Time Perception
The Tyranny of Time
Clock Time versus Event Time
Is it better to live in ‘clock time’ or ‘event time’?
We're ruled by the clock. What does it cost us?
In praise of being late: The upside of spurning the clock
If scheduling causes you conflict, maybe you’re on “event time”
What how you view time says about you | Anne-Laure Sellier | TEDxHECParis
Do you stick to a set schedule, or have a looser relationship to the clock? It can affect more than how you plan your day
Not a clock watcher? These steps can ensure you don't upset those who are -- If you find yourself taking longer than expected to complete tasks, you might be an “event-timer" who plans activities relative to each other rather than by the clock.

Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) -- the accumulated knowledge, practices, and beliefs that indigenous and local communities develop over generations through direct interaction with their environment. It encompasses a deep understanding of ecosystems, relationships between living beings, and sustainable resource management. TEK is not just a body of information; it's a way of knowing, deeply rooted in culture, spirituality, and a holistic worldview that emphasizes respect for nature.
