divorce and the death of a parent all can cause "jumps" in time perception. That together with the first explanation (fraction therory) kind of causes the whole effect. You mentioned that a six year old would have lived half of it's life by the age of 6 according to the "fraction theory". I think it might be exactly that if we talk about discovering life. A kid will have the most amount of new experiences compared to a 60 year old person. And that might be 50% of it's total life experience, I believe. All "routines" are just not experienced as conscious as new events. Time for Science!

read this once & it stuck with me since "Man alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out."

I think the main reason this happens is the focus thing. When we are a kid, everything is new as you said - and therefore we have a tremendous amount of information getting in our brain each day making them feel longer. When you grow up and start getting used to life, your attention is way more selective. Nobody tends to wake up and analyse in details every detail in the room for example, or in the street. We know the wall is a wall so our attention is not directed onto that. Same goes for actions and basically everything - we automatise things, driving - routines - dressing - so much things we don't need to focus on anymore. This is then amplified by other things - we spend more time in our thoughts, because we now have concerns, complex thoughts, memories etc. And time spent in one's own mind makes the time feel very very fast, it's an abstraction from the present moment. Same goes for the flow thing you described, focusing a lot and giving it all for something means making abstraction of everything else around to purely focus on one thing, which means abstraction from the present moment again, and times feels faster. And with the high tech and connected society, it's even increased since time spent in front lf screens create this effect. Therefore, as adults, we are constantly in some sort of abstraction, be it automatisms, focus or thoughts, and that's why time feels quicker.

German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer in his work "Aphorismen zur Lebensweisheit" in the chapter "Vom Unterschiede der Lebensalter " dedicated a little bit to this topic. This chapter impressed me a lot and proved to be very instructive. Schopenhauer also wrote even then that it would be fundamentally due to repetition. Here are a few excerpts from the chapter: "Namely, life, in all its significance, is still so new, fresh, and without dulling of its impressions by repetition, before us, that we, in the midst of our childish bustle, are always occupied in silence and without any clear intention, to grasp from the individual scenes and processes the essence of life itself, the basic types of its figures and representations. We see, as Spinoza puts it, all things and persons in the light of eternity. The younger we are, the more each represents its whole genus. This diminishes more and more, from year to year: and on this rests the so great difference of impression which things make on us in youth and in old age ... As long as we are young, we may be told what we like, we consider life endless and deal with time accordingly. The older we get, the more we economize our time. For in later age, every day spent arouses a sensation akin to that which a delinquent led to the high court has at every step. From the point of view of youth, life is an infinitely long future; from the point of view of old age, it is a very short past; so that at first it appears to us like the things when we put the lens of the opera-goer to our eye, but at last like the eyepiece here. One must have become old, thus have lived long, in order to recognize, how short the life is. - The older one becomes, the smaller all human things appear: life, which in youth stood before us as solid and stable, now shows itself to us as the rapid flight of ephemeral phenomena: the nothingness of the whole emerges. - Time itself has a much slower pace in our youth, therefore the first quarter of our life is not only the happiest, but also the longest, so that it leaves behind many more memories, and everyone, if it mattered, would know more to tell from it than from two of the following ones."

My theory is a bit different. I believe things appear longer when your younger because you are always waiting for a event. Birthdays, school, Christmas and many more events. Waiting seems to extend time in my mind. Therefore as we age we have less things to be excited about and time appears to slip by. Thats my theory.

I graduated in 2016. This is what gets me: I remember in high school thinking man this is going so slow, I have 4 more years until I graduate?! 6 years have passed since 2016! Thats high school and a half all over again, insane! In 2016 graduated, went to university right after, dropped down to community due to bombing my SAT/ACT and having to take beginner courses drove me insane, not having a single course related to my major...Those couple years or so at Uni felt somewhat fast but not like what I feel these days. I was underperforming but still experiencing new things. At community everything was going fine, now this was a bit faster than what high school time was like though. Then boom covid, everything online. Learned almost nothing in class and lost contact with meeting new people. That is when time started blowing by for me personally. I would believe it if it was still 2020... I guess what this means is not actively experiencing new things makes my life more repetitive which makes time speed up. I do not play video games for a fraction as much as I used to but the overall years are somehow faster! Back then even though I spent so much time playing games I was still doing different things, going to friends houses, talking to more people, experiencing the world a bit more. That is all it took to offset 40+ hours of video games a week. Without those things no matter what don't do time is fast.

