I LOVED this post. Especially the links you make between the different archetypes on different artworks. I might just approach my day a little different today as a result. Thank you 🤍
This was so interesting - I feel like I have experienced all of these at some point but never thought it's an actual time perspective theory. Will definitely make me more aware of how I think of time!
This is a really sharp observation about how we get stuck waiting for the “right moment” instead of just making. Have you found a specific practice that helps you break that trap?
Mostly the Pomodoro technique. I switch on the timer, focus on something for 20 minutes, then do that 3 more times, and it's an hour's worth of writing or working on an idea. It helps most days, but the days that are truly chaotic, nothing works.
Fascinating post. I have experienced a little of each of these, but I didn't know someone had quantified this phenomenon of time perception. It makes me think of Andy Warhol's quote of importing a boss from the business world into the art world to have something that grounds you and reminds you when to shift from artist to business person.
Hi Shagun, I’m so so glad I followed your incredible platform.
Honestly, I sat down and read this article because … I realised deep down I “struggle” with what you have written and I’m always trying to overcome. “Were you a Researcher lost in the physics of light? An Archivist mourning a past style? Or a Visionary paralyzed by a 5-year plan?”.
I’m not sure why these creative problems grew bigger in my process but Thank you for providing a solution source for me to go and understand further.
I recently took a trip where it involved climbing mountains and the notes I had made was am I the creative that needs to make faster decisions, the mountain climb served as a metaphor. I can’t wait to share my story.
I meant to reply earlier, but I am struggling with future-facing tasks, such as engaging with my readers. So here I am, 6 days late replying to your message. Thank you for sharing your temporal perspective, and I love the climbing mountain metaphor. And thank you for reading. Comments like yours keep me motivated.

Amazing. Thanks!
so true!!!!!
Reading this at a time in my life where I’m thinking and rethinking my creative pursuits — super helpful!
Thank you!!

I would love to import a boss from the business world to help me with the business side of things :)
Andy was right!😸 Artists need direction. Finding that manager that steers the artist rather order him is a rare asset to have.
