PLEASANT ANTICIPN

A practical tip to take here is that if you want to slow down time, you should always try to create pleasant anticipation in your life. When you imagine something wonderful is going to happen in the future, you create hope and excitement, both of which can make the present slow down and make it even more pleasant. We will later see that you can sometimes derive more pleasure from anticipating a pleasant event then the actual event itself. Similarly, experiencing negative feelings when dreading an unpleasant future event can sometimes be worse than when the event actually occurs."
