<p>T &#8211; 5:00 and counting&#8230;.</p>
<p>I used to have a digital watch for a Digital age, and perceived them to be superior to analogue watches. Modern digital watches are for modern times &#8211; or so the reasoning went.</p>
<p>&#8230;T- 4:00&#8230;</p>
<p>However, such a view was short sighted as analogue systems have a  benefit I much underestimated .</p>
<p>&#8230;T- 3:00&#8230;<em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>You can see the scale as a continuous range.</em> For example, on a watch you can see the future time lying ahead of the minute hand, and the past that lays behind it.</p>
<p>&#8230;T &#8211; 2:00&#8230;</p>
<p>Using this advantage, I&#8217;ve set my analogue watch five minutes ahead of the actual time.</p>
<p>&#8230;T &#8211; 1:00&#8230;</p>
<p>This continually conditions the mind to see five minutes into the future. It helps re-align my present actions so I&#8217;m in the correct place, or have done what I need to, when the time arrives.</p>
<p>&#8230;0:00 Time out!</p>]]></content:encoded>
