There is you in the middle, experiencing past you, and future you in the present moment. But this you, is not just placed in the middle, it is placed in the beginning and also in the end of time modality in relation to yourself, events, and relationships. Now this you as a person experiences power that doesn’t have much force, power that has some force and power that has lots of force. You will be travelling from past to future using these powers. Lets imagine that our small power helps with determining present (as it is about our past experiences), our middle power helps linking present to future (as we are forward looking creatures and wanting to improve), and big power helps with choosing where we are heading (as this gains momentum from our previous power forces and being forward looking). These forces are all the same material but different intensity, depending on the person looking at past, present or future.
Our mental health and time modality are dependant to our relations and situations. Being in the moment is a construction of time and our relation to it, therefore logically our moment maybe placed in past, present or future. Our connectedness to the moment is not something we have to gain, but it is something we need to feel, accept and be part of. Our outer and inner reality is dependent on our connections. The inner reality is dependant on the connection to build our perception; this is because our motivation and directionality is important in creating our perception. The outer reality is dependant on our connection to our influence and change of relations and situations.
This shows that central to our mental health is our movement away from our inner reality towards our outer reality, and from outer reality towards our inner reality. So there is elements of monism and holism in our outlook of reality in relation to time. We can understand ourselves through reductionism as a form of deductive reasoning (Which is our power to imagine ourselves in relation to ourselves).
Therefore we can say that more awareness of ourselves through the mentioned deductive mechanism, more we improve our innate ability. This helps us to improve our power to face time modalities of our past, present and future. Therefore there is a movement of power back and force dependant on our understanding of ourselves in relation to time. When this happens outside of expertise and our knowledge domain then we begin to experience and try events and relations using inductive reasoning.
In turn this inner deductive, and outer inductive reasoning feeds our abductive reasoning (our middle power self). To evaluate what is discussed, we can say that if hypothetically we place ourself in middle of the time, we have inner deductive self, linked to our past, outer inductive self linked to our future, and abductive self linked to our present (a combination of our inductive and deductive reasoning). This is our intuitive self.
Our mental health is reliant on these selves and their relation to time, and self concept. We can help ourselves to be more congruent by practicing creativity and authenticity. This is achieved when in our life dealings we have choices to be in our time modality in relation to reality, and therefore free to experience and free to exercise our power of being and growing. This is because we place ourselves in accordance to our creative perception of our reality, and the more we believe in ourselves and our self worth, more awareness we perceive of reality. This in return will improve our self concept and mental health as a circular motion.
