Welcome to Conversation With Katherine Conceptual Time vs Real Time
I am a lion on the plains of an African grassland. I am happily lounging with my pride and I take a look at my paw and I say OMG it is 8:00 and it is time to eat. I gather my pride and I roar it is time to hunt. Now my pride is not hungry but after all it is time to eat. I check my stomach and I am not hungry but my paw says it is TIME. So off we go a hunting because TIME told us to eat.
Now this is a tongue in cheek statement. Lions don't have time on their paws and hunting is done when they start feeling hungry. Time is not something that is important to the lion. I have identified two types of Time. Conceptual Time and Real Time. Conceptual time is how we humans think about time and our relationship to time. Real Time is fixed, 60 seconds for a minute, 60 minutes to an hour, 24 hours in a day.

Conversation With Katherine-Swamp Land

Welcome to Conversation With Katherine and my podcast Swamp Land
There are so many different types of fear. There is fear of commitment, fear of the unknown, fear of the known, fear of the other, fear of success, fear of failure. The one quality that fear can bring into your life is a form of paralysis that limits your ability to move forward in your life. Fear can keep you in your familiar swamp land whispering how dangerous your life is and you are safe in your swamp land, even if you are miserable. Maybe, before I continue, I should explain what I mean by swamp land. Your swamp land is your dark space. It can be where your critical voice is the dominant voice in your mental space. It can be where whatever fear you have you can't figure out a different way of being. Sometimes we have been in our swamp land so long we call it Life. Your swamp land does not allow you to access joy or happiness. It can tell you the no one is happy or joyful.