I heard that the reason time flies when you get older is because you experience fewer new things. Life becomes a routine and most days are not memorable. So when old people try to go back in time to find memories, they feel like the last months didn't even excist. Just like we all feel that the year 2020 doesn't exist in our memories because we didn't experience much memorable during lockdown. That makes 2019 feel like one year ago and time went fast forward.

That is what i have always told to myself and to people around. And that is why I will always try to find new things to experience. I am right now soon to become 21 years old, but I have been a sound technician, builder, cook, an actor, an improv actor, been to 4 different schools (if we do not consider online courses) and right now I am learning IT. I train my brain everyday as much as I can and try to give it as much variety as I can. Also as I have in the past felt a burnout, I know to keep an eye on my free time so that I could also from time to time think of my past and see if I am happy about it.

I like this definition - when you are a kid, you dont have many memories to think about. as you get older, you spend alot of time remembering the past. So we actually time travel into the past. That time you spend remembering takes up time, so when you stop, you missed the present time so it seems like more time passed, thus it went faster. Or something like that.

Many people older than me, like my parents, tell me often that they're feeling time flowing so much faster than when they were young, and started to have such a perception when they were about to reach 50 years old. I'm 48 years old now, I feel that time seems to flow faster than when I was younger, but not so much, I perceive time flowing evenly day after day and still feels like it's quite long. I'm someone who's not worrying too much about tomorrow, which make time to seem going slow, and rarely experience boredom, which make time to seem going fast. I guess there's some kind of balance, and wish it will remain like that. I remember a really strange experience I had and never happened again. When you fall asleep at night and wake up in the morning, you still somehow have some conscience that you have slept many hours. One day, when I was 7 or 8 years old and visiting my grandparents, I went to bed for night, and at a moment I consciously blinked my eyes for about two seconds, and when I've opened them, it was the morning. It really felt like the night lasted two seconds. I was in a very good mood, but I was so puzzled at the same time. I've told about that to my grandmother; she explained me that I should had been so tired, so I felt asleep so fast to see it coming. I'm pretty sure she improvised that explanation, but it makes sense. I've learned many years later that some people experience that every single night; it's like their brains shut down so abruptly when they fall asleep to make that perception to happen, while most of people fall asleep gradually.

I'm 50 and I stopped my minute after 51 seconds. I also don't feel that time is speeding up with age. Although, I believe when I was very young time felt a bit slower simply because I wasn't aware that my life is limited.

I did the same sort of study when I entered a science fair in high school. I held up different colors (the standard yellow, blue, green, orange, and red for a certain period of time and asked people to write down how many seconds they believed had elapsed for each one. Although each was held up for the exact same amount of time, every single person in three groups of 30 assigned blue as the color that the most amount of time passed and orange being held up for the least amount of time.

Thankyou been thinking about this question since I was little

The last part of this video said it all. When we get older, we get stuck in the same routine for years upon years and we don't have any standout memories to think back on since most days are more or less the same. Adding variety and as many new experiences to your memories as possible is the best way to stave off the feeling like time is flying by.

As a Christian, I find that the more I learn about God and the Bible the more exciting each year becomes. He is an infinite God and I am a finite person learning more about Him. So, in a way that kind of makes sense. I like the feeling of time flying by because there is something exciting about it.

In a situation when I do nothing comparing to my youth and now feels like doing nothing and waiting smth became more faster than when I was a kid. But you always can speed it up doing something else to ignore the time passing you know

Your channels always discover interests and and concepts

I found that when I started studying a foreign language in my spare time, TIME slowed down. I felt like I experienced time like I did as a kid, because I had to learn everything all over again. I think that constantly learning new things could make time slower and not be unpleasant.

@@egg-iu3fe I'm guessing you're relatively young, and not experiencing life racing by as you hurtle ever nearer your grave ..... it's not a pleasant experience.

