I’m a retired brain surgeon and I wanna tell you why you feel like life is passing by. I just need one minute to explain this to you so hang in there.
Repetitive daily routines stop the brain from recording clear detailed memories. When every day looks the same, your brain does not track time the same as a clock does. It tracks change. If nothing new happens then days, months, and years start to blur together.
This is know as Time compression. When life lacks variety, your brain compresses past days together, making it feel like time is sped up.
To stop feeling like life is passing you by, add new experiences to your life. Break routine habits, like changing your daily home routine, taking a different route to work, or trying a new hobby.
Schedule small trips or plan new adventures so your days do not blend together.
Practice mindfulness by staying fully focused on what you are doing right now and not trying to race off to the next task.
Keep a journal and write down happy memories or memorable parts of the day before you go to sleep.
Take deep, calm breaths when you feel anxious or rushed to return your focus to the moment.
You can and you will retrain your brain to not feel like life is passing you by by following these few simple measures.
Since Xabi Alonso arrived, we’ve noticed changes everywhere, incomings, tactics, atmosphere, mentality.
But there’s something far more important happening that might not be obvious from the outside yet: accountability.
Xabi seems like the kind of guy who knows exactly what the standards should be. I’m sure his playing career at the best clubs, under the best managers, taught him that there should be no compromise and no negotiation when it comes to quality and standards.
Under him so far: you’re not at Chelsea’s standard, goodbye.
Don’t perform? Here's the bench.
Don’t take things seriously? You don’t travel.
Make mistakes? Consequences.
Do the job? You get rewarded.
No more free passes. No more getting what you haven’t earned.
At Chelsea, you get what you deserve. And honestly, it feels like we’re finally getting our standards back.
Despite what happened to him at Real Madrid, Xabi Alonso’s reputation as one of the best young coaches remains.
The lure of living in London was a factor behind Alonso’s decision to ignore interest from other clubs. His wife Nagore loves the city, but her approval was a must. Daughters Ane and Emma will make the move, but son Jontxu is studying at university in Spain.
But what was it about Chelsea, who have handed him a four-year contract, that convinced Alonso it was the right step after Madrid?
“It had to be a lot from here (points at his heart and his head) and also from here (points to his gut). I saw it was good timing from the club, good timing for myself, a good opportunity.
“It is a team that has played really well recently and the situation was not as bad as it looked at the end of last season. There is a big potential to improve and let’s see how long (it takes).”
