This has been an ongoing debate for the more than hundred years since daylight savings time was first introduced. It seems that most people agree with me and would just like to stick to one. But which one?
The American Association of Sleep Medicine argues that standard time creates better conditions for a healthy lifestyle. Other studies show some correlation between daylight savings time and lower crime rates.
This was a fun and abstract conversation about changing the clocks and the concept of time itself.
Scientist and entrepreneur Mohan Ananda says that “For especially young people, there is a psychological impact right after the change because it becomes dark earlier in the evening. Once they pick one, whether standard time or daylight-saving time, then everybody will get used to it and things will be okay.”
Transformational expert Sara Oblak Speicher noted that “the more freedom that I create in business for myself and in schedule, the more I’m able to be in my natural rhythm. And I notice how miserable I get for a couple of weeks in fall when I wake up still in the darkness.”
Business consultant Chuck Groot told us about the “great debate” in his home of British Columbia. “There’s been a big push because people don’t like those changes. They link having something solid and just go with the flow. We all have a basic circadian rhythm in us which is based on thousands of years of genetics.”
What do you think? Is there still a reason for dealing with the stress on our bodies to change the clocks twice a year?