My doctorial thesis went over this, and my end theory was a bit different. When you're a kid, you have a lot more "free time", so you value time less than you do when you're an adult. As an adult you understand better that you have a lot less free time. You have to work, there are obligational chunks of time used, say for house chores or maybe getting your car serviced, even just going to work. When you are younger you don't have to worry so much about not having time to do something you want to do, because you have a lot less obligational time. But as you grow older you get more obligational time in your day, and it seems to grow continually as you age. First, it's due to maturing and the need to satisfy your responsibilities, and then as you reach retirement it's the knowledge that you don't have a lot of time left. As you start to face death, either by losing those close to you or just reaching the point where you have so much you want to do and have never done, your conscious mind starts to understand that every minute you have left is numbered. And you start to feel that you are running out of time. Once you begin to understand that everyone does die, you now see time in a bottle, it's limited. It's not just a tap you can turn on like you did as a kid, you know eventually the bottle will run out. You start to appreciate time more, you value it far as you age, this leads to time seemingly being so short. That aging makes you feel like you've missed a lot of time in your life over the mundane, because of all the obligatory time you have had. Vacations are faster, days off blow by, because despite the fact that you have free time now, compared to the obligatory time you have, it's a much smaller amount. An older person who has memory issues, enjoys a slower passing of time. They don't remember the obligatory time they have had, they don't remember the time they have "wasted" in their lives, so to them, it's much like a small child again. This helps to prove that the passage of time is a subconscious view of the time used in your life. When your brain can't or won't process in the moment the amount of time you have used, compared to the knowledge that it will run out, time slows down for you. But once you realize more and more that you just don't have enough time in your day, you're perception of time seems to speed up.

So it's all stress related and we killing ourself by obligations of repeating the thought process which limit the space for other thoughts to be in the moment. Is it why people with stress are feeling less when walking the woods as their brain focus on a single task. Time fly by as the brain is overstimulated by all the faces and tasks they have to do. Stimulation is happening when you see a pretty person. Devices who stimulate make time fly faster. We're programmed to feel a stimulation of doing a task over again. Our breeding technique is based on repetition.

I’ve been driving manual transmission cars since 1977. I used to be aware of every single shift. Then one day, probably in the early 1990’s, I was at a red light. It turned green, I was driving down the road and I noticed I was in my top (5th) gear. I did not at all remember doing any of the shifting from 1st, to 2nd, etc. It was as if I started out in 5th gear and never touched the shifter. I think all of our daily life, by the time we are older, is mostly repetitious. Doing repetitious things is not noticed as much by the brain and in effect time seems to go faster.

My teenage years felt like an entire era. Now (I'm in my 50s), ten years ago feels like a blink of an eye.

Im currently 21 so here's my experience: Majority of my days are routine work that are pre set and kind of chill not any stress or pressure. But there are somedays where my routine changes and have to deal with various things. Its like on these days im super busy. So when i go home after this day i feel like super tired and think it was a damn long day. The point i want to make is that when the brain is constantly busy and involved in various situations time feels slower. Hope u understood what i want to say.

If you live to be 80, you reached temporal middle age at 27. People who seek novelty can stretch their middle age beyond 27. Vacations, learning new languages/instruments, new cultures, new hobbies/arts, etc, these are enriching moments that force the mind to take a deeper impression thus also slowing down the perception of time. Learning new tasks forces the mind to be engaged, the more thoughts/neuron pulses per moment of time, the longer time is stretched.

What do you mean by “temporal middle age”? 26.66 is 1/3 of 80. 2/3 is 53.33. 50% would be 40, which is middle age. Age 20 means you’ve reached 25% of the average lifespan, meaning a quarter of your life on average is over. Scary when you actually think about it…

I always thought it was a comparison thing. When you’re 6 a year seems like such a long time because that’s literally 1/6th of time you’ve experienced, but when you’re 50 another year is just a drop in the ocean, you’ve lived so many days they just kinda blur together making life feel faster.

Thanks for speaking my brain outloud.

I haven’t even started watching but first thing that comes to mind is that when we’re kids up until 21, everything feels like it’s evolving and we’re set on a path for growth and development both physically and mentally. But as we get into our 20s and later, it’s really all up to us individually to keep progressing and I think a lot of us fall short, years pass by, and we feel like we haven’t grown or accomplish much. You periodically stop to reflect and realize “wow, not much has really changed”. That’s how I feel at least
