It never got dark in that city. Always shops and lights. People with their phones. The glow of cigarette butts. It was a city that never sleeps, but not New York. Pegasus didn't like his life, but he liked living there. He slept through the days, roamed around at night....

She saw everything. And wrote it down. Not everything but the important things. Pen on paper. Never typed. She didn't trust computers. Not like she thought someone was spying on them. She didn't trust that the things she wrote into a computer would be there for  time to come. Files,...

After the diner Calvin went for a drive. Thought about what  Imogen Howe had told him. A man named Keith has been missing for three days. He lives in California. She's not sure if that's where he was born or lived his whole life though. But he has been up...

On that boardwalk the two spoke for less than half hour's time. To Dave it felt like a long conversation, Not in a bad way. time slowed down. He paid attention. Listened. there were no goals. Just two men exchanging words while the ocean exchanged force against the coastline.

it felt...

The windows were frosted. The cold came out of nowhere. Larry liked frosted glass. Not fog. The two had a similar opacifying effect, but the latter felt unhygenic while the former felt quaint.

Larry thought decades past when people would sit and talk for hours after eating their food. Laughter and...

My life looked too complicated for me to write. Where would I begin? How would I end it. The story I mean, not my life itself.

I suppose everybody sees their life this way. Maybe that's why few people write  autobiographies .

I knew I could never write one myself if I...

It wasn't Godot's number. It was a name. Someone from his old office he wasn't close enough to in order to memorize the number like he had with Godot. One thing he didn't do was pick up the phone unless he had gotten his daily call with Godot in. So...

The man walked into the  cafe thinking about his kids. They would be the age now where they would hang out at these places. If only he could talk to them. But he couldn't. He didn't have the time anymore.

It was a crazy deal. Years ago. He had asked another...

The man with kids proposed a deal. Since the other man who did nothing all day had  time on his hands. Why not give some of it to him?

"That sounds so crazy I might be open to it. What will you give me in return?"

"Money."

"Isn't that just a job?"

"You're right....

Here the dog was shitting again.

Duddeee I gotta go man, you already took a shit like an hour ago.

He pulled a black plastic bag out of his belt, and put his hand through it. He looked at the dog waiting and the dog just looked back.

Come on...

They hadn't planned a meeting spot before heading out. They agreed to call each other and triage live. But his phone was about to die. So he sent a text saying ' meet at the corner of Jacob and Penny '.

When he arrived at the intersection there were about seven...

Will came  home rarely. Rarely enough he questioned why he still called it home.  time was moving fast now. When he found a moment to recount what had happened in the years that had zinged by he would realize that he had spent hardly any of it at home. Hardly...

To do great work one must get going before it's late.

Great work requires time in flow . Frequently beginners struggle to get into flow. So much that they will take the flow whenever it comes, even if it arrives too late.

When is too late for flow? Too close to...

The blue man bobbed into the room followed by a man well dressed in a suit. The blue man crooned holding his hand like he was holding a microphone

"Yesterday, and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard
I know, been that way for all my time "

The kids looked at...

I thought about when my girlfriend's sister got married, and it's already almost two years. That makes you realize that time goes by so fast. And that makes you realize that death will soon be here. It's easy to think that it'll never come and that life is long. But...

After leaving her job, she didn't view time the same. Instead of using the 24 hours she began segmenting each day into six markers. There was no concept of seven o clock anymore.

This was her system:
The rooster crowing in the morning -- 1. The coffee -- 2. The first meal...

As somebody working in the info sector , I spend much of my time on a computer. Even if I were to be hyper disciplined and used computer s exclusively for work, the portion of my week spent on computers would still be significant. That's why I prefer physical books...

The world has always been filled with a lot of shit. Somewhere, someplace there are people dying for no fault of their own. There is always suffering and unfair exploitation. Long time ago you could get by without knowing much of it, only the things you could see around you....

I really liked the ideas spitballed by  Nedzen . It got me thinking about our fixation with tying money and time .

Energy and motivation doesn't strike people across the population at the same time. We have our own rhythms and flows. We can't...
