It’s not always possible to have more time but you can do things that make you feel as if you do. You might choose to do activity you enjoy when you take a break, like reading a book, but this actually makes time seem faster. It’s better to pick activity like helping others, which makes you feel as if you can do more with time you have. Thinking about present time can also help make time feel longer. And in experiment where people concentrated on their breathing for five minutes, people who took long, slow breaths felt time was slower than those who took short breaths. So, taking a long deep breath every now and then is a good idea.
