As someone who is very visual, this is super appealing. Adding it to my wishlist. ⏳⏳⏳The moment you mentioned forgetting to eat, breath, drink: this.

The visual component is a game changer for me! I’d be so interested to hear your experience of it, Erin. I feel like your expertise in product would see things that I don’t

I kept reading 'Time Timer' as 'Time Turner' - but this is a great explaination of time blindness (something I learned in December) and how to beat it.

Timers are the ultimate hack, especially as a game with ourselves

Hi Ved! Haha that’s so interesting you say that - I do feel the TT “turns” time into more time for me. Do you have other tips and tricks for living with “time blindness”??

Not the best person to say (I'm just realising I may have this problem) - but I like to time block on paper + use it as my to do list

Whenever I do that, I just get things done

I chose the fern green option 😎 I’ve newfound time and am struggling to use it effectively. The scheduled has been built - write, gym, read, yoga, chat with friend while hiking. Repeat. Hour blocks. Two hour blocks. Sounds terrifying. I’ve logged off Twitter.

But this I can see. Walk into coffee shop and order medium drip with cream. Take laptop out of bad, log in and then…set the time timer for one hour. Ready - go.

Thanks for sharing, Kat. Thanks for writing in such a moving manner that the image was clear in my brain.

Bought because I read this and it’s been super helpful so far! Setting a timer for 15 mins and doing some work feels like the best way for me to enter flow when I don’t feel very flow-y. Thanks for sharing :)

Hi Rab 👋 That’s awesome, and a good point about entering flow (which I’m pretty much always wanting) So glad to hear it’s helpful!

Ooo let me know what you think, Jisoo! I was initially hesitant to write a product review; I don’t necessarily want to contribute to people buying more stuff they don’t need. But I didn’t even know how much I needed the TT. Also it seems like a very wholesome, multi-generational family business that wants to help children and adults.

...easily the best review of anything i have read all year...amazing to think that just playing with time could be a thing...it might be real or not but simplicity seems to be making a comeback...time to buy pet rock stocks...
