During each day,
a separate time for yourself
Imagine a window of time, arranged each day at a different time, a sort of time-out that you can reserve just for you, an exclusive time. Only you would know how to employ this time that is reserved for yourself.
It is a strategic time, a way to step back, an indispensable time of reflection before taking an action. It is a necessary retreat to then better move forward to reach a goal. Among all the calendars conceived by humanity, there is one, dating back 3,000 years.
Over the week, this Strategic Period changes, not in length, but at the time of day at which it occurs. It is based on the movements of certain heavenly bodies, which, according to the Indian astronomers, are the sun, moon, Mars, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and two points situated at the north-south intersections of the elliptical orbits of the sun and the moon, points named Rahu and Ketu. In Indian mythology, Rahu is the creator of eclipses, the time suspended between darkness and light. Thus, the Rahu Kaal, the period of Rahu, is also a suspended time, a time that varies each day in a very precise manner.
These temporal periods, judiciously arranged, correspond perfectly to the strategic periods of reflection, which are necessary in the daily whirlwind of time. They represent an essential step back, one too often ignored, by stressed executives during the day. These personal times are used for examining options or making choices and decisions, to avoid having to undo and redo what was badly designed or done in a hurry. In terms of management, for example, doesn't reaching our goal require a time of reflection to observe the world around us, to understand its structures, to predict changes and to plan our courses of action? Isn't time itself our primary resource that we must both tame and respect in order to use it in the best possible way? Now, for the first time ever, the Swiss watch brand BorgeauD has created a mechanical complication to remind us of these special daily moments. It is called the SEPTAGRAPH™.
